 - **Zero-config first run: `selenium-boot.yml` is now optional** — with no default `selenium-boot.yml` in the working directory or on the classpath, the framework runs on built-in defaults (`browser.name: chrome`, `execution.mode: local`, `timeouts.explicit: 10`, `timeouts.pageLoad: 30`) and prints one `[Selenium Boot] No selenium-boot.yml found — running with built-in defaults ...` notice line. Fields a file omits (and an empty file) fall back to the same defaults; `browser.name` is only defaulted when `browser.matrix` is not set, and `SeleniumBootDefaults` overrides still take precedence over the built-ins. Nothing that was an error before stops being one: a requested profile (`-Dselenium.boot.profile`) or explicit path (`-Dselenium.boot.config`) whose file is missing still throws, so a typo never silently runs on defaults, and present-but-invalid values (an unknown `execution.mode`, a negative timeout) still fail validation. Adds `ConfigurationLoader.load(File, ClassLoader)` (working directory and classpath supplied, for tests). (#66)
 - **Terminal `Locator` actions wait for the element and re-resolve it on every poll** — `click()`, `type()`, `append()`, `getText()`, `getAttribute()`, `hover()`, `scrollIntoView()`, `jsClick()` and `element()` used to look the element up once and act on that cached reference, so a page that re-rendered it in between surfaced as a `StaleElementReferenceException`, and a locator that matched nothing yet threw immediately. They now resolve the locator from scratch on each poll, retrying on a stale or not-yet-present element until `timeouts.explicit` elapses. **Behavior change:** a locator that matches nothing is now retried for up to `timeouts.explicit` instead of failing at once. If it never matches, the call still ends in a `LocatorException` (cause: `TimeoutException`), so existing catches keep working; an element that exists but never becomes visible/clickable still times out with a `TimeoutException`, as before. `isVisible()`, `isHidden()`, `isEnabled()` and `count()` still never wait, and `rows()` inherits the wait for its table through `element()`.

(#67, #68)
+- **JUnit Jupiter API bumped 5.10.2 → 6.1.3** (`junit-jupiter-api`, optional dependency of the JUnit 5 bridge). `junit-platform-launcher` is now bumped to match (6.1.3, was 1.10.2), closing the pairing gap left by #64. Verified both directions against the consumer integration suite (11/11 real-browser JUnit 5 tests): a consumer still on JUnit 5.10.2 + launcher 1.10.2 keeps working unchanged, and a consumer on JUnit 6 (jupiter 6.1.3 + launcher 6.1.3) now works too. (#64)
+- **Clearer error when `execution.baseUrl` is unset** — `open()` and `open(String)` now throw `execution.baseUrl is not set — add it to selenium-boot.yml, or navigate with getDriver().get(url)` instead of `baseURL is null or empty`. Message only; still an `IllegalStateException`. The getting-started guide now says Step 3 needs the Step 2 file, since zero-config has no default `baseUrl`. (#77)
