Eventually I want to try migrating GMRA to React so we can more easily manage application state and all the different button components. Automated testing should help take some of the pain out of this. I chose the cypress framework because it seemed like the easiest to set up for testing extensions.
TIL that checking in node_modules is generally not a good idea. Added a .gitignore template that covers this and more. I guess download/contributing instructions will have to change? I'm not yet sure how exactly, though.

Also gets rid of some files I accidentally created in this branch (buttons.js and popup.js)

Cypress will allow us to automate tests that we used to run manually with Chrome Dev Tools, speeding up development.
No.
Only Mac, although I didn't change any of the source code so things should be fine.
Yes.
Running sample.spec.js in Cypress
Apologies that this is one really big commit. I meant to add the actual tests separately but due to some rollbacks I did to get Git Large File Storage working, it all got lumped into one. Sample.spec.js contains a draft test for going through the pre-walkthrough, which needs to be executed before other debugging can begin.
