End-to-end Testing with Shadow DOM

As the web component specs continue to be developed, there has been little information on how to test them. In particular the /deep/ combinator has been deprecated in Shadow DOM 1.0. This is particularly painful since most end-to-end testing frameworks rely on elements being discoverable by XPath or calls to querySelector. Elements in Shadow DOM are selectable by neither.
