Using Safari Technology Preview with Selenium WebDriver

I recently was attempting to diagnose an issue with the Safari Driver, the component of Safari which allows remote automation using the WebDriver protocol. In order to confirm whether my issue was a bug, I wanted to run the same test using a current Safari Technology Preview build and compare the results to Apple’s released Safari versions. I wasn’t able to find very clear examples or documentation about this, however, and wanted to be able to test it both with a local safaridriver as well as via Selenium.
