README
CasperJS
Important note: the
masterbranch hosts the development version of CasperJS, which is now pretty stable and should be the right version to use if you ask me. Users interested in a pretty stable, recent version working with PhantomJS 2.0 and newer should choose the packaged 1.1.0 and following releases.The
1.0branch is now obsolete. Please note that
- it is only recommended if you need to keep old production tests running that could do with the now unmaintained PhantomJS 1.9
- 1.0 tests unfortunately have to be run manually using the
casperjs selftestcommandNote that all versions up to and including 1.1-beta3 do not support PhantomJS 2.0 and newer.

CasperJS is a navigation scripting & testing utility for PhantomJS and SlimerJS (still experimental). It eases the process of defining a full navigation scenario and provides useful high-level functions, methods & syntactic sugar for doing common tasks such as:
- defining & ordering navigation steps
- filling forms
- clicking links
- capturing screenshots of a page (or an area)
- making assertions on remote DOM
- logging & events
- downloading resources, even binary ones
- catching errors and react accordingly
- writing functional test suites, exporting results as JUnit XML (xUnit)

Show me some code!
First install CasperJS, we'll use 1.1 beta here.
Sample test to see if some dropdown can be opened:
casper.test.begin('a twitter bootstrap dropdown can be opened', 2, function(test) {
casper.start('http://getbootstrap.com/2.3.2/javascript.html#dropdowns', function() {
test.assertExists('#navbar-example');
this.click('#dropdowns .nav-pills .dropdown:last-of-type a.dropdown-toggle');
this.waitUntilVisible('#dropdowns .nav-pills .open', function() {
test.pass('Dropdown is open');
});
}).run(function() {
test.done();
});
});
