What is CasperJS?

Powered by the PhantomJS WebKit headless browser and SlimerJS (Gecko), CasperJS is a versatile open source navigation scripting and testing utility written in JavaScript. It streamlines the process of defining comprehensive navigation scenarios and provides a suite of high-level functions, methods, and syntactic sugar to simplify common tasks such as page interaction, data extraction, and automated testing. CasperJS empowers developers to efficiently automate complex web interactions, extract relevant information, and validate application behavior across different browsers without the need for a full-fledged graphical user interface
