Functional or acceptance testing

• keywords: node js WWW::Mechanize
• ​Is there a Node.js equivalent of Perl's WWW::Mechanize?

  What you're looking for is a scriptable browser. In decreasing order of popularity, the options are:

  • ​PhantomJS - head & shoulders above all. A headless WebKit.
  • ​Zombie - more lightweight
  • ​slimerjs - like PhantomJS but runs Gecko
  • ​chimera - like PhantomJS but doesn't need to run an external process
  • ​mechanize-js, which lacks documentation and has far less traction than any of the above alternatives

• ​phantomjs ​https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PhantomJS ​How to install PhantomJS on Ubuntu ​http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/phantomjs
• Zombie 4.x is tested to work with io.js 1.6 or later. If you need to use Node 0.12 or earlier, consider using Zombie 2.x. ((Should work with Node 4)) keyword: zombie headless browser ; Zombie node site:debian.org

  $ npm install zombie --save-dev
