Questions tagged [slimerjs]

SlimerJS is a scriptable browser, aiming to keep the same API as PhantomJS, but built on top of Gecko (i.e. Firefox) instead of on top of WebKit.

SlimerJS allows you to interact with a web page through external JavaScript code:

  • Opening a webpage
  • Clicking on links
  • Modifying the content...

It is useful to do functional tests, page automation, network monitoring, screen capture, etc.

SlimerJS is similar to PhantomJs, except that it runs Gecko, the browser engine of Mozilla Firefox, instead of Webkit (and it is not yet truly headless).
