CasperJS is no longer actively maintained. Navigation scripting and testing utility for PhantomJS and SlimerJS
Next version should be 1.0.0 stable.
Tester.assertField() method, which can now tests for other field types than inputs.Casper.getCurrentUrl() could misbehave with encoded urlsCasper.echo() to print a message to the casper console from the remote DOM environmentCasper.waitForText() to wait for a given text to be present in page HTML contentsClientUtils.getFieldValue()
injector module is now deprecated, but kept for backward compatibility purpose.waitTimeout options, removed defaultWaitTimeout option.die() anymore in testsrequire('casper').create().start('http://www.google.fr/', function(response) {
require('utils').dump(response);
}).run();
That gives:
$ casperjs dump-headers.js
{
"contentType": "text/html; charset=UTF-8",
"headers": [
{
"name": "Date",
"value": "Thu, 18 Oct 2012 08:17:29 GMT"
},
{
"name": "Expires",
"value": "-1"
},
// ... lots of other headers
],
"id": 1,
"redirectURL": null,
"stage": "end",
"status": 200,
"statusText": "OK",
"time": "2012-10-18T08:17:37.068Z",
"url": "http://www.google.fr/"
}
To fetch a particular header by its name:
require('casper').create().start('http://www.google.fr/', function(response) {
this.echo(response.headers.get('Date'));
}).run();
That gives:
$ casperjs dump-single-header.js

The documentation has been updated accordingly.
onWaitTimeout option has been added, to allow defining a default behavior when a waitFor* function times out.debugHTML() can have a selector passed; added getHTML()

Casper.evaluate() to use phantomjs >= 1.6 native one. As a consequence, the injector module is marked as deprecated.casper test commandCasper.currentHTTPStatus now defaults to null when resource are loaded using the file:// protocol--no-colors option to the casper test command to skip output colorationevent.preventDefault() was used.Casper.getPageContent() to access raw page body contents on non-html received content-types.casper selftest command has been added as well.escape to encodeURIComponent for downloading binaries via POSTrun() calls (more explanations)--pre and --post options to the casperjs test command to load test files before and after the execution of testsuitecasperjs executableCasper.exit returned this after calling phantom.exit() which may caused PhantomJS to hangClientUtils.getDocumentHeight()

GET requestsTester.assertNotEquals() (@juliangruber)= (equals sign) were not being parsed properlyCapser.base64encode() from some eventsos.execvp() instead of subprocess.Popen() (@jart):
This patch fixes a bug where casperjs' python launcher process won't pass along kill signals to the phantomjs subprocess. This patch works by using an exec system call which causes the phantomjs subprocess to completely replace the casperjs parent process (while maintaining the same pid). This patch also has the added benefit of saving 10 megs or so of memory because the python process is discarded.
