What is SlimerJS?

SlimerJS is a free and open-source browser tailored for web development, allowing users to manipulate web pages through external JavaScript scripts. It offers a wide range of capabilities, such as opening web pages, clicking links, and modifying content, which proves beneficial for functional testing, automating interactions, monitoring network activity, capturing screenshots, and scraping online data. Unlike PhantomJS, SlimerJS operates using Gecko, Mozilla Firefox's rendering engine, rather than WebKit, and it supports both headless and non-headless operation modes. The APIs available in SlimerJS are somewhat akin to those in PhantomJS, though there are significant differences in their respective functionalities. Nevertheless, most scripts initially created for PhantomJS remain compatible with SlimerJS, making it easier for developers to transition between the two platforms. This flexibility ultimately improves the overall scripting experience for web developers, allowing them to choose the tools that best suit their needs. As a result, SlimerJS serves as a valuable asset in the web development toolkit.
