2012-10-23, v1.0.0-RC3

Important Changes & Caveats

  • the injector module is now deprecated, but kept for backward compatibility purpose.
  • BC BREAK: fixes #220, #237 - added a waitTimeout options, removed defaultWaitTimeout option.
  • BC BREAK (for the better): fixes #249 - default timeout functions don't die() anymore in tests
  • BC BREAK (for the better): merged #188 - Easy access to current response object; You can now access the current response object as the first parameter of step callbacks:
require('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
Thu, 18 Oct 2012 08:26:34 GMT

The documentation has been updated accordingly.

Bugfixes & enhancements

  • merged #234 - New Windows Loader written in Batch. Python is no more a requirement for using CasperJS on Windows. New installation instructions are available.

  • Casper.resourceExists() and related functions now checks for non HTTP-404 received responses.
  • fixed #167 - fixed opening truncated/uncomplete root urls may give erroneous HTTP statuses
  • closes #205 - debugHTML() can have a selector passed; added getHTML()
  • closes #230 - added ClientUtils.getElementsBound() and Casper.getElementsBound()
  • fixed #235 - updated Casper.evaluate() to use phantomjs >= 1.6 native one. As a consequence, the injector module is marked as deprecated.

  • fixed #254 - fix up one use of qsa, hit when filling forms with missing elements
  • fixed edge case when current document url couldn't be properly decoded

2012-10-01, v1.0.0-RC2

Important Changes & Caveats

  • PhantomJS 1.6 is now the minimal requirement, PhantomJS 1.7 is supported.
  • CasperJS continues to ship with its own implementation of CommonJS' module pattern, due to the way it has to work to offer its own executable. While the implementations are nearly the same, 100% compatibility is not guaranteed.

Bugfixes & enhancements

  • fixed #119 - Casper.currentHTTPStatus now defaults to null when resource are loaded using the file:// protocol
  • fixed #130 - added a --no-colors option to the casper test command to skip output coloration

  • fixed #164 - ability to force CLI parameters as strings (see related documentation).
  • fixed #178 - added Casper.getPageContent() to access raw page body contents on non-html received content-types.
  • fixed #180 - CasperJS tests are now run against a local HTTP test server. A new casper selftest command has been added as well.
  • fixed #189 - fixed invalid XML due to message colorization
  • fixed #197 & #240 - Added new tester methods:
  • fixed #202 - Fix test status timeouts when running multiple suites
  • fixed #204 - Fix for when the url is changed via javascript
  • fixed #210 - Changed escape to encodeURIComponent for downloading binaries via POST
  • fixed #216 - Change clientutils to be able to set a global scope
  • fixed #219 - ease chaining of run() calls (more explanations)
  • fixed #222 & #211 - Change mouse event to include an X + Y value for click position
  • fixed #231 - added --pre and --post options to the casperjs test command to load test files before and after the execution of testsuite
  • fixed #232 - symlink resolution in the ruby version of the casperjs executable
  • fixed #236 - fixed Casper.exit returned this after calling phantom.exit() which may caused PhantomJS to hang
  • fixed #252 - better form.fill() error handling
  • added ClientUtils.getDocumentHeight()
  • added toString() and status() methods to Casper prototype.

2012-05-12, v0.6.7

  • fixes #107: client utils were possibly not yet being injected and available when calling Capser.base64encode() from some events
  • merged PR #96: make python launcher use os.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.
