I'm doing a unit testing for my javascript codes. I prefer to use a headless browser for easier running. It goes well when I installed some dependencies but when I install phantomjs, it has an error.

C:\Phantomjs>npm install -g phantomjs npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: Package renamed to phantomjs-prebuilt.

What should I do?

The simplest installation method is

  1. Install NodeJS
  2. Using Node's package manager install phantomjs: npm -g install phantomjs-prebuilt

After installation, you may use phantom as simple as:

driver = webdriver.PhantomJS() # or add to your PATH
driver.set_window_size(1024, 768) # optional
driver.get('https://google.com/')
driver.save_screenshot('screen.png') # save a screenshot to disk
sbtn = driver.find_element_by_css_selector('button.gbqfba')
sbtn.click()

If your system path environment variable isn't set correctly, you'll need to specify the exact path as an argument to webdriver.PhantomJS(). Replace this:

driver = webdriver.PhantomJS() # or add to your PATH

... with the following:

driver = webdriver.PhantomJS(executable_path='/usr/local/lib/node_modules/phantomjs/lib/phantom/bin/phantomjs')

Try run npm install phantomjs-prebuilt

phantomjs name changed to phantomjs-prebuilt on Pre-2.0 version release.
