Summary

"Any phantom deserves a resurrection."

Resurrectio is a Chrome extension allowing to record a sequence of browser actions and to produce the corresponding CasperJS script.

Resurrectio uses minimalist and functional-oriented selectors, so recorded sequences keep valid across layout and design changes.

As CasperJS is based on PhantomJS, a headless WebKit engine, it evaluates Javascript, recorded sequences are not be limited to pure HTML interactions, targeted pages javascript-supported behaviors will be accurately reproduced.

Resurrectio also provides a way to produce screenshots alongside your test scenario, and can export comments + screenshots in ReStructuredText format in order to generate documentation automatically from the test sequences.

NEW FEATURE: Resurrectio allows to run the recorded script directly on casperbox.com.

WOW this makes life so much easier!

Misses steps out and the ones it does have do not work. Perhaps it may be use to some users.

Missing a lot of interactions but the code is quiet clean. Not to bad plugin and helpful to create test scenarios. Much better than writing everything from scratch. We use this tool to get a rough click path and improve it manually to get an accurate test case.
