Casperjs, which runs on top of PhantomJS has been nicer to use for me. Also Nightmare(http://www.nightmarejs.org/ http://www.nightmarejs.org/). The problem I always had with PhantomJS is that it's more difficult than it should be to automatize very simple website interactions. In Nightmare's homepage you can see a comparison between a script made in PhantomJS and one in Nightmare.

NightmareJS isn't headless, which is a dealbreaker for me. I'm automating in environments that don't have X.

  Yeah, that's the problem with Nightmare. It's great otherwise.

    Witty comment about it being a Nightmare.
