I’m super biased in this, having spend considerable time programming against PhantomJs, Selenium and now Headless Chrome / Puppeteer for my startup https://checklyhq.com https://checklyhq.com. This whole area of automating browser interactions is an extremely hard thing to get stable. In my experience, the recent Puppeteer library takes the cake but PhantomJs is the spiritual father here. I will not talk about Selenium for blood pressure reasons

Have you seen _my_ startup (https://browserless.io/ https://browserless.io/). The stability part is something I’m trying to solve once and for all with this project.

Having dabbled with both selenium and phantom, I can vouch for both being PITA to work with.
