Is phantomjs in the roadmap?

wct --browsers phantomjs
Unknown/unsupported local browsers: phantomjs

Hmm, not really on the roadmap, no - but I wouldn't be opposed to patches for it.

Mostly, it looks like there's a bit of work to get the packaged selenium-standalone to launch properly, as well as launching phantom to launch w/ the correct args as well.

Also, I would expect that there are sharp edges with phantom (really, QtWebKit) and support for web components polyfills; chances are things aren't going to behave exactly as expected.

+1. I was happy when I used karma+phantomjs, so I would like do the same thing there

Alright, with WCT 2.2 nearly out; it seems doable to write a wct-phantom plugin to enable this. Probably not going to be something we'll want to tackle directly, though

Why was this closed? Is someone working on wct-phantom? It's a pretty important thing for continuous integration if you don't want to use Sauce stuff.

@alexanderatallah I don't think phantomjs will even run Polymer or webcomponents at this time. According to this you may have to wait until PhantomJS V3 to use webcomponents with it.

@alexanderatallah also, it's not something we're going to have time to build ourselves, but with the plugin system, it should be possible to make a plugin that allows WCT to run on top of phantom. We'd definitely accept issues for any shortcomings w/ the plugin interface to make that easier

[rafalradomski]

Any news about that?

In PhantomJS now supported?
