Package name: CasperJS
Version: 1.0.4
URL: http://casperjs.org/
License: MIT

CasperJS is an open source navigation scripting & testing utility
written in Javascript for the PhantomJS WebKit headless browser and
SlimerJS (Gecko). It eases the process of defining a full navigation
scenario and provides useful high-level functions, methods & syntactic
sugar for doing common tasks such as:

defining & ordering browsing navigation steps
filling & submitting forms
clicking & following links
capturing screenshots of a page (or part of it)
testing remote DOM
logging events
downloading resources, including binary ones
writing functional test suites, saving results as JUnit XML
scraping Web contents



I require it in order to be able to run the javascript testsuite of
the upcoming version 2 of IPython, but I have no clue about javascript
so I do not fell comfortable packaging it myself. I can help out if
needed.

Hi,

A long time ago, you expressed interest in packaging casperjs. Unfortunately,
it seems that it did not happen. In Debian, we try not to keep ITP bugs open
for a too long time, as it might cause other prospective maintainers to
refrain from packaging the software.

This is an automatic email to change the status of casperjs from ITP
(Intent to Package) to RFP (Request for Package), because this bug hasn't seen
any activity during the last 12 months.

If you are still interested in packaging casperjs, please send a mail to
<control@bugs.debian.org> with:

 retitle 738827 ITP: casperjs -- navigation scripting & testing utility for PhantomJS
 owner 738827 !
 thanks

It is also a good idea to document your progress on this ITP from time to
time, by mailing <738827@bugs.debian.org>.  If you need guidance on how to
package this software, please reply to this email, and/or contact the
debian-mentors@lists.debian.org mailing list.

Thank you for your interest in Debian,
