Automating Interaction with website - Rails

Question

I'm trying to automate logging in and posting some stuff on a website, but I can't use Mechanize since there are many javascript actions involved. I was wondering if there were any other gems/tools to use that support javascript.

I tried Watir as well, but it involves having a browser, and I would like a browser-less option.

Thank you,

There are several options:

• PhantomJS
• capybara-webkit
• Selenium webdriver
