Why isn't there a headless BDD testing engine like ruby's capybara for java?

Question

Why isn't there a java version of ruby's capaybara ( https://github.com/jnicklas/capybara ) that would work with tomcat or something?

I know we have selenium but it is very slow and it requires a browser to fireup.

Is there a technical reason for this? Or it does exist?

I'm hoping there is something to speed of browser integration testing for java, spring mvc application.

Perhaps HtmlUnit is an option that works for you
