You can use Codeception to test Javascript, like DOM manipulations and Ajax requests. Out of the box it can manipulate DOM elements but can't execute Javascript code, like most testing frameworks. But it gives you the option to use a WebDriver, to connect to a headless browser, and mimic a user browsing your website. It gives you some options: Selenium2, ZombieJS and, the easiest to configure, PhantomJS.

###Install PhantomJS

Just run those commands to install it:

sudo apt-get update
