php-webdriver – Selenium WebDriver bindings for PHP
Description
Php-webdriver library is PHP language binding for Selenium WebDriver, which allows you to control web browsers from PHP.
This library is compatible with Selenium server version 2.x, 3.x and 4.x.
The library supports JsonWireProtocol and also implements experimental support of W3C WebDriver. The W3C WebDriver support is not yet full-featured, however it should allow to control Firefox via Geckodriver and new versions of Chrome and Chromedriver with just a slight limitations.
The concepts of this library are very similar to the "official" Java, .NET, Python and Ruby bindings from the Selenium project.

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
Then install the library:
php composer.phar require facebook/webdriver
Getting started
Start Server
The required server is the selenium-server-standalone-#.jar
file provided here: http://selenium-release.storage.googleapis.com/index.html
Download and run the server by replacing # with the current server version. Keep in mind you must have Java 8+ installed to run this command.
java -jar selenium-server-standalone-#.jar
Create a Browser Session
When creating a browser session, be sure to pass the url of your running server.
Launch Chrome
Install latest Chrome and Chromedriver.
The chromedriver
binary must be placed in system PATH
directory, otherwise you must provide the path when starting Selenium server
(eg. java -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver="/path/to/chromedriver" -jar selenium-server-standalone-#.jar
).
Launch Firefox
Install latest Firefox and Geckodriver.
The geckodriver
binary must be placed in system PATH
directory, otherwise you must provide the path when starting Selenium server
(eg. java -Dwebdriver.gecko.driver="/path/to/geckodriver" -jar selenium-server-standalone-#.jar
).

Testing framework integration
To take advantage of automatized testing you may want to integrate php-webdriver to your testing framework. There are some projects already providing this:
- Steward integrates php-webdriver directly to PHPUnit, and provides parallelization
- Codeception testing framework provides BDD-layer on top of php-webdriver in its WebDriver module
- You can also check out this blogpost + demo project, describing simple PHPUnit integration
