Playwright
Playwright is a framework for Web Testing and Automation. It allows testing Chromium, Firefox and WebKit with a single API.
It's built by the founders of Puppeteer which came out of the Chrome team. Some things I like about it:
1. It's reliable and implements auto-waiting as described in the article. You can use modern async/await syntax and it ensures elements are a) attached to the DOM, visible, stable (not animating), can receive events, and are enabled: https://playwright.dev/docs/actionability
2. It's fast — It creates multiple processes and runs tests in parallel, unlike e.g. Cypress.
3. It's cross-browser — supports Chrome, Safari, and Firefox out-of-the-box.

For PHP-based applications I've used mPDF[0], which generates PDFs from HTML without using a browser. I'm sure it can't handle all the CSS bells/whistles that a "modern" website uses, but it's worked well for me.
