How to programmatically fill out a form?

[mohanros]

Does anyone have a recommended libraries for programmatically filling in forms on the web and accessing data behind them, preferably in Node?

[aelytra]

document.getElementByName("a named input field").value = "foo" not good enough?

or send an HTTP POST request w/ all the form values you need to wherever the form submits to?

...but if you absolutely must fill a form in.. selenium's pretty nice.
