How to call casper.start() multiple times

I would like to call casper.start() multiple times in my script.

I have tried:

var ids = [1,6,13];

ids.forEach(function(id) {
    casper.start('http://localhost/mypage?id='+id, function() { });
});

casper.then(function() {
....

However, only the last id gets executed.

It is possible to call casper.start() multiple times? If so, how?

start() should only be called once for one casper object. You see only one call, because a second call to start() resets the internal state. You can use thenOpen() to open multiple pages:

var ids = [1,6,13];

casper.start();

ids.forEach(function(id) {
    casper.thenOpen('http://localhost/mypage?id='+id, function() {
        this.capture("id.png");
    });
});

casper.run();
