Codeception phpbrowser using javascript

Long story short, I have a web application where i have a button which triggers 2 async ajax calls. The 2 ajax calls use a parameter which is actually a javascript variable set in the application. When the two ajax calls are done, a third ajax call is performed using the result from one of the initial ajax calls. This third ajax call, when done, adds a new div in the content.

So far I used CodeCeption with WebDriver, where the above functionality was easily simulated by two simple actions:

$I->click(button)
$I->waitForElementVisible(newdiv)

I am now trying to simulate the same using PhpBrowser but I'm not certain how to approach this:

1. Since PhpBrowser doesn't use javascript, how can I send the javascript param in the 2 ajax calls?

2. Since there is no waitforelement function available in PhpBrowser, do I need to manually trigger all 3 ajax calls? Or will PhpBrowser be able to manually execute the callback of the two ajax calls and automatically trigger the third one?

PhpBrowser does not execute any javascript.

You have to hardcode or calculate a value of your "javascript variable" in your test's PHP code.

And use sendAjaxRequest methods: http://codeception.com/docs/modules/PhpBrowser#sendAjaxGetRequest
