What is the initiate browser in PHP like ROR?

Question

Ruby provides us methotds to initiate browser, open url in that browser and parse the page contents

browser = Watir::Browser.new(:firefox)
browser.goto("http://example.com")
browser.wait

results = browser.text

parsed_results = JSON.parse(results)
Can we do such a thing in PHP? If yes then how it is possible?
