Mechanize
Mechanize for Scala is a programmable web robot, useful for testing and scraping websites. It understands both the HTTP protocol and HTML, thanks to Apache HttpClient and the Validator.nu HTML Parser.

sbt update publish-local
and add the following dependency to your project:
"org.smop" %% "mechanize" % "0.1-SNAPSHOT"
