Then there should be a way to represent a web page content as we see it rather than as HTML.
You mean as a screenshot? That won't make your task easier, not at all.
There should be some possibility to do this in Perl.

Perl is Turing complete - sure you can do $this in perl. But sometimes it's not the easiest way to do $this.

For example I do this with Quick Test Pro.

What is "this"? I didn't know what "Quick Test Pro" is, so I looked it up - seems to be some kind of testing framework. Well, we have such things in perl also, like Test::More and many more test modules. But I'm a bit confused because I don't see a relation to your original question.

Maybe you should just explain what you want to achieve in the end, not ask for steps on the way that you think are necessary to achieve your goal. See XY Problem.
