        browser.get('http://.../consumer/2/indexinfo');

i don't get it because of the result a json not use element

Answer 1

You can use request to get a json response:

require("request")({
  url: 'http://.../consumer/2/indexinfo',
  json: true
}, function (error, response, body) {
  if (!error && response.statusCode === 200) {
    console.log(body);
  }
})

Answer 2

Protractor is used for end to end (e2e) testing, with one end being user interaction (like a click), and the other end being DOM changes (like text updating). You should be asserting for DOM changes like text updating, not testing the JSON object used to update the DOM.

If you must test the response though, it is possible via the NPM module request .
