I'm trying to run protractor as a gulp task but I can't get it to work.
I've tried the gulp-protractor plugin like this:
gulp.task('protractor-server', function (done) {
var called = false;
nodemon({
script: 'test/e2e/server/server.js',
stdout: true,
ignore: ['app/**', 'node_modules'],
watch: 'test/e2e/**/*.js'
})
.on('start', function () {
if (!called) {
done();
}
called = true;
});
});
gulp.task('run-protractor', ['protractor-server'], function (done) {
return gulp.src(['test/e2e/**/*.js'])
.pipe(protractor({
configFile: __dirname + '/protractor.conf.js'
}))
.on('error', function (error) {
console.log('gulp error: ', error);
throw error;
});
});
However, firstly why do I need to use gulp.src(['test/e2e/**/*.js'])
and then pipe protractor? Is it not possible to run protractor by it self since i have specified the spec files in the protractor.conf-file. (fyi I did try that but it didn't work).
Secondly, when I try and run like specified in the above snippet I keep getting errors like this: WARNING - pattern C:\\[absolutepath]\\test\\e2e\\[subfolder]\\[filename].js did not match any files.
for all files that exist in the e2e folder and sub-folders. What could be the reason for this?
this is my protractor conf file:
exports.config = {
specs: [
'test/e2e/[subfolder]/*.page.js',
'test/e2e/[subfolder]/*.spec.js'
],
baseUrl: 'http://localhost:3000'
};
If I start the server separately and the run protractor from the command prompt it works fine. I was thinking to use child_process.spawn and start a protractor child process but i haven't gotten that to work either. Any suggestions on how to start protractor from a gulp task?
No need to use 'test/e2e/**/*.js'] Provide all configuration in protractor.conf.js file it self.
You can use task like gulp.task('run-protractor', ['run-server','run-webdriver'], function (done) { //run protractor conf here })
create run-server and run-webdriver gulp taks, test them separately once they are working, utilize them into run-protractor task.
