Protractor config

If you are using protractor for running test the configuration has to be according to the protractor configuration. A base configuration will be provided by after-work.js but this can be extended as shown below.

Override default configs

aw.config.js

'use strict';

const path = require('path');
const extend = require('extend');
const util = require('util');

module.exports = function initConfig(baseConfig) {
  const config = {
    baseUrl: 'http://server:1337/',
    artifactsPath: 'test/integration/__artifacts__',
    seleniumAddress: 'http://localhost:4446/wd/hub',
    capabilities: {
      browserName: 'chrome',
      unexpectedAlertBehaviour: 'accept',
      chromeOptions: {
        args: ['--disable-infobars']
      }
    },
    mochaOpts: {
      bail: true
    },
    multiCapabilities: [],
    specs: [path.resolve(__dirname, './**/*.spec.js')],
    beforeLaunch() {},
    onComplete() {
      return browser
        .manage()
        .logs()
        .get('browser')
        .then(browserLog => {
          console.log(`log: ${util.inspect(browserLog)}`);
        });
    },
    configureHttpServer() {
      return {
        http: {
          port: 8080
        }
      };
    }
  };
  return extend(true, baseConfig, config);
};

Protractor plugins

There are two Protractor plugins developed and bundled together with after-work.js:

• Screenshooter: enables you to take a screenshot of an element and compare it to a saved baseline using an expect statement

it('should match baseline', async () => {
  expect( await browser.takeImageOf( <element> ) ).to.matchImageOf( <baseline> );
});

• Custom Reporter: a mocha reporter that saves the test results into JSON. A HTML report is generated after the test is completed with the ability to show the different states of a rendering (Screenshooter) test.
