This repository is part of a tutorial regarding Protractor and Angular.js 1.x which I am currently working on. It will cover a rather huge amount of basics and (technical) details, aiming at newbies. However, it is still incomplete and thus not published. If you feel a little bit adventurous, you might as well jump in and see what happens.

Anyway, before you can do anything with this repository, you should clone or download it (pretty obvious, indeed). However, some further instructions ...

Prerequisites

You will need recent versions of

  • Node.js for the task runner and protractor itself (>=4 is required for protractor w.r.t. the docs - see the "Breaking Changes" section)
  • Java for the Selenium Webdriver part of protractor (I'd suggest to go with JDK/JRE8 - please note that both the Oracle and OpenJDK/JRE versions should work properly)

installed.

Usage

Pretty simple things.

Install dependencies

  • Run the install_deps.sh to install the required command line tools globally. sudo might be required to do so. If you don't trust the file, or are running windows, you might also just execute the content, like npm install -g jspm gulp.
  • Use npm install and jspm install to install the dependencies for running the tasks and for the frontend part.

Running

To run the example server, use gulp serve. This should open a new tab in your default browser on http://localhost:3333 - if that does not happen automatically, just move there manually. You should see an extremely simple page displaying angular-protractor-test-app-thing. The E2E tests may currently (as of 2015-11-18) target:

  • Firefox using gulp e2e:firefox
  • Chrome using gulp e2e:chrome

Something like the following should appear on the command line, indicating that everything worked fine: '''

Starting selenium standalone server...
[launcher] Running 1 instances of WebDriver
Selenium standalone server started at http://10.2.1.65:53732/wd/hub
Spec started
Started

  A simple initial testcase
    ✓ should display the home`s root element correctly
.
Executed 1 of 1 spec SUCCESS in 2 secs.
1 spec, 0 failures

TODO

  • Further technology description (why, how it works, etc.)
  • Extend to be able to use more browsers.
  • Some less simple examples.
