(0c4ef69) feat(launcher): launcher outputs a final summary of how the browsers did
-
(f1db8b4) feat(runner): make runner an event emitter and log passes or failures from the launcher

(f9c4391) feat(cli+config): allow defining multiple test suites in the config and running them separately from the command line.
-
(06bd573) feat(pause): add the browser.pause method to enter a webdriver-specific debugger
Warning: this is still beta, there may be issues. Usage: In test code, insert a
browser.pause()
statement. This will stop the test at that point in the webdriver control flow. No need to change the command line you use to start the test. Once paused, you can step forward, pausing before each webdriver command, and interact with the browser. Exit the debugger to continue the tests.

-
(05eb42b) refactor(locators): moves scope in locators to last argument
scope defaults to document, and is an optional argument so now be moved to the end. Came up from debugging and trying to use window.clientSideScripts.findInputs('username'); which failed. Refactored to match original intent.
BREAKING CHANGE: anything relying on clientsidescripts should no longer pass element scope as first argument.
Before: window.clientSideScripts.findInputs(document, 'username'); After: window.clientSideScripts.findInputs('username', document); // or simply window.clientSideScripts.findInputs('username');
Also, any custom locators using addLocator will now break since the arguments order has chnaged. To migrate the code follow the example below:
Before: var findMenuItem = function() { var domScope = arguments[0]; var myArg = arguments[1]; // balh blah blah }; by.addLocator('menuItem', findMenuItem); After: var findMenuItem = function() { var myArg = arguments[0]; var domScope = arguments[1]; // balh blah blah }; by.addLocator('menuItem', findMenuItem);

-
(cc4f7b5), (8348803) feat(element): allow chaining of element finders with element().element()...
Chaining calls to element will now build a scoped element finder. No webdriver functions will be called until a method (such as getText) is called on the final element. Example:
var elem = element(by.id('outer')).element(by.css('inner'));
browser.get('myPage'); elem.click();

(478c00a) feat(runner): add beta support for using mocha as your test framework
This change adds limited support for using mocha as the test framework instead of jasmine. Make the switch by using
--framework=mocha
on the command line or addingframework: 'mocha'
to the config. Tests will be run using the BDD interface. The interface is adapted so that tests run asynchronously without needing to calldone()
.Note that there is currently no support for an assertion framework, so you will need to require whichever assertion framework you prefer. This means there is no adapter to make the assertions unwrap promises, so you will need to resolve promises yourself and run the assertions afterwards.
-
(3731abf) feat(webdriver-manager): add seleniumPort command line option
Added seleniumPort command line option so that the standalone selenium server can be started with the supplied port number as opposed to the default port 4444.
$ webdriver-manager start --seleniumPort 4443
- (bc18c42) chore(config): saucelabs requires tunnel identifier to be a string
- (478c00a) feat(runner): add beta support for using mocha as your test framework
To allow the user to customize their framework, the protractor runner will now wait
until just before onPrepare
to load the framework. This means that jasmine
will
not be available in global until onPrepare
. For example, this means that requiring
the jasmine-reporters module must be done inside onPrepare, since that module expects
jasmine to be available at the time it is loaded.
Note: Major version 0 releases are for initial development, and backwards incompatible changes may be introduced at any time.

(c579a1a), (f54fd5d) feat(webdriver-manager): redo the script to run and install selenium/webdriver
Breaking Change. As outlined in Issue #296, redoing the way the selenium/webdriver install and run helper scripts work. Now, the 'webdriver-manager' script will be available either locally or globally (depending on how protractor was installed). It replaced install_selenium_standalone and the 'start' script that was provided after install. Run
webdriver-manager update
to download new versions of selected webdriver binaries. Runwebdriver-manager start
to start the standalone server. In addition, this fixes issues with running the server starter in Windows, and allows automated downloading of the IEDriver.Thanks to kurthong and vipper for their PRs with windows fixes, which were very useful in preparing this.

webdriver-manager update
-
(a1c91a2) fix(config): Make all file paths in config files relative to the config file itself
Breaking Change Previously, onPrepare and specs were relative to the location of the config, but seleniumServerJar and chromeDriver were relative to the cwd when the test was called. If you were calling the tests from somewhere other than the same directory as the config location, you will need to change the paths of seleniumServerJar and/or chromeDriver. Closes #222.
Note: Major version 0 releases are for initial development, and backwards incompatible changes may be introduced at any time.

-
(ebc528f) fix(debugging): switch debugging tests to the new test app urls.
-
(8ff4787) fix(runner): exit with proper code when tests fail
When errors with messages matching /timeout/ were created, Protractor clears the control flow so that the remainder of the tasks scheduled for that spec don't bleed over into the next spec. This was messing up the promises used in the runner, since they are also webdriver promises. Long term, the runner should not use webdriver promises. For now, fix by having the runner resolve promises directly rather than through chaining, and add a TODO to use promises which aren't connected to WebDriver's control flow in the runner.
Closes #214.
-
(81501c5) fix(clientsidescripts): workaround for IE 8 "async page reload" init problem
-
(21264fd) fix(find): fix error when exposed to ng-options element with a default option

Closes #165, may fix #170
- (f672648) fix(findelements): fix isPresent for repeaters by row for real
-
(bf5b076) fix(cli): remove boolean verbose and stack trace options
Also add better description for what the command line options are.
Tiny breaking change: Rename the 'includeStackTrace' command line option to 'stackTrace' for brevity.
Note: Major version 0 releases are for initial development, and backwards incompatible changes may be introduced at any time.
This change introduces major syntax updates. Using the new syntax is recommeded, but the old version is still supported for now. Note also that the test application, docs, and example tests have been updated.
- (a2cd6c8) feat(syntax): big syntax reboot, expose global
$, $ $, element, and by
In an effort to make tests more readable and clear, a few more global variables will now be exported.
browser
is an instance of protractor. This was previously accessed using
protractor.getInstance
.
by
is a collection of element locators. Previously, this was protractor.By
.
$
is a shortcut for getting elements by css. $('.foo')
=== element(by.css('.foo'))
All changes should be backwards incompatible, as tested with the new 'backwardscompat' tests.
- (8c87ae6) fix(onPrepare): onPrepare with a string argument should resolve from the config directory
onPrepare can take a string, which is a filename containing a script to load adn execute before any tests run. This fixes the string to resolve the filename relative to the config file, instead of relative to the current working directory where protractor is called.
Note: Major version 0 releases are for initial development, and backwards incompatible changes may be introduced at any time.
- (02cb819) feat(cli): allow passing params directly to your test
Adds a config object 'params' which is passed directly to instances of protractor. 'params' may contain nested objects, and can be changed via the command line as:
--params.login.user 'Joe' --params.login.password 'abc'
This change also switches to using optimist to parse command line flags for more flexibility and better usage documentation. Closes #32.
- (c025ddb) feat(findElements): $ & $$ shortcuts.
Introducing the $ shortcut method for finding a single element by css without having to call protractor.By.css. Additionally $$ for finding all elements by css.
Examples:
-
ptor.$('.some .selector')
-
ptor.$$('.some .selector')
-
(7d74184) feat(explorer): add an interactive element explorer
When debugging or first writing test suites, you may find it helpful to try out Protractor commands without starting up the entire test suite. You can do this with the element explorer. This change introduces a first version of the element explorer. Closes #107
- (e45ceaa) fix(repeaters): allow finding all rows of a repeater
Now, finding an element with the strategy 'protractor.By.repeater()' returns a promise which will resolve to an array of WebElements, where each WebElement is a row in the repeater. Closes #149.
- (b501ceb) fix(findElements): Consistently include evaluate.
When using findElements with a css locator, wrap the returned list of elements with protractor specific functionality.
- (c17ac12) fix(cli): allow running from command line without a config file
If all necessary fields are specified (e.g. seleniumAddress and at least one spec), a config file shouldn't be necessary.
- (421d623) fix(repeat): use 0-based indexing for repeater rows
BREAKING CHANGE: Finding rows with protractor.By.repeater now indexes from 0 instead of 1. This should be more familiar to most modern programmers. You will need to edit existing tests. Closes #90.
Before:
// The fourth foo
ptor.findElement(protractor.By.repeater('foo in foos').row(4));
After:
// The fourth foo
ptor.findElement(protractor.By.repeater('foo in foos').row(3));
Note: Major version 0 releases are for initial development, and backwards incompatible changes may be introduced at any time.
- (881759e) feat(timeouts): add a unique error message when waitForAngular times out
To improve the readability of error messages, when waitForAngular times out it now produces a custom message. This should help clarify confusion for pages that continually poll using $interval. This change also adds more documentation on timeouts. See issue #109.
- (37e0f1a) feat(install selenium): better communication in the install script
Adds better messages in the selenium server install script, and also makes the script output a 'start' executable which can be used to quickly start up the selenium standalone. not yet windows friendly. Closes #108.
- (b32f5a5) feat(config): add exmples for dealing with log-in
Adds examples for how to log in when the login page is not written in Angular. New examples are in spec/login.
- (1b7675a) feat(cli): add an onPrepare callback to the config
This onPrepare callback is useful when you want to do something with protractor before running the specs. For example, you might want to monkey-patch protractor with custom functions used by all the specs, or add the protractor instance to the globals. An example usage is shown in the spec/onPrepareConf.js file and its associated spec.
- (256b21c) fix(cli): allow passing the config file before the options
The cli usage says:
USAGE: protractor configFile [options] However, the options passed as argument are merged into the default configuration as soon as the configFile is met in the args parsing loop. This fix merges the options in the default configuration only after the loop, allowing to pass the options to the cli before or after, or around the config file.
- (6223825) fix(jasminewd): allow use of custom matchers
Using jasmine.Matchers.prototype to generate the chained methods for expect() calls is flawed because it does not pick up custom matchers defined using addMatcher. Instead, use either the matchersClass for the current spec or from the environment.
- (c22fc38) fix(sync): getCurrentUrl and friends should sync with Angular first
getCurrentUrl, getPageSource, and getTitle should sync with Angular before executing. Closes #92.
-
(dd06756) fix(clientsidescripts): findElements and isElementPresent for protractor.By.select
-
(c607459) fix (navigation): The defer label should appear before other window names, not after.
-
(806f381) Fix: findElements() and isElementPresent() now work for protractor.By.input. Closes #79.
- (881759e) feat(timeouts): add a unique error message when waitForAngular times out
This changes the default script timeout from 100 seconds down to 11. Tests
which relied on extremely long timeouts will need to change the default script
timeout with driver.manage().timeouts().setScriptTimeout(<bigNumber>)
.
Note: Major version 0 releases are for initial development, and backwards incompatible changes may be introduced at any time.
-
(0e8de99) Wrap WebElements with Protractor specific features. This change allows chained findElement calls to work with Protractor locators. It also adds a function, evaluate, to evaluate an angular expression in the context of a WebElement's scope.
-
(9f53118) Improving the command line interface (adding more options). This allows the --spec option to be passed with test files that will be resolved relative to the current directory. Smarter merging of default config values. Closes #65.

(73821fb) Adding an 'ignoreSynchronization' property to turn off Protractor's attempt to wait for Angular to be ready on a page. This can be used to test pages that poll with $timeout or $http.
-
(cfc6438) Adding support for isElementPresent with Protractor locators. Closes #11.
-
(8329b01) Adding waitForAngular calls before WebElement functions. Closes #37.

Note: Major version 0 releases are for initial development, and backwards incompatible changes may be introduced at any time.
-
(7966912) Updating to Selenium 2.24.
-
(90f0a94) Instead of having tests run with the protractor runner need to require() the protractor library, publish it to the global namespace. This insures the instance of protractor used within the tests is the same as the one used on the command line. Closes #36. Version bump for incompatible API changes.
-
(cb373c9) Adding glob matching to the spec files from the config. Closes #29.
-
Now running on selenium 2.24. Requires updating WebDriverJS and the selenium standalone binary.
-
The protractor runner now publishes
protractor
to the global namespace and sets up the Jasmine-WebDriver adapter. Tests run with this should no longer include
// var protractor = require('protractor'); // No longer needed!
// require('protractor/jasminewd'); // No longer needed!
var ptor = protractor.getInstance(); // This should just work now.
