First of all, I've already checked various post and blogs concerning that point and I still can't figure out how to make it correctly.
I have tried many different combinaison of :
- browser wait
- protractor.controlFlow().execute
- protractor.controlFlow().await(
...Still no success..
My problem
Within my beforeEach function, I'd like to call a protractor promise and wait for it to resolve before performing the rest of my code.
My Code
I've prepared this simple test for anyone willing to help me
describe('testAsync', function() { beforeEach(function() { console.log('beforeEach - step 1 ') browser.get("https://angularjs.org/"); console.log('beforeEach - step 2 ') testFunc() console.log('beforeEach - after testFunc - step 3') }); var testFunc = function(){ console.log("testFunc - step 1") browser.wait(function() { var deferred = protractor.promise.defer(); element(by.id('twitter-widget-1')).isPresent() .then(function (isPresent) { console.log("testFunc - step 2") deferred.fulfill(isPresent); }); return deferred.promise; }); console.log("testFunc - step 3") } it('test after BeforeEach', function() { console.log("Last trace") }); });
Current Output
[launcher] Running 1 instances of WebDriver beforeEach - step 1 beforeEach - step 2 testFunc - step 1 testFunc - step 3 beforeEach - after testFunc - step 3 testFunc - step 2 Last trace
Expected Output
[launcher] Running 1 instances of WebDriver beforeEach - step 1 beforeEach - step 2 testFunc - step 1 testFunc - step 2 //
