I am trying to debug protractor scripts on VSCode.
I edited the launch.json file but the debug console throws the below error.
Here is the VSCode Debug Console Output:
C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe --inspect-brk=45448 conf.js C:\Users\abc\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\protractor\example/conf.js Debugger listening on ws://127.0.0.1:45448/ab61a2d7-4b40-456b-86cb-838e94dfe5b0 Debugger attached. Waiting for the debugger to disconnect...
I am not able to find a solution anywhere online either.
When you set your breakpoint in VSCode, you'll need to run the following:
node --inspect-brk ./node_modules/.bin/protractor conf.js
The path above assumes Protractor is installed in your node_modules/.bin/ directory locally in your project.
Next navigate to chrome://inspect. You will have to skip the entry point of Protractor and then you should hit your breakpoint. Make sure you are using node 8 to avoid getting polyfill-ed promises.
We go over this in detail in the ng-conf video. We kick off the test with a script that uses this e2e-debug command which is the equivalent to the above.
