Protractor : How to wait for page complete after click a button?

Question

In a test spec, I need to click a button on a web page, and wait for the new page completely loaded.

emailEl.sendKeys(\'jack\');
passwordEl.sendKeys(\'123pwd

I just had a look at the source - Protractor is waiting for Angular only in a few cases (like when element.all is invoked, or setting / getting location).

So Protractor won't wait for Angular to stabilise after every command.

Also, it looks like sometimes in my tests I had a race between Angular digest cycle and click event, so sometimes I have to do:

elm.click();
browser.driver.sleep(1000);
browser.waitForAngular();

using sleep to wait for execution to enter AngularJS context (triggered by click event).
