protractor-html-screenshot-reporter not showing any report after test execution

Question

I am using protractor to automate a hybrid mobile app, I am using the Protractor-HTML-screenshot-reporter, but it is not displaying any report after successful test execution.

Here's my code below:

var HtmlReporter = require('protractor-html-screenshot-reporter');

var reporter=new HtmlReporter({
        baseDirectory: 'C:\\Users\\bhawani.prasad\\Desktop\\Protractor\\PageObject\\report', // a location to store screen shots.
        docTitle: 'Protractor Demo Reporter',
        docName:    'protractor-demo-tests-report.html'
    });


 onPrepare: function() {
        jasmine.getEnv().addReporter(reporter);
        } ,

Answer 1

For those who are wondering why there are no screenshots generated by protactor-html-screenshot-reporter and, if you are using jasmine2:

protractor-html-screenshot-reporter is not compatible with jasmine 2

Switch to protractor-jasmine2-screenshot-reporter.

Answer 2

There's not much to go on here. I'd recommend just ditching a screenshot library and roll your own. Here's what we use internally to grab a screenshot and html after a failed test.

function setupScreenGrabber() {
   jasmine.getEnv().afterEach(function() {
        if (jasmine.getEnv().currentSpec.results_.failedCount > 0) {
            var filename = 'target/screenshots/failed-' + jasmine.getEnv().currentSpec.getFullName() + '-' + Date.now();
            browser.takeScreenshot().then(function(png) {
                var stream = fs.createWriteStream(filename + '.png');
                stream.write(new Buffer(png, 'base64'));
                stream.end();
            });
            element(by.css('html')).getOuterHtml().then(function(html) {
                fs.writeFile(filename + '.html', html);
            });
        }
    });
}

Just call this method from inside of onPrepare. You will need to require(fs). Also, since you want to capture only on passing tests, then change > 0 to === 0. But, this should get you started.
