I used to get frequent chrome driver error in karate UI tests. I have been using karate tests in VS code for the past 5 months. Now, I used to get driver config / start failed: chrome server returned empty list from http://localhost:[port] frequently. Sometimes, I need to run 20 times to run the same test to succeed. All other runs throws either "driver config / start failed: chrome server returned empty list" / "ERROR com.intuit.karate - evaluation of 'karate-config.js' failed: javascript function call failed"
I have installed chrome multiple times but I get the same error. Also I have re-imaged my laptop due this issue and through something went wrong. Even now I used to get the above errors often.
I have installed Chrome 64 bit in windows laptop, it get installed in "C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" but karate standalone will always check the Chrome path "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" in runtime which doesn't exists.
Note: I have set the chrome.exe installed path in my system environment PATH but karate not considering the path variable. Please advise me on this.
So I have modified the driver config as given below:-
* configure driver = { type: 'chrome', headless: true }
[To]
* configure driver = { type: 'chrome', executable: 'C:/Program Files/Google/Chrome/Application/chrome.exe', headless: true }
Karate version: 0.9.6.RC3

Please guide me how to resolve this issue.

I was same error. Actually its finding chrome.exe in different location where actually its not located.
In default it's looking at "C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Chrome/Application/chrome.exe"
but actual path was 'C:/Users/ues/AppData/Local/Google/Chrome/Application/chrome.exe'
So check your chrome.exe path.
Hope it's helpful.
I have solved my problem by defining in the config file as;
"karate.configure('driver', { type: 'chrome', port: 9222,
executable: 'C://Program Files//Google//Chrome//Application//chrome.exe' });"
maybe assigning a port help me to solve the issue but one thing to consider here is that u need to use forward slashes in the executable command.
No one else has reported this, so you'll need to figure this out maybe with the help of someone who can troubleshoot your machine. Maybe there are some permission restrictions. Maybe your old processes are still running, so make sure you go to your task manager and kill them etc, this is quite common on Windows.
And please upgrade to 1.0 before trying anything else, because that may help: https://github.com/intuit/karate/wiki/1.0-upgrade-guide
Otherwise we will need your help to maybe debug and suggest changes to the framework. Ideally you should contribute code to Karate, and remember - it is an open source project. If you are able to replicate your problems, follow this process: https://github.com/intuit/karate/wiki/How-to-Submit-an-Issue - but I'm not sure that is possible with the kinds of issues you are describing.
If none of the above options work, you may need to consider switching to some other framework.
EDIT: most teams run on CI + Docker which is much more stable: https://stackoverflow.com/a/62325328/143475
I am trying to launch chrome with an URL, the browser launches and it does nothing after that.
I am seeing the below error after 1 minute:
Unable to open browser with url: 'https://www.google.com' (Root cause: org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist
(Driver info: chromedriver=2.39.562718 (9a2698cba08cf5a471a29d30c8b3e12becabb0e9),platform=Windows NT 10.0.15063 x86_64) (WARNING: The server did not provide any stacktrace information)
My configuration:
Chrome : 66
ChromeBrowser : 2.39.56
P.S everything works fine in Firefox
Thumb rule
A common cause for Chrome to crash during startup is running Chrome as root user (administrator) on Linux. While it is possible to work around this issue by passing --no-sandbox flag when creating your WebDriver session, such a configuration is unsupported and highly discouraged. You need to configure your environment to run Chrome as a regular user instead.
This error message...
org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist
...implies that the ChromeDriver was unable to initiate/spawn a new WebBrowser i.e. Chrome Browser session.
Your code trials and the versioning information of all the binaries would have given us some hint about what's going wrong.
However as per Add --disable-dev-shm-usage to default launch flags seems adding the argument --disable-dev-shm-usage will temporary solve the issue.
If you desire to initiate/span a new Chrome Browser session you can use the following solution:
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\path\\to\\chromedriver.exe");
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("start-maximized"); // open Browser in maximized mode
options.addArguments("disable-infobars"); // disabling infobars
options.addArguments("--disable-extensions"); // disabling extensions
options.addArguments("--disable-gpu"); // applicable to windows os only
options.addArguments("--disable-dev-shm-usage"); // overcome limited resource problems
options.addArguments("--no-sandbox"); // Bypass OS security model
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
driver.get("https://google.com");
disable-dev-shm-usage
As per base_switches.cc disable-dev-shm-usage seems to be valid only on Linux OS:
#if defined(OS_LINUX) && !defined(OS_CHROMEOS)
// The /dev/shm partition is too small in certain VM environments, causing
// Chrome to fail or crash (see http://crbug.com/715363). Use this flag to
// work-around this issue (a temporary directory will always be used to create
// anonymous shared memory files).
const char kDisableDevShmUsage[] = "disable-dev-shm-usage";
#endif
In the discussion Add an option to use /tmp instead of /dev/shm David mentions:
I think it would depend on how are /dev/shm and /tmp mounted.
If they are both mounted as tmpfs I'm assuming there won't be any difference.
if for some reason /tmp is not mapped as tmpfs (and I think is mapped as tmpfs by default by systemd), chrome shared memory management always maps files into memory when creating an anonymous shared files, so even in that case shouldn't be much difference. I guess you could force telemetry tests with the flag enabled and see how it goes.
As for why not use by default, it was a pushed back by the shared memory team, I guess it makes sense it should be useing /dev/shm for shared memory by default.
Ultimately all this should be moving to use memfd_create, but I don't think that's going to happen any time soon, since it will require refactoring Chrome memory management significantly.

Outro
Here is the link to the Sandbox story.
I started seeing this problem on Monday 2018-06-04. Our tests run each weekday. It appears that the only thing that changed was the google-chrome version (which had been updated to current) JVM and Selenium were recent versions on Linux box ( Java 1.8.0_151, selenium 3.12.0, google-chrome 67.0.3396.62, and xvfb-run).
Specifically adding the arguments "--no-sandbox" and "--disable-dev-shm-usage" stopped the error.
I'll look into these issues to find more info about the effect, and other questions as in what triggered google-chrome to update.
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
...
options.addArguments("--no-sandbox");
options.addArguments("--disable-dev-shm-usage");
We were having the same issues on our jenkins slaves (linux machine) and tried all the options above.
The only thing helped is setting the argument
chrome_options.add_argument('--headless')
But when we investigated further, noticed that XVFB screen doesn't started property and thats causing this error. After we fix XVFB screen, it resolved the issue.
I had the same problem in python. The above helped. Here is what I used in python -
chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.add_argument('--headless')
chrome_options.add_argument('--no-sandbox')
chrome_options.add_argument('--disable-dev-shm-usage')
driver = webdriver.Chrome('/path/to/your_chrome_driver_dir/chromedriver',chrome_options=chrome_options)
I was facing the same issue recently and after some trial and error it worked for me as well.

options.addArguments("--no-sandbox"); //has to be the very first option

In my case in the following environment:
Windows 10
Python 3.7.5
Google Chrome version 80 and corresponding ChromeDriver in the path C:\Windows
selenium 3.141.0
I needed to add the arguments --no-sandbox and --remote-debugging-port=9222 to the ChromeOptions object and run the code as administrator user by lunching the Powershell/cmd as administrator.
Here is the related piece of code:
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument('headless')
options.add_argument('--disable-infobars')
options.add_argument('--disable-dev-shm-usage')
options.add_argument('--no-sandbox')
options.add_argument('--remote-debugging-port=9222')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)
I ran into this problem on Ubuntu 20 with Python Selenium after first downloading the chromedriver separately and then using sudo apt install chromium-browser Even though they were the same version this kept happening.
My fix was to use the provided chrome driver that came with the repo package located at
/snap/bin/chromium.chromedriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options, executable_path='/snap/bin/chromium.chromedriver')
Update:
I am able to get through the issue and now I am able to access the chrome with desired url.
Results of trying the provided solutions:
I tried all the settings as provided above but I was unable to resolve the issue
Explanation regarding the issue:
As per my observation DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist is caused when chrome is unable to find its reference in scoped_dirXXXXX folder.
Steps taken to solve the issue
I have killed all the chrome processes and chrome driver processes.
Added the below code to invoke the chrome
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","pathto\\chromedriver.exe");
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.setExperimentalOption("useAutomationExtension", false);
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
driver.get(url);
Using the above steps I was able to resolve the issue.
Thanks for your answers.
In my case it was problem with CI Agent account on ubuntu server, I solved this using custom --user-data-dir
chrome_options.add_argument('--user-data-dir=~/.config/google-chrome')
My account used by CI Agent didn't have necessary permissions, what was interesting everything was working on root account
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.add_argument('--no-sandbox')
chrome_options.add_argument('--headless')
chrome_options.add_argument('--disable-gpu')
chrome_options.add_argument('--disable-dev-shm-usage')
chrome_options.add_argument('--profile-directory=Default')
chrome_options.add_argument('--user-data-dir=~/.config/google-chrome')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=chrome_options)
url = 'https://www.google.com'
driver.get(url)
get_url = driver.current_url
print(get_url)
There is lot of possible reasons for the RESPONSE InitSession ERROR unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist error message (as we can see from the number of answers for this question). So let's dive deeper to explain what exactly this error message means.
According to chromedriver source code the message is created in ParseDevToolsActivePortFile method. This method is called from the loop after launching chrome process.
In the loop the driver check if the chrome process is still running and if the ParseDevToolsActivePortFile file was already created by chrome. There is a hardcoded 60s timeout for this loop.
I see two possible reasons for this message:
Chrome is really slow during startup - for example due to lack of system resources - mainly CPU or memory. In this case it can happen that sometimes chrome manage to start in time limit and sometimes not.
There is another issue which prevents chrome to start - missing or broken dependency, wrong configuration etc. In such case this error message is not really helpful and you should find another log message which explain the true reason of the failure.
It happens when chromedriver fails to figure out what debugging port chrome is using.
One possible cause is an open defect with HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Google\Chrome\UserDataDir
But in my last case, it was some other unidentified cause.
Fortunately setting port number manually worked:
final String[] args = { "--remote-debugging-port=9222" };
options.addArguments(args);
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
As stated in this other answer:
This error message... implies that the ChromeDriver was unable to initiate/spawn a new WebBrowser i.e. Chrome Browser session.
Among the possible causes, I would like to mention the fact that, in case you are running an headless Chromium via Xvfb, you might need to export the DISPLAY variable: in my case, I had in place (as recommended) the --disable-dev-shm-usage and --no-sandbox options, everything was running fine, but in a new installation running the latest (at the time of writing) Ubuntu 18.04 this error started to occurr, and the only possible fix was to execute an export DISPLAY=":20" (having previously started Xvfb with Xvfb :20&).
You can get this error simply for passing bad arguments to Chrome. For example, if I pass "headless" as an arg to the C# ChromeDriver, it fires up great. If I make a mistake and use the wrong syntax, "--headless", I get the DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist error.
I was stuck on this for a very long time and finally fixed it by adding this an additional option:
options.addArguments("--crash-dumps-dir=/tmp")
I know it's an old question and it already has a lot of answers. However, I ran into this issue, bumped into this thread and none of the proposed solutions helped. After spending a few days(!) on it I finally found a solution:
My problem was that I was using the selenium/standalone-chrome image on a MacBook with M1 chip. After switching to seleniarm/standalone-chromium everything finally started to work.
I had the same issue, but in my case chrome previously was installed in user temp folder, after that was reinstalled to Program files. So any of solution provided here was not help me. But if provide path to chrome.exe all works:
chromeOptions.setBinary("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Google\\Chrome\\Application\\chrome.exe");
I hope this helps someone =)
In my case it happened when I've tried to use my default user profile:
...
options.addArguments("user-data-dir=D:\\MyHomeDirectory\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data");
...
This triggered chrome to reuse processes already running in background, in such a way, that process started by chromedriver.exe was simply ended.
Resolution: kill all chrome.exe processes running in background.
update capabilities in conf.js as
exports.config = {
seleniumAddress: 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub',
specs: ['todo-spec.js'],
capabilities: {
browserName: 'chrome',
chromeOptions: {
args: ['--disable-gpu', '--no-sandbox', '--disable-extensions', '--disable-dev-shm-usage']
}
},
};
Old question but a similar issue nearly drove me to insanity so sharing my solution. None of the other suggestions fixed my issue.
When I updated my Docker image Chrome installation from an old version to Chrome 86, I got this error. My setup was not identical but we were instantiating Chrome through a selenium webdriver.
The solution was to pass the options as goog:chromeOptions hash instead of chromeOptions hash. I truly don't know if this was a Selenium, Chrome, Chromedriver, or some other update, but maybe some poor soul will find solace in this answer in the future.
For Ubuntu 20 it did help me to use my systems chromium driver instead of the downloaded one:
# chromium which
/snap/bin/chromium
driver = webdriver.Chrome('/snap/bin/chromium.chromedriver',
options=chrome_options)
And for the downloaded webdriver looks like it needs the remote debug port --remote-debugging-port=9222 to be set, as in one of the answers (by Soheil Pourbafrani):
chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
chrome_options.add_argument("--remote-debugging-port=9222")
driver = webdriver.Chrome('<path_to>/chromedriver', options=chrome_options)
Date 9/16/2021
Everything works fine running chrome with selenium locally with python inside the docker hosted ubuntu container. When attempting to run from Jenkins the error above is returned WebDriverException: unknown error: DevToolsActivePort
Environment:
-Ubuntu21.04 inside a docker container with RDP access.
-chromedriver for chrome version: 93
Solution:
Inside the python file that starts the browser I had to set the DISPLAY environment variable using the following lines:
import os
os.environ['DISPLAY'] = ':10.0'
#DISPLAY_VAR = os.environ.get('DISPLAY')
#print("DISPLAY_VAR:", DISPLAY_VAR)
In my case, I was trying to create a runnable jar on Windows OS with chrome browser and want to run the same on headless mode in unix box with CentOs on it. And I was pointing my binary to a driver that I have downloaded and packaged with my suite. For me, this issue continue to occur irrespective of adding the below:
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("--headless");
options.addArguments("--no-sandbox");
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.args", "--disable-logging");
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.silentOutput", "true");
options.setBinary("/pointing/downloaded/driver/path/in/automationsuite");
options.addArguments("--disable-dev-shm-usage"); // overcome limited resource problems
options.addArguments("disable-infobars"); // disabling infobars
options.addArguments("--disable-extensions"); // disabling extensions
options.addArguments("--disable-gpu"); // applicable to windows os only
options.addArguments("--disable-dev-shm-usage"); // overcome limited resource problems
options.addArguments("window-size=1024,768"); // Bypass OS security model
options.addArguments("--log-level=3"); // set log level
options.addArguments("--silent");//
options.setCapability("chrome.verbose", false); //disable logging
driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
Solution that I've tried and worked for me is, download the chrome and its tools on the host VM/Unix box, install and point the binary to this in the automation suite and bingo! It works :)
Download command:
wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm
Install command:
sudo yum install -y ./google-chrome-stable_current_*.rpm
Update suite with below binary path of google-chrome:
options.setBinary("/opt/google/chrome/google-chrome");
And.. it works!
I also faced this issue while integrating with jenkins server, I was used the root user for jenkin job, the issue was fixed when I changed the user to other user. I am not sure why this error occurs for the root user.
Google Chrome Version 71.0
ChromeDriver Version 2.45
CentOS7 Version 1.153
I run selenium tests with Jenkins running on an Ubuntu 18 LTS linux. I had this error until I added the argument 'headless' like this (and some other arguments):
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("headless"); // headless -> no browser window. needed for jenkins
options.addArguments("disable-infobars"); // disabling infobars
options.addArguments("--disable-extensions"); // disabling extensions
options.addArguments("--disable-dev-shm-usage"); // overcome limited resource problems
options.addArguments("--no-sandbox"); // Bypass OS security model
ChromeDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
driver.get("www.google.com");
Had the same issue. I am running the selenium script on Google cloud VM.
options.addArguments("--headless");
The above line resolved my issue. I removed the other optional arguments. I think the rest lines of code mentioned in other answers did not have any effect on resolving the issue on the cloud VM.
in my case, when i changed the google-chrome and chromedriver version, the error was fixed :)
#google-chrome version
[root#localhost ~]# /usr/bin/google-chrome --version
Google Chrome 83.0.4103.106
#chromedriver version
[root#localhost ~]# /usr/local/bin/chromedriver -v
ChromeDriver 83.0.4103.14 (be04594a2b8411758b860104bc0a1033417178be-refs/branch-heads/4103#{#119})
ps: selenium verison was 3.9.1
No solution worked for my. But here is a workaround:
maxcounter=5
for counter in range(maxcounter):
try:
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options,
service_log_path=logfile,
service_args=["--verbose", "--log-path=%s" % logfile])
break
except WebDriverException as e:
print("RETRYING INITIALIZATION OF WEBDRIVER! Error: %s" % str(e))
time.sleep(10)
if counter==maxcounter-1:
raise WebDriverException("Maximum number of selenium-firefox-webdriver-retries exceeded.")
It seems there are many possible causes for this error. In our case, the error happened because we had the following two lines in code:
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", chromeDriverPath);
chromeOptions.setBinary(chromeDriverPath);
It's solved by removing the second line.
I ran into same issue, i am using UBUNTU, PYTHON and OPERA browser. in my case the problem was originated because i had an outdated version of operadriver.
Solution:
1. Make sure you install latest opera browser version ( do not use opera beta or opera developer), for that go to the official opera site and download from there the latest opera_stable version.
Install latest opera driver (if you already have an opera driver install, you have to remove it first use sudo rm ...)
wget https://github.com/operasoftware/operachromiumdriver/releases/download/v.80.0.3987.100/operadriver_linux64.zip
unzip operadriver_linux64.zip
sudo mv operadriver /usr/bin/operadriver
sudo chown root:root /usr/bin/operadriver
sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/operadriver
in my case latest was 80.0.3987 as you can see
Additionally i also installed chromedriver (but since i did it before testing, i do not know of this is needed) in order to install chromedriver, follow the steps on previous step :v
Enjoy and thank me!
Sample selenium code
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
driver = webdriver.Opera()
driver.get("http://www.python.org")
assert "Python" in driver.title
elem = driver.find_element_by_name("q")
elem.clear()
elem.send_keys("pycon")
elem.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)
assert "No results found." not in driver.page_source
driver.quit()
I came across the same problem, in my case there are two different common user userA and userB in Linux system.
userA first run the selinium programe which start chrome browswer with ChromeDriver successfully, when it came to userB, the DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist error occur.
I tried the --remote-debugging-port=9222 option, but it lead to a new exception:
selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: chrome not reachable
The I ran google-chome directory and see the following error:
mkdir /tmp/Crashpad/new: Permission denied (13)
The I search the problem and got this:

I am upgrading a framework to latest version. Earlier integration (>2 years old) had framework directly copied in the project; now getting cocoapod (0.39.0) to get framework integrated with project using xcode (7.2.1) and objective-c project.
Upon run, it generates following error:
dyld: Library not loaded: #rpath/name.framework/name
Referenced from:
/Users/xyz_xyz/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/xxxxxxx/data/Containers/Bundle/Application/xxxxxxx/appname.app/appname
Reason: image not found
"Pod" xcode-project has correct reference and framework is present in corresponding folder
Found that nameFramework isn't linked (added) in any of the build phases. I am new to using cocoapods and not sure what changes would be necessary in Xcode build settings to make transition from directly-embedded framework to cocoapods based integration.
how to get past "dyld: Library not loaded" error?
What phase should I use to reference name.Framework during build as it's not getting generated?
How to copy bundle resources from Pod to project? Dragging-n-drop Pods/name/Resources/name.bundle prompts "copy item if needed" dialog. <- I don't think I need to do this when using cocoapods.
[update] Integration using cocoapods works fine when a sample or new project is used. It's something in the current project settings that's causing the issue.
Podfile:
platform :ios, '8.0'
# use_framework for swift based pod integration. requires cocoapod 0.39.0
#use_frameworks!

target :ABC do
pod '...', '~>1'
end
target :XYZ do
pod '...', :path => 'submodules/...'
end
[Update]
- Upgraded to CocoaPods 1.0.1 & modified the Podfile to uncomment use_frameworks!, and make other changes that are required for 0.39.0 to 1.0.1 migration. Here is the updated Podfile.
platform :ios, '8.0'

end
end
Fixed errors such as following by adding $(inherited) flag (where applicable)
[!] The XYZ-v2 [Release] target overrides the OTHER_LDFLAGS build setting defined in ...
Progress after above changes, Pods/Target Supported Files/XYZ-v2/ has Pods-XYZ-v2-frameworks.sh and resources.sh; earlier frameworks.sh was missing. Following is partial content of the framworks.sh, and it does contain copy instructions.

Now I am trying to resolve compile errors upon build, which are related to static vs dynamic library includes.
/path../Pods/SSKeychain/Sources/SSKeychain.h:65:1: Duplicate interface definition for class ‘SSKeychain'
[Updated] Posted a new question: CocoaPods 1.0.1 Redefinition of 'XYZ', Redefinition of enumerator 'ABC', Duplicate interface definition for 'MNO'

OS X Framework Library not loaded: 'Image not found'
Seems relevant: https://github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods/issues/4772
Try using use_frameworks! (it's currently commented out). PSPDFKit is a dynamic framework, so you need to enable this option.
Also try it with the newest Xcode and CocoaPods >= 1.0.0. Older versions might not work correctly.
You can find more information about PSPDFKit integration via CocoaPods here: https://pspdfkit.com/guides/ios/current/getting-started/using-cocoapods
If all of this doesn't help you can reach the PSPDFKit developers directly at https://pspdfkit.com/support/request
same issue on dyld: Library not loaded: #rpath/TwilioAccessManager.framework/TwilioAccessManager
Reason: image not found
I had the same problem, this fixed it for me.I Changed Framework status required to optional .
I'm using protractor with jasmine-reporters 2.0.7
I tried to use the modifySuiteName option to modify suite names.
This is what in my conf.js:
multiCapabilities: [{
browserName: 'firefox'
}, {
browserName: 'chrome'
}],
onPrepare: function() {
var jasmineReporters = require('jasmine-reporters');
return browser.getProcessedConfig().then(function(config) {
var browserName = config.capabilities.browserName;
jasmine.getEnv().addReporter(
new jasmineReporters.JUnitXmlReporter({
savePath: 'c://scripts',
filePrefix: browserName,
consolidateAll: true,
modifySuiteName: function(generatedSuiteName, suite) {
return browserName+ '.' + generatedSuiteName;}
}));
});
},
I suppose to see
testsuite name="chrome.Demo App"
in chrome.xml
and
testsuite name="firefox.Demo App"
in firefox.xml
But I can only see
testsuite name="Demo App"
in both files.
Is there anything wrong in my code?
Okay now I figure out that my issue is caused by a stupid mistake.
I'm using windows 8 and running cmd under the folder c:\scripts.
I'm so new to nodejs and npm that during the set-up process I used npm install --save-dev jasmine-reporters#^2.0.0 and few days later I used npm install -g jasmine-reporters#latest
So there are 2 jasmine-reporters in my system, one in C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\jasmine-reporters
and another in C:\scripts\node_modules\jasmine-reporters,
with version 2.0.7 and 2.0.0 in package.json, respectively.
I just update my jasmine-reporters in C:\scripts\node_modules to 2.0.7 and the script finally works!
Thanks for your time, I really appreciate it.
As far as i see, there is no fault in your code. If your code is generating chrome and firefox xml's then everything with your configuration should be fine. Your code is working perfectly fine in my protractor. I am using Jasmine 2.3.1 with protractor 2.1.0. Try updating your protractor and jasmine framework to the latest version and then run your test suite. To update your jasmine run the below command -
npm update -g jasmine
Also if you have not added the framework tag after multiCapabilities tag in your conf.js file then you should be doing so as shown below -
framework: 'jasmine2',
Hope this solves your issue.
