is not assignable to parameter of type 'Expect

问题:

My tests are passing from command line, however I edit the typescript source using Atom.

And when I open one of the test files in my editor, I'm seeing an error on this line:

expect(pageObject.name.getText()).toEqual('Some name');

This is the error:

Typescript

Error
Argument of type '"Some name"' is not assignable to parameter of type 'Expected<Promise<string>>'.at line 16 col 50

Why does this show in my editor? Yet tests pass.

Command to run protractor tests:

protractor dist/protractor.config.js

回答1:

getText() returns promise. See the doc.

If you want to assert text from an element you need chai-as-promise. See example.
