Karma can't capture PhantomJS

问题:

We've set up a Jenkins CI server running Karma targeting PhantomJS. We're running our tests through Grunt. Jenkins, Grunt, and Phantom are all running correctly, and Karma seems to start up fine, but Karma can't capture Phantom. Our scripts run locally (OSX) just fine. The same error exists running via bash or through Jenkins:

Our server is CentOS 6.4.

Here are the versions we have running: grunt-cli v0.1.9 grunt v0.4.1 node 0.10.12 and 0.8.25. phantomjs 1.9.1 karma 0.8.6

Any help would be much appreciated!

回答1:

Use polling instead of sockets and absolute paths instead of relative paths in the karma.conf.js configuration file to ensure the directory structure is being traversed correctly and the client/server connection has no external dependencies:

module.exports = function(config) 
  {
  var absolute_root = process.cwd() + '/';
  config.set
  (
    {
    // https://npmjs.org/browse/keyword/karma-adapter
    frameworks: ['jasmine'],

    // list of files

    files: 
       [
       absolute_root + 'test/Spec/**/*.js',
       absolute_root + 'js/*.js',
       absolute_root + '../libs/jquery.js'
       ],

     usePolling: true,

     transports: ['xhr-polling', 'jsonp-polling'],

     browsers: ['PhantomJS']
    }
  );
  };

In my case adding

transports: ['xhr-polling', 'jsonp-polling']

to karma.conf.js was sufficient. The real problem was a very old version of karma (0.12). Now with 1.4. I don't need CPU consuming polling.
