I've got an Angular app that requires authentication with Google, granting of some scopes, etc, and I'm trying to set up automatic e2e tests for it. I have protractor working well for me in general, but when we get to the google auth page, login, and get redirected, protractor fails the test because "document unloaded while waiting for result."
Is there a tool or technique I can use to authenticate to a development google account beforeEach test?
If I could just get the framework to hold on for a second while plain-old webdriver drives the login, and only really activate the angular stuff after I get to my target page, that would be perfect!
The key is to use browser.driver.get
instead of browser.get
, and to use browser.driver.sleep(someMilliseconds)
to let angular load at your final destination before using the angular-specific commands.
Here's my working protractor spec that first authorizes to Google and then counts the items in a repeater:
it('allows the user to add new slides', function () {
browser.driver.get('http://localhost:3000/editor/?state=%7B"action":"create"%7D');
// at this point my server redirects to google's auth page, so let's log in
var emailInput = browser.driver.findElement(by.id('Email'));
emailInput.sendKeys('user@googleappsdomain.com');
var passwordInput = browser.driver.findElement(by.id('Passwd'));
passwordInput.sendKeys('pa$sWo2d'); //you should not commit this to VCS
var signInButton = browser.driver.findElement(by.id('signIn'));
signInButton.click();
// we're about to authorize some permissions, but the button isn't enabled for a second
browser.driver.sleep(1500);
var submitApproveAccess = browser.driver.findElement(by.id('submit_approve_access'));
submitApproveAccess.click();
// this nap is necessary to let angular load.
browser.driver.sleep(10000);
// at this point the protractor functions have something to hook into and
// will work as normal!
element(by.id('new-slide-dropdown-trigger')).click();
element(by.id('new-text-slide-trigger')).click();
var slideList = element.all(by.repeater('slide in deck.getSlides()'));
slideList.then(function(slideElements) {
expect(slideElements.length).toEqual(1);
});
});
I have a Google Auth page object (below) that does the whole job for me.
The key here is "isAngularSite(false);" function witch instructs webdriver if we are entering 'angular' or 'non angular' website.
(implementation below).
/* global element, browser, by */
'use strict';
var GOOGLE_USERNAME = 'my.account@google.com';
var GOOGLE_PASSWORD = 'password';
var ec = protractor.ExpectedConditions;
var Google = function () {
this.emailInput = element(by.id('Email'));
this.passwordInput = element(by.id('Passwd'));
this.nextButton = element(by.id('next'));
this.signInButton = element(by.id('signIn'));
this.approveAccess = element(by.id('submit_approve_access'));
this.loginToGoogle = function () {
var self = this;
/* Entering non angular site, it instructs webdriver to switch
to synchronous mode. At this point I assume we are on google
login page */
isAngularSite(false);
this.emailInput.sendKeys(GOOGLE_USERNAME);
this.nextButton.click();
this.passwordInput.isPresent().then(function () {
browser.wait(ec.visibilityOf(self.passwordInput), BROWSER_WAIT).then(function () {
self.passwordInput.sendKeys(GOOGLE_PASSWORD);
self.signInButton.click();
browser.wait(ec.elementToBeClickable(self.approveAccess), BROWSER_WAIT).then(function () {
self.approveAccess.click();
/* Now we are being redirected to our app, switch back to
async mode (page with angular) */
isAngularSite(true);
});
});
});
}
}
module.exports = new Google();
--- throw this into protractor.conf.js
onPrepare: function () {
global.isAngularSite = function (flag) {
console.log('Switching to ' + (flag ? 'Asynchronous' : 'Synchronous') + ' mode.')
browser.ignoreSynchronization = !flag;
},
global.BROWSER_WAIT = 5000;
}
--- that's how you would use it:
it('should login though google', function(done) {
mainPage.loginBtn.click().
then(function () {
loginPage.connectWithGoogleBtn.click();
googlePage.loginToGoogle();
browser.wait(mainPage.userName.isPresent()).
then(function () {
expect(mainPage.userName.getText()).
toEqual('my.account@google.com');
done();
});
});
});
