How can I wait for a condition?

2019-01-16 07:36发布

I'm new on protractor, and I'm trying to implement an e2e test. I don't know if this is the right way to do this, but... The page that I want to test is not a full angular page based, so... I'm having some trouble.

On my first spec I have:

describe('should open contact page', function() {
var ptor = protractor.getInstance();

beforeEach(function(){

   var Login = require('./util/Login');
   new Login(ptor);
});

I have created this Login class, but after login I want to open the contact page, but protractor immediately try to find element before the page is fully loaded.

I've tried to use:

browser.driver.wait(function() {

    expect(browser.findElement(by.xpath("//a[@href='#/contacts']")).isDisplayed());
    ptor.findElement(by.xpath("//a[@href='#/contacts']")).click();

});

But it doesn't work... it always try to find the element before the page loads. I tried this one too:

browser.driver.wait(function() {
    expect(ptor.isElementPresent(by.xpath("//a[@href='#/contacts']")));          
    ptor.findElement(by.xpath("//a[@href='#/contacts']")).click();
});

I'm able to do that using browser.sleep(); but I don't think that is a good option. Any idea? On my login class I have:

ptor.ignoreSynchronization = true;

How can I wait for this @href='#/contacts before protractor tries to click on it?

I had the same problem you were having for the longest time while using protractor. In my e2e test I start in a non angular app, then get into an angular portion, then get back out to a non angular portion. Made things tricky. The key is to understand promises and how they work. Here's some examples of my real world code in a functioning e2e test. Hoping this gives you an idea of how to structure your tests. Probably some bad practice in this code, please feel free to improve upon this, but I know that it works, maybe not the best way.

To get to angular I use

var ptor;
var events = require('events');
var eventEmitter = new events.EventEmitter();
var secondClick = require('./second-click');

beforeEach(function () {
    browser.driver.get('http://localhost:8080/');
},10000);

it("should start the test", function () {
    describe("starting", function () {
        it("should find the  link and start the test", function(){
            var elementToFind = by.linkText('Start'); //what element we are looking for
            browser.driver.isElementPresent(elementToFind).then(function(isPresent){
                expect(isPresent).toBe(true); //the test, kind of redundant but it helps pass or fail
                browser.driver.findElement(elementToFind).then(function(start){
                    start.click().then(function(){ //once we've found the element and its on the page click it!! :) 
                        ptor = protractor.getInstance(); //pass down protractor and the events to other files so we can emit events
                        secondClick(eventEmitter, ptor); //this is your callback to keep going on to other actions or test in another file
                    });
                });
            });
        });
    });
},60000);

While in angular this code works

 describe("type in a message ", function(){
        it("should find and type in a random message", function(){
            var elementToFind = by.css('form textarea.limited');
            browser.driver.isElementPresent(elementToFind).then(function(isPresent){
                element(elementToFind).sendKeys(randomSentence).then(function(){
                    console.log("typed in random message");
                    continueOn();
                });
            });
        });
    },15000);

After exiting angular

browser.driver.wait(function(){
   console.log("polling for a firstName to appear");
   return    browser.driver.isElementPresent(by.name('firstName')).then(function(el){
         return el === true;
       });
     }).
   then(function(){
       somefunctionToExecute()
    });

Hope that gives some guidance and helps you out!

Have you tried putting the ng-app in the <html> tag (assuming this part of code is under your control)? This solved a lot of initialization timing problems for me.
