Courgette - issue with running test

Question

I'm trying to use Courgette to test an Angular web app. This is my first time so I started with a tutorial from here:

The thing is that I can't run even the built in test. this is my conf.js:

    const path = require('path');
require('babel-core/register');

const specsPath = 'uiTests';
const outputPath = 'uiTestResult';
const cukeTractorPath = 'node_modules/cucumber-protractor/uiTestHelpers';

exports.pomConfig = {
  outputPath,
  timeoutInSeconds: 10,
  pagesPath: path.resolve(specsPath, 'pages'),
  componentsPath: path.resolve(specsPath, 'components'),
  baseUrl: 'https://www.google.com/', // <------------ SET THE URL TO YOUR PROJECT HERE
};

exports.cucumberHtmlReporterConfig = {};

const cukeTags = process.env.cukeTags ? process.env.cukeTags.replace(',', ' or ') : '';

const protractorConfig = {
  directConnect: true,
  ignoreUncaughtExceptions: true,
  framework: 'custom',
  frameworkPath: require.resolve('protractor-cucumber-framework'),
  specs: [
    `${specsPath}/features/**/*.feature`,
  ],
  capabilities: {
    // acceptInsecureCerts: true, // uncomment to ignore SSL warnings
    'shardTestFiles': !cukeTags && !process.env.linearise && !process.env.showStepDefinitionUsage,
    'maxInstances': 4,
    browserName: 'chrome',
    chromeOptions: {
      args: ['--window-size=1100,800'].concat(process.env.disableHeadless ? [] : ['--headless', '--disable-gpu']),
    },
    // 'browserName': 'firefox',
    // 'moz:firefoxOptions': {
    //   args: [].concat(process.env.disableHeadless ? [] : ['-headless']),
    //   prefs: {
    //     'general.useragent.override': 'Automated tests',
    //   },
    // },
  },
  cucumberOpts: {
    'require': [
      // `${specsPath}/helpers/globals.js`,
      `${cukeTractorPath}/globals.js`,
      `${cukeTractorPath}/hooks/attachScenarioNameBefore.js`,
      `${cukeTractorPath}/hooks/attachScreenshotAfter.js`,
      `${cukeTractorPath}/hooks/pageObjectModelBefore.js`,
      `${cukeTractorPath}/hooks/addMethodsBefore.js`,
      `${cukeTractorPath}/hooks/setDefaultTimeout.js`,
      `${cukeTractorPath}/stepDefinitions/*.js`,
      `${specsPath}/stepDefinitions/*.js`,
      // `${specsPath}/helpers/hooks.js`,
    ],
    'tags': ['~ignore'].concat(cukeTags || []),
    'format': [
      'node_modules/cucumber-protractor/cucumberFormatter.js',
      `json:./${outputPath}/report.json`,
    ].concat(process.env.showStepDefinitionUsage ? 'node_modules/cucumber/lib/formatter/usage_formatter.js' : []),
    'profile': false,
    'no-source': true,
  },
  onPrepare: () => { browser.ignoreSynchronization = true; },
};

exports.config = protractorConfig;

And this is the message from the terminal:

I'm not even sure where the problem is. According to the error message the element in my 'When' section can't be found but chrome doesn't even open up in the first place.

Can anyone help with this?

Answer 1

It could either be that the sample was broken at the time or that your locale is different to en-gb and the text is wrong in the button. Isn't the most reliable of samples, needs to be changed to something more stable ideally, something hosted by courgette.
