starter project for e2e tests with testcafe

testcafe-starter's Issues

Report does not show failed tests

When executing npm run testcafe-static-analyser the report always show the tests results as passed even when they fail.

static-analyser-report.json

  "name": "I should see first and last name",
            "result": {
              "duration": 0,
              "status": "passed"
            },

console output:

1) AssertionError: expected 'Automated Test' to include 'aaa'

     Browser: Chrome 71.0.3578 / Linux 0.0.0

        10 |/**
        11 | * @step
        12 | * @then("I should see first and last name")
        13 | */
        14 |export default async (_: string) => {
      > 15 |  await t.expect(basePage.usermenuName.innerText).contains('aaa');
        16 |};
        17 |

Add a script to create a step definition file from a Given/When/Then sentence

Suggestion

This project is very a good idea in order to have e2e tests written in Gerhkins style however it is tightly coupled to Test Café
It would be better to be agnostic of the technology of the selectors and can choose protractor, test café and so ?
What do you think?

unable start tests more then in one browser simuntaneously

Set option "all" in "test" script
start "npm test"
Expected: all tests run in all locally installed browsers
Actual result: go error

"ERROR Unable to establish one or more of the specified browser connections. This can be caused by network issues or remote device failure."

dependency conflict

I am trying to use this repo for a PoC for a client and updated the dependencies to latest:

"dependencies": {
    "@types/chalk": "2.2.0",
    "@types/minimist": "1.2.2",
    "@types/node": "20.4.5",
    "chalk": "5.3.0",
    "jsome": "2.5.0",
    "minimist": "1.2.8",
    "rimraf": "5.0.1",
    "slash": "5.1.0",
    "testcafe": "3.1.0",
    "testcafe-browser-provider-saucelabs": "2.0.0",
    "testcafe-reporter-cucumber-json": "6.3.0",
    "ts-node": "10.9.1",
    "typescript": "3.9.6"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin": "3.6.1",
    "@typescript-eslint/parser": "3.6.1",
    "eslint": "8.46.0",
    "eslint-config-prettier": "8.9.0",
    "eslint-plugin-import": "2.28.0",
    "eslint-plugin-prettier": "5.0.0",
    "eslint-plugin-testcafe": "0.2.1",
    "mem": "9.0.2",
    "multiple-cucumber-html-reporter": "3.4.0",
    "prettier": "3.0.0"
  },

and getting the following error on npm install

npm install

I don't want to use --force unless it's the only option.

@hdorgeval any help would be highly appreciated.

Can't execute first step for npm install

After cloning this repo, and try to execute npm install, it will pop up an error like below.

> [email protected] preinstall C:\Users\nqwang\Documents\github\testcafe-starter
> rimraf node_modules

'rimraf' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
npm ERR! errno 1
npm ERR! [email protected] preinstall: `rimraf node_modules`
npm ERR! Exit status 1
npm ERR!
npm ERR! Failed at the [email protected] preinstall script.
npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above.
npm WARN Local package.json exists, but node_modules missing, did you mean to install?

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR!     C:\Users\nqwang\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache\_logs\2018-10-26T06_05_13_257Z-debug.log

The reason is that computer doesn't have rimraf installed before executing npm install. It is better to update readme file to add this command npm install rimraf -g before npm install.

Integrating into an existing app

It seems this repo is meant to use as a boilerplate for a greenfield app? Are there instructions for adding the infrastructure to an existing app?
