`Running tests` and nothing else

[greenkey]

Hi, I'm trying to make a Dockerfile to run Dalek:

FROM ubuntu:14.04
MAINTAINER Lorenzo Mele <lorenzo@nospam.com>

# update packages before install
RUN apt-get update

# install nodejs
RUN apt-get install nodejs npm -y
RUN ln `which nodejs` /usr/bin/node

# install Dalekjs
RUN npm install dalek-cli -g
# install the Dalek base framework & all its dependencies
RUN npm install dalekjs --save-dev

Then I built the image: sudo docker build -t "local/dalek" . Finally I entered in the VM: sudo docker run -i -t "local/dalek" /bin/bash

I created the file test/my_first_test.js as described here, then I launch the test and this is what appens:

root@a4a525e451da:/mnt/cwd# dalek test/my_first_test.js  -l 5
Running tests
☁ [SYSTEM] dalek-internal-driver: Loading driver: "native"
root@a4a525e451da:/mnt/cwd# 

What am I missing to make the test work?

I also tried to use IE and an interesting error comes out:

root@11f70741ff23:/mnt/cwd# npm install dalek-browser-ie --save-dev
npm WARN package.json test@0.0.1 No repository field.
[...]

What version of IE?

[greenkey]

I don't know, it's the version it downloads when I write npm install dalek-browser-ie --save-dev.

Is there a way to see which drivers and browsers I have and the relate versions?

[ghguy]

It is using whatever on your box. We know only IE 9 works well, that is assuming that your pages are rendered in standard mode. For quirks mode, I do not think the css selectors works decently. For IE 10 or above, it is very slow and might not work at all.

[greenkey]

Sorry, forget about IE.

Please look at the first post: it says Running tests but nothing happens...

[ghguy]

Do you mean ERROR: TypeError: Cannot read property 'setBrowser' of null? If so, have you installed IE driver? i.e. npm install dalek-browser-ie --save-dev ?

@greenkey Can you please report the Node.js version you´re installing in your container?

I just had this problem, where I got the output:

$ dalek test/test.js -b chrome -l 5
Running tests
☁ [SYSTEM] dalek-internal-driver: Loading driver: "native"

I tried node 0.10.25 and 0.10.30.

I fixed the issue by deleting node_modules and re-running npm install. My issue may have been caused by copying over a node_modules from a different machine.

I have the same problem. Only getting "Running tests"

Here are my versions

root@9d69733fb491:/# nodejs -v
v0.10.36

root@dabe0d2b6dc5:/# npm list -g
/usr/lib
├─┬ dalek-cli@0.0.5
└─┬ npm@1.4.28
...

  root@dabe0d2b6dc5:/# npm list
/
└─┬ dalekjs@0.0.9
  ├─┬ dalek-browser-phantomjs@0.0.4
  │ ├─┬ phantomjs@1.9.12
  ├─┬ dalek-driver-native@0.0.6
  │ ├─┬ dalek-internal-webdriver@0.0.5
...

You can reproduce it by running docker run -it --rm yvess/drone-fig bash -l and than run dalek /root/test.js The same same test.js file works on my mac. Any idea what could be the problem? All the node_models are freshly downloaded not copied from another place.

Ok solved the problem. This is quite a basic docker image, no font stuff installed. When I installed phantomjs separately and tried to run it there was an error, no libfreetype etc.

After installing the missing libs it worked.

apt-get install fontconfig-config fonts-dejavu-core libfontconfig1 libfreetype6 libjpeg-turbo8 libjpeg8

Perhaps it would be good if the phantomjs errors would be propagated, so that you see them.

Well sorry for the huge late reply, but it's working! Many thanks to @yvess
