Question/Issue: Does jasmine-browser-runner support with selenium-webdriver 4.3+ well ?

[thiensubs]

Hi Team, I saw the jasmine-browser-runner with package.json lock the selenium-webdriver at ^4.1.0. In my project I try to install and use the selenium-webdriver from 4.3+, I got the problem the runner can not connect to jasmine-server and got a Timeout error message.

A summary of some investigations into the issue is provided below.

For Selenium-webdriver: v4.2 will connect to the node server through 127.0.0.1 with Port v4.3 will connect to the node server through the loopback address localhost with Port, somehow the node request can not connect to the loopback address, it will wait until timeout. And that is why we got the Timeout error message.

After trying deeper code changes of v4.2 and v4.3, I saw the code change like the picture below

Any suggestions on how to solve these issues would be greatly appreciated.

As far as I know, jasmine-browser-runner is compatible with selenium-webdriver 4.3. It works on my machine. Additionally, we run nightly tests of both jasmine-browser-runner itself and jasmine-core using jasmine-browser-runner. Those tests use the latest selenium-webdriver 4.x because they don't pin dependency versions, and I didn't notice any failures when 4.3 was the latest version.

It could be that there's either something about your computer or something about your project that's relevant to the problem.

Some things you might check:

• What address does localhost resolve to on your machine?
• Do you have any firewall configuration that might prevent software from either listening to or connecting to any port?
• If you clone this repo and run npm install and npm test inside it, do the tests pass?

I also just noticed that the error message you reported is "the runner can not connect to jasmine-server". That message doesn't come from jasmine-browser-runner.
