I know this isn't your fault but I'd like to trace this here for future users.
google-chrome makes use of /dev/shm for runtime data. In docker images this mount point is small by default (64mo), and this causes chrome to crash / freeze.
Using protractor and jasmine, there is no error message and it looks like a timeout.
The fix for this is either :
Increase the SHM size (or mount it to the host's shm)
Start chrome with flag --disable-dev-shm-usage
That's it.
Feel free to close this or eventually add it to your README for poor souls like us that lost 4 days on that issue ;-)
