pattern not found error #8

Background: I'm trying to use the grunt-protractor-coverage in my grunt script to get code coverage for protractor functional e2e tests. To get started, I utilized this tutorial, with some minor modifications and it works perfectly. Using this (http://java.dzone.com/articles/measuring-code-coverage) as a guide, I created a new gruntfile, substituting the "express" app with a rails app backend.

The Problem:

When running my gruntfile, I get the following stack trace:

../dummy/node_modules/grunt-protractor-coverage/node_modules/protractor/node_modules/glob/glob.js:130 throw new Error("must provide pattern") ^ Error: must provide pattern at new Glob (../dummy/node_modules/grunt-protractor-coverage/node_modules/protractor/node_modules/glob/glob.js:130:11) at glob ../dummy/node_modules/grunt-protractor-coverage/node_modules/protractor/node_modules/glob/glob.js:57:11) at Function.globSync as sync at Function.ConfigParser.resolveFilePatterns (../dummy/node_modules/grunt-protractor-coverage/node_modules/protractor/lib/configParser.js:89:26) at Runner.run (../dummy/node_modules/grunt-protractor-coverage/node_modules/protractor/lib/runner.js:323:24) at process.

1) I'm missing some parameter from my config file which would correctly retrieve the files needed 2) There is a syntax issue Any idea why it's throwing this error?

My Config File:

protractor_coverage: { options: { configFile: '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/protractor/referenceConf.js', // Default config file keepAlive: true, // If false, the grunt process stops when the test fails. noColor: false, // If true, protractor will not use colors in its output. coverageDir: '<%= dirs.instrumentedE2E %>', args: {} }, phantom: { options: { args: { baseUrl: 'http://localhost:3000/', // Arguments passed to the command 'browser': 'phantomjs' } } }, chrome: { options: { args: { baseUrl: 'http://localhost:3000/', // Arguments passed to the command 'browser': 'chrome' } } } },

Hello Shellzie,

As my understanding, protractor cannot get specs pattern. Do you use relative path in your configuration file?

May be you met the same issue like me https://github.com/r3b/grunt-protractor-coverage/issues/7

Hi,

I've tried both relative and absolute paths to my config file and my spec files but I get the same error as above:

......./node_modules/grunt-protractor-coverage/node_modules/protractor/node_modules/glob/glob.js:130 throw new Error("must provide pattern") ^ Error: must provide pattern at new Glob (........node_modules/grunt-protractor-coverage/node_modules/protractor/node_modules/glob/glob.js:130:11) at glob

Is this similar to the error you had too?

The new version (0.2.8) seems to have fixed the error above. Thanks for your quick turnaround with the new release!
