Current master throws an error when installing from scratch:

/home/work/gtm-datalayer-test/node_modules/webdriverio/build/lib/launcher.js:162 throw _iteratorError; ^

Following commands fixes it:

cd node_modules/wdio-spec-reporter/ npm install npm install -g grunt-cli grunt build

Looks like the issue is when running npm install for gtm-datalayer-test as a root / sudo user. It needs to be run as a local user.

Potential fixes:

• Throw an error if root / sudo, and require local user access
• Add --unsafe-perm to npm install in wdio-spec-reporter to disregard sudo user (security risk?)
