Browserstack - IE 11 on Windows (version doesn't matter)

[karolisgrinkevicius]

I'm getting the process hanged up running in browserstack IE 11 @ Windows 7. Downgrading @0.20.2 to @0.19.2 solves the problem.

ERROR Unable to establish one or more of the specified browser connections. This can be caused by network issues or remote device failure.

testcafe 'browserstack:IE@11:Windows 7' e2e-tests/test-suite.js --app 'yarn start' -q -e -S -s e2e-tests/logs.

In Browserstack I can only see the log below 👇🏻

Hi @karolisgrinkevicius, unfortunately I can't reproduce the issue. Try to reinstall v0.20.2 together with all Node.js modules of your project. Also you can try the Browserstack Automate backend by setting the BROWSERSTACK_USE_AUTOMATE environment variable to 1.

[karolisgrinkevicius]

Reinstalled all node modules by force. Tried using BROWSERSTACK_USE_AUTOMATE=1. Still getting the same error.

Have you tried to run Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge? What testcafe-browser-provider-browserstack-version is installed?

[karolisgrinkevicius]

Using testcafe-browser-provider-browserstack@1.4.0.

• Chrome ✅
• Firefox ✅
• Edge ✅
• IE ❌

[AndreyBelym]

Could you share a video of a Browserstack IE session?

I experience the same after upgrading to @0.20.20. IE11 hangs and is not responsive.

[mpham-r7]

i experience the same as OP, but with testcafe 0.19.1 and testcafe-browser-provider-browserstack 1.2.0

[AndreyBelym]

Hi @karolisgrinkevicius, @tjkb, @mpham-r7 , sorry for the late answer. I've watched the video of @karolisgrinkevicius's testing session and noticed that TestCafe stopped at page loading. Likely it means an incompatibility between TestCafe and page scripts. Unfortunately, I need access to the testing page for debugging.

@mpham-r7, you could also upgrade Browserstack provider to v1.4.0.

I will close the issue because no activity has been encountered for a long time.
Feel free to reopen the issue if the problem persists and you can provide an example to reproduce it.

I have this issue. If I use browserstack IE in my tests, the test never starts and after about 10 minutes it will give that error.
