Protractor hangs when pointing to non existing spec file in multi capabilities #4665
Description
I am running protractor with multi capabilities and specific spec files. When one of the spec files does not exists, that multi capability completely hangs and never exits. The other multi capability process continues and when it is finished, protractor keeps waiting on the hanging multi capability I/launcher - 1 instance(s) of WebDriver still running.
The only way to recover, is to find the correct Node.js process and kill it. The hanging multi capability will exit with the following message: Unhandled rejection Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat '<location of non existing spec file>' and will continue with other defined spec files.
I'm using cucumber on top of Protractor. Hence the .feature files as specs.
