E2E tests not working if page contains Lottie file.

[ravi-pandit14]

We are facing an issue with E2E Tests. E2E tests are not executed successfully, if page have Lottie file.

We have created this repository to replicate the issue easily. Repository

using package.json dependencies:

"e2e": "npm run e2e-update && npm run e2e-test",
"e2e-ci": "npm run e2e-update && npm run e2e-test --single-run",
"e2e-test": "protractor ./test-config/protractor.conf.js",
"e2e-update": "webdriver-manager update --standalone true --gecko true"

"devDependencies": {
    "@ionic/app-scripts": "3.2.1",
    "@types/node": "^12.0.2",
    "@types/jasmine": "^2.8.9",

Same here. Protractor tests are stopping. Have someone dealt with it?

It is happening only when animation is running so if you remove autoloop tests will resume after first loop

We've run into the same issue. It seems protractor doesn't recognize the page as being stable when animations are running (or it waits for some interval to complete).

We first tried to use Protractor's 'waitForAngularEnabled' set to false, which kinda worked, but then it also doesn't wait for any Angular $timeout and similar to resolve, so that's whole other can of worms, and just made things worse.

In the end, we opted to turn off loop / autoplay for lottie animations via a separate environment config for E2E tests.
