Protractor tests failed when I run it in headless tests using phantomjs 1.9.7.

This is my test code:
describe('Scenario 1: A user can view the login page.', function() {
var loginUrl;

it('should redirect to the login page', function() {
browser.get('http://localhost:8080/app/');
loginUrl = browser.getCurrentUrl();
expect(browser.getCurrentUrl()).toEqual(loginUrl);
expect(browser.getCurrentUrl()).toContain('/login');
});
}, 100000);

describe('Scenario 2: A user logins using valid username and password.', function() {
it('should accepts valid username and password', function() {
browser.findElement(protractor.By.id('username')).sendKeys('micmic');
browser.findElement(protractor.By.id('password')).sendKeys('password');
browser.findElement(protractor.By.id('submit')).click();
browser.sleep(1000);
expect(browser.getCurrentUrl()).toContain('/dashboard');
browser.findElement(protractor.By.linkText('Settings')).click();
browser.sleep(1000);
browser.findElement(protractor.By.linkText('Branding')).click();
browser.sleep(1000);
browser.findElement(protractor.By.linkText('sss')).click();
browser.sleep(1000);
});

afterEach(function() {
browser.findElement(by.id('logout')).then(function(elem) {
elem.click();
});
browser.sleep(10000);
});
}, 10000);

This is my code in conf.js:

I don't think this issue belongs in this repo.

Hi Ma'am Julie, Good day! Yes Ma'am Julie, the issue belongs to phantomjs. I used xvfb(X virtual framebuffer) to make the headless tests in protractor works. Thanks Ma'am. :) Cheers, Michael
