ng e2e gives always succeeded even if you change the test to "api works" for example

I temporarily fixed this issues by rolling back the version of protractor to 3.3.0.

Possibly related to this issue angular/protractor#3511

[stefanaerts]

changing it to version 3.3.0 doesnt work with this version of CLI using webpack

so in app.po.ts typescript doesn't find 'protractor/globals'
import { browser, element, by } from 'protractor/globals';

[stefanaerts]

but at least the test failed this way (-) can we make jokes (-)?

[duncanhunter]

@stefanaerts you are right it does not work with protractor 3.03 on a new cli generated app with 1.0.0-beta.11-webpack.8, but my migrated project to 1.0.0-beta.11-webpack.8 this worked for me.

I did, however, run a quick test on this newly generated app and updated my protractor to protractor 4.0.5 and it worked. First I deleted my node_modules and did a clean npm install and it started failing my tests I wanted to fail.

Not sure why my migrated app is different than a new one?

[stefanaerts]

what is in your package.json?
Does your app.po.ts does this
import { browser, element, by } from 'protractor/globals';

[duncanhunter]

Here is a link to a repo I just pushed to, look at initial commits 1 and 2. https://github.com/duncanhunter/ngrx-demo

I took the following steps

1. Create new cli generated app
   ng new ngrx-demo
2. Check cli version is 1.0.0-beta.11-webpack.8
   ng -v
3. Delete node_modeules
   rm -rf node_modules
4. Update protractor in package.json
   "protractor": "4.0.5"
5. npm install
   npm i
6. Change app.e2e-spec.ts to fail not pass
   `expect(page.getParagraphText()).toEqual('app work!');``
7. Start the app
   ng serve
8. Run the e2e tests
   ng e2e

[stefanaerts]

it works for me also now, but not like that.
i did several things,maybe some of them do not matter,but i give them all:
updates to package.json:

1. removed angular/compiler-cli
2. add "@angular/platform-server": "2.0.0-rc.5",
3. add "@types/webpack": "^1.12.33",
4. add "reflect-metadata": "0.1.8",
5. changed "karma-remap-istanbul": "0.2.1" back to "karma-remap-istanbul": "^0.2.1",
6. add "protractor": "4.0.5",

my types dependencies contain now

i changed typings.d.ts to this picture because of errors in console when i run ng serve or build:

now both test options work, ng test and ng e2e work like they should work.
i changed one line in typings.d.ts back for require to be of type any because test.ts "require.context" complained "context" does not exist on NodeRequire.

now everything still works but I only get an error in the console when i run ng test:

ERROR in [default] /Users/stefanaerts/tmp/testcliwebpack/src/typings.d.ts:7:12
Subsequent variable declarations must have the same type. Variable 'require' must be of type 'NodeRequire', but here has type 'any'.

BUT the tests work, so for me this can be closed

[stefanaerts]

@Brocco
Mike maybe an enhancement for the CLI.

Well i changed it better:

and did a cast in the test.ts:

i added more tests to components in separated directories and and test.ts found them all, so the script works fine this way.

Here's some background: angular/protractor#3505

[stefanaerts]

[ghost]

Like I said, I just wanted to give some background regardless of whether it's solved or not.
