A simple WebdriverIO - Mocha test doesn't display browser

问题

I want to test NOT headlessly but I cannot do that.

The below code start chrome browser. NOT headless. OK.

// test.js

var webdriverio = require('webdriverio');

var options = {
  desiredCapabilities: {
    browserName: 'chrome'
  }
};

webdriverio
  .remote(options)
  .init()
  .url('http://www.google.com')
  .title(function(err, res) {
    console.log('Title was: ' + res.value);
  })
  .end();

The below code (Mocha test code) doesn't start chrome browser by $ mocha test.js.

Headless. NG.

But the test pass! I cannot understand this.

I checked the log of Selenium Server, but it doesn't show (left) any log. No trace.

// test-mocha.js

var expect = require('expect.js');
var webdriverio = require('webdriverio');

var options = {
  desiredCapabilities: {
    browserName: 'chrome'
  }
};

describe('WebdriverIO Sample Test', function () {
  it('should return "Google"', function () {
    webdriverio
      .remote(options)
      .init()
      .url('http://www.google.com')
      .title(function(err, res) {
        var title = res.value;
        expect(title).to.be('Google');
      })
      .end();
  })
});

The test result is as below:

  WebdriverIO Sample Test
    ✓ should return "Google"

  1 passing (4ms)

webdriver.io is asynchronous. Change your test to mark it as asynchronous and use the done callback after all the checks in the test are done. The two changes are: 1. add done as a parameter to the function you pass to it and 2. add the done() call after your expect call.

  it('should return "Google"', function (done) { // <- 1
    webdriverio
      .remote(options)
      .init()
      .url('http://www.google.com')
      .title(function(err, res) {
        var title = res.value;
        expect(title).to.be('Google');
        done(); // <- 2
      })
      .end();
  })

Without this, Mocha thinks your test is synchronous so it just completes the test before webdriverio does its work.
