Hi

[Robert Jaros]

How did you create your project? With Project Wizard? Copied the ktor fullstack template?

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

Project Wizard

[Robert Jaros]

do you run gradle task from the command line or from IntelliJ?

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

IntelliJ

[Robert Jaros]

can you try running it from the command line?

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

Give me one sec

[Robert Jaros]

Some issues were reported when running gradle tasks from IntelIJ. It could be it.

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

I have deleted that test project and now I recreate another one

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

What's the command to give on terminal?

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

I don't see the task here anymore

[Robert Jaros]

./gradlew frontendBrowserTest

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

> Task :frontendBrowserTest FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':frontendBrowserTest'.
> Errors occurred during launch of browser for testing.
- ChromeHeadless
Please make sure that you have installed browsers.
Or change it via
browser {
testTask {
useKarma {
useFirefox()
useChrome()
useSafari()
}
}
}

* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

I think is a problem with headless browser architecture now?

[Robert Jaros]

It looks so

[Robert Jaros]

you can try changing it to Safari

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

I can execute the tests only in CI

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

Or I can try to use Safari?

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

BUILD SUCCESSFUL in 24s
12 actionable tasks: 5 executed, 7 up-to-date

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

I changed in useSafari()

[Robert Jaros]

do you have Chrome installed in your system?

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

No, but I can install

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

But I think useChromeHeadless() use a headless version

[Robert Jaros]

I'm not sure but I think it uses the browser from your system - it just runs it in headless mode

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

This use the browsers

useKarma {
useFirefox()
useChrome()
useSafari()
}

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

This use headless

useKarma {
    useChromeHeadless()
}

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

What I want to do at this point is to have gradle use the browser locally and headless chrome on CI

[Robert Jaros]

I think both useChrome() and useChromeheadless() options are using the browser installed in your system. The first option is running it as normal browser (and the GUI session is required). And the second option is using the headless mode, so can be run on CI. But the builder for CI needs to have chrome installed anyway.

[Robert Jaros]

take a look at this page:
https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/06/headless-karma-mocha-chai

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

You are right. Downloaded and run.
Worked!

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

Thanks a lot

[Massimiliano Bertinetti]

BTW now it works also from IntelliJ
