Global installation : Global installation is nothing but the package will be installed at the user level and available in all folder of your file system, you can find these packages at %appdata%/roaming/npm/node_modulesħ. For Local installation, you should use above command without -g npm install protractorĦ. Install the Protractor using below command for global installation npm install protractor -gĥ. Navigate to the folder in which you want to install the protractor if you are going to a local installation.Ĥ. Open VSCode and click View -> Integrated Terminalģ. You can install all the packages from the VS code itself.Ģ. In the case of Protractor, we would be installing an npm package called protractor, and we would be using selenium standalone server jar as a server for executing the protractor.ġ. In Java selenium, we would be using Selenium standalone jar file for executing the selenium sometimes, we may also use selenium-java jar file.
So in case, your application is designed using AngularJS for the front end, so it would be recommended to use Protractor Protractor is an open-source framework specifically for the automation of AngularJS applications, although it can be used to automate non-angular web-based applications. Protractor allows tests to be organized based on the Jasmine Unit test framework, thus allowing you to write both unit and functional tests on Jasmine. This might not be the best choice for non-angular applications because you may prefer more specific synchronization approaches, and the API might not be as flexible as you need. Indeed, you could still use Selenium Web Server API as an alternative to Protractor (with a language of your choice that’s supported) to talk to the Selenium Server, but you will have overheads to handle the asynchronous process Protractor is a test framework for Angular JS applications that uses Selenium to automate the browser behavior (Protractor uses JS but still communicates with Selenium using WebDriverJS). You do not need selenium knowledge to learn protractor and Jasmine
