protractor can not find element with id

I'm using protractor and i can not understand why when i try to get something by css it works but if i try to get it with id it does not work.

Error message on the btnLogin line

TypeError: undefined is not a function

Some part of the code

browser.get('http://localhost:3000/#!/signin');
expect(element.all(by.css('.btn-social')).count()).toBe(2);
expect(element(by.id('btnLogin').count())).toBe(1);

if i try to do something in a input it works

element(by.id('username')).clear().sendKeys('something');

html of button

<button id="btnLogin" class="btn btn-lg btn-primary btn-block" type="submit">Login</button>

I have no idea what i'm doing wrong :S

Solution

  • You are calling count() on an ElementFinder - the result of element() call.

    Instead, if you really want to check the count, you need element.all():

    expect(element.all(by.id('btnLogin').count())).toBe(1);
