Selenium Node + Sauce Labs Testing: Cannot Finish a Task

Question

I'm using Sauce Labs to run my Selenium test scripts with Mocha as the testing framework. Scripts ran perfectly, but the problem is, the job does not finish - seems driver.quit() is ignored, and I'm prompted a timeout error after 90 secs.

Here's the code:

const { driver } = require('./config');
const { By, until } = require('selenium-webdriver');

describe('Integration test', function () {
  this.timeout(20000);

  it('can login as test user', function () {
    driver.get('https://www.example.com');
    driver.wait(until.elementIsNotVisible(driver.findElement(By.id('vale'))), 8000, 'Vale cannot fade');
    driver.findElement(By.name('email')).sendKeys('test_user@test.com');
    driver.findElement(By.name('password')).sendKeys('password');
    return driver.findElement(By.id('authFormSubmitButton')).click();
  });

  after(() => {
    console.log('Quiting driver');
    // This does not work!
    driver.quit();
  });
});

In the config a driver is built and connected to remote server.

When running this, in the console I can see the test passing and Quiting driver message, but in Sauce labs dashboard the task just keeps waiting until time out.

Btw I tested the above code with local chromdriver and everything works fine - driver is quitted immediately after the task.

Any help or idea is appreciated.

Answer 1

Needs a return before driver.quit().

Instead of calling done(), Mocha accepts a promise as return value. If a test returns a promise, Mocha understands that it’s asynchronous, and waits for the Promise to be resolved before passing to the next test.
