protractor: Error: Timeout - Async callback was not invoked within timeout specified by jasmine.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_INTERVAL

i use the example from “http://www.protractortest.org/#/tutorial”

// spec.js
describe('Protractor Demo App', function() {
  it('should have a title', function() {
    browser.get('http://juliemr.github.io/protractor-demo/');

    expect(browser.getTitle()).toEqual('Super Calculator');
  });
});

// conf.js
exports.config = {
  framework: 'jasmine',
  seleniumAddress: 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub',
  specs: ['spec.js']
}

Now run the test with

protractor conf.js

Then the console display:

@sallojusuresh, the below solution worked. jasmineNodeOpts: { defaultTimeoutInterval: 2500000 }, Question - When we can set a default time as above, where comes the use of setTimeout function in ‘beforeEach’ and done callbacks in ‘it’. Any idea?

I have fixed by the following way

 var originalTimeout;

    beforeEach(function() {
        originalTimeout = jasmine.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_INTERVAL;
        jasmine.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_INTERVAL = 10000;
    });

    afterEach(function() {
      jasmine.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_INTERVAL = originalTimeout;
    });

@juliemr I’m having the same problem and increasing ScriptsTimeout does not work for me. Do you have any solution for this? Thank you.

im having same problem and the other post dont work for me. @juliemr any solution for this? i tried allScriptsTimeout: 900000 but this dont solve the problem.

In my case, this error was caused by improper use of “fixture.detectChanges()” It seems this method is a event listener (async) which will only respond a callback when changes are detected. If no changes are detected it will not invoke the callback, resulting in a timeout error. Hope this helps 😃

Doesn’t work for me either. increase defaultTimeoutInterval doesn’t solve it
