protractor: Tests fail after upgrade to version 0.20.1

I’m in the process of rewriting the e2e tests from the angularfire-seed to use protractor instead of karma/angular-scenario and experience some unsurmountable issues. Please let me know how I can help to narrow the issue further.

After upgrading using the following statements on a mac os x 10.6.8

# npm update -g protractor
/usr/local/share/npm/bin/protractor -> /usr/local/share/npm/lib/node_modules/protractor/bin/protractor

Just a small side note, if you are running protractor with grunt, the selenium jar must be updated in the grunt-protractor-runner dir.

So the command is:

 ./node_modules/grunt-protractor-runner/node_modules/protractor/bin/webdriver-manager update

I was first updating it at: ./node_modules/protractor/ and that would only work when you run protractor from command line.

I post this because others may find it useful.
