    💥 Breaking Changes

    • (2bde92b) chore(jasmine): remove jasmine 1.3

    and update docs. Also, use jasmine 2 for running all Protractor's unit tests.

    BREAKING CHANGE: Now, both jasmine and jasmine2 frameworks use jasmine 2.3. Users still using jasmine version <2 will have to upgrade.

    • (18e1f71) chore(webdriver): upgrade Protractor to webdriver 2.48.2

    BREAKING CHANGE: 1) Users will no longer be able to use node versions <4. 2) There is significant changes to the control flow, and tests may need to be modified to be compliant with the new control flow. See https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/blob/master/javascript/node/selenium-webdriver/CHANGES.md

    • (ac1e21e) chore(plugins): Split first party plugins into seperate repos

    BREAKING CHANGE:

    The Accessibility, NgHint, Timeline, and Console plugins are now located in their own separate node modules. You will need to explicitly require each module you use. See https://github.com/angular/protractor/blob/master/docs/plugins.md#first-party-plugins for info for each module.

    • (ddb8584) chore(cucumber): Remove cucumber from internal implementation

    BREAKING CHANGE:

    Cucumber has been community maintained for a while, and in order to allow it to move faster, it is no longer part of the core Protractor library. It is now published on npm under protractor-cucumber-framework and will require setting frameworkPath in your configuration file. See https://github.com/angular/protractor/blob/master/docs/frameworks.md#using-cucumber for full instructions on use now.
