This implementation only works in JavaScript, while the Observable transpilation
story gets worked out. Right now, the service just makes a simple request,
and returns an Observable of Response.
Additional functionality will be captured in separate issues.
Fixes#2028
Now, running protractor configs by default only runs e2e tests. If
the --benchmark flag is added, it runs only the perf tests, and always
restarts the browser in between tests. If the --dryrun test is added,
the perf tests are run only once.
This should make it easier to run perf tests versus example e2e tests,
and help stabilize the travis build because perf tests always
run with a clean browser.
* `npm install` now does a full install; auxiliary installation steps
have been integrated into the `postinstall` script.
* Updated developer docs `DEVELOPER.md` accordingly; also added
instructions to dev docs for performing full tests (via `npm test`) --
same as those run on Travis.
* Reorg in tests so that JS tests can run without a Dart env.
Partly fixes#945 **under the assumption that when running JS tests
locally, `ChromeCanary` is the desired browser to use**. Note that CI
tests (Travis) still uses `DartiumWithWebPlatform` across the board
(Maybe because ChromeCanary isn't being installed?)
Fixes#1012.
Closes#1010
Performed a slight refactoring of CI scripts to make it easier for
developers to run the **same** tests as those run on Travis. Defined
`npm` scripts `test-js` and `test-dart`. `npm test` now runs the whole
lot.
Closes#966
