Fast and easy installation of Nightwatch into your projects
Framework & Language Supported: Angular
This project is a Schematics implementation that allows you to easily integrate Nightwatch into your Angular projects.
This Schematic will:
🏗️ Install Nightwatch, and it's dependencies
⚙️ Add NPM scripts for running Nightwatch tests
📦 Scaffold base Nightwatch config and test files
❓ Prompt for removal of Protractor files and configuration
Run as one command in an Angular CLI app directory. Note this will add the schematic as a dependency to your project.
ng add @nightwatch/schematics
One can provide following options:
Option | Description |
---|---|
noBuilder | This will skip the builder addition, leaving the angular.json file unmodified and requiring you to run Nightwatch from the command line or through your IDE. Include --noBuilder in your ng add command. |
With the custom builder installed, you can run Nightwatch with the following commands:
ng e2e
ng run {your-project-name}:nightwatch-run
These two commands do the same thing. They will run nightwatch e2e tests.
Once Nightwatch is added to your project, all Nightwatch CLI options will be available when triggering e2e tests. E.g.: --verbose
, --retries
etc.
Install Schematics CLI globally
npm install -g @angular-devkit/schematics-cli
Install Nightwatch-schematics in your project
npm install @nightwatch/schematics
Run following command to install Nightwatch in your project:
schematics @nightwatch/schematics:ng-add
Once Nightwatch is added to your project, all Nightwatch CLI options will be available when triggering e2e tests. E.g.: --verbose
, --retries
etc. One can update e2e:test
to include cli options.

This command will update nightwatch schematic package
npm update @nightwatch/schematics
The best way to ask for help and to report bugs is to open an issue.
Gitter is another option.
It's very simple, you just have to run ng add @nightwatch/schematics
command, and it will prompt you to remove Protractor from angular project.
All you have to do is install the relevant drivers, and replace env
value (Check the column names in the table below) env-name
in angular.json
. The config in angular.json
will look like this.
"nightwatch-run": {
"builder": "@nightwatch/schematics:nightwatch",
"options": {
"devServerTarget": "angularapp:serve",
"tsConfig": "../nightwatch/tsconfig.e2e.json",
"config": "./nightwatch.conf.js",
"env": "<env-name>"
},
"configurations": {
"production": {
"devServerTarget": "angularapp:serve:production"
}
}
},

"env": "<env-name>"
},

Angular App | npm run e2e |
Typescript Project | npm run e2e:test |
Name | driver | command |

🛠️ Node.js and npm are required for the scripts. Make sure it's installed on your machine.
⬇️ Install the dependencies for the schematic and the sandbox application
npm i && cd sandbox && npm i && cd ..
🖇 Link the schematic in the sandbox to run locally
npm run link:sandbox
🏃 Run the schematic
npm run build:clean:launch
Execute the schematic against the sandbox. It will add Nightwatch config, tests, and custom builder, then run e2e tests in the sandbox.
npm run test
Run the unit tests using Jasmine as a runner and test framework
npm run build:test
npm run test:unit
Running the schematic locally performs file system changes. The sandbox is version-controlled so that viewing a diff of the changes is trivial. After the schematic has run locally, reset the sandbox with the following.
npm run clean
