Locate elements inside Shadow-root using Protractor

Question

Most of my application's elements are under shadow-root(open). I need to automate them using Protractor framework. deepCSS didnt work out. Please help me with automating these elements - mostly click.

I have to click on shadow-root elements using my protractor automation framework. I tried deepCSS, xpath etc. nothing worked.

    var spanElem = element.all(by.deepCss('.heading'));
    spanElem.click()
            //browser.actions().mouseMove(spanElem).click().perform();

First of all: what's the error you get? Second: Can you provide HTML source of the page. And last but not least: `spanElem` is `ElementArrayFinder` - you can not perform `click` method on it.
