Protractror e2e tests with Teamcity - Wrong Build Steps

Question

I'm trying to set up a protractor e2e project with TeamCity 2019.1. I've created Project, connected Agent, connected Subversion with repository.

I have Problem with set correct build steps.

How I'm running my tests locally:

webdriver-manager update
webdriver-manager start
protractor conf.js

How my build steps looks like:

NPM Install - Command Line - npm install
Run e2e Tests - Command Line - webdriver-manager update, webdriver-manager start
Ryn Protractro - Command Line - protractor conf.js

I'm receiving 100 code error which probably belong to protractror

What I've tried:

to run with: Start-Process webdriver-manager start -passthru

webdriver-manager start --standalone

also the rest of the solutions from Stack - Unable to run Protractor - ECONNREFUSED connect ECONNREFUSED

Question:

Does anyone know what build steps should I set to successful run execution? Anyone have a similar problem and know how to force it?

I'm just starting my journey with TeamCity, that's why I'm asking for understanding.

`Error: ECONNREFUSED connect ECONNREFUSED127.0.0.1:4444**`, maybe something is using port `4444` on your host? — Rob, Nov 28 '19 at 12:06
while running locally: ```Selenium Server is up and running on port 4444``` but when I was running through Teamcity one of my build step is to start Selenium server, which probably failing — Aleksandra Żuchewicz, Nov 28 '19 at 12:13
have you tried removing the `seleniumAddress` configuration from your conf.js file? That should launch it locally — Joaquin Casco, Nov 28 '19 at 12:42

In case anyone would like to build Protractor Tests with TeamCity:

Build steps I have chosen was correct, Selenium Address saved in the configuration file was causing the problem.

Build Steps:

Conf.js:

exports.config = {
  framework: "jasmine2",
  //seleniumAddress: "http://localhost:4444/wd/hub",

  SELENIUM_PROMISE_MANAGER: false,

  capabilities: {
    browserName: "chrome",
    shardTestFiles: true,
    maxInstances: 3,
    chromeOptions: {
      args: [
        "show-fps-counter=true",
        "--window-size=2000,1600" /*"--headless"*/
      ],
    }
  },
  onPrepare: async function() {
    await browser.waitForAngularEnabled(false);
    // Configuration for TeamCity Reporter
    let jasmineReporters = require("jasmine-reporters");
    jasmine.getEnv().addReporter(new jasmineReporters.TeamCityReporter());
  },

  suites: {
    Dashboard: []
  }
};
