IE Driver getCurrentUrl() issue

[sathishkumar-d]

Hi,

I am using protractor runner to kick start Selenium with IEDriver using
seleniumArgs: ['-Dwebdriver.ie.driver=IEDriverServer.exe']
in the config file.

Selenium with IEDriver works just fine and i can see the specs getting executed in the IE 10 browser.

But i am facing just one issue getCurrentUrl() API always returns the entry URL which was used in the first ptor.get and doesn't show any updates.

Though the page hashes are changing in the IE browser during spec execution getCurrentUrl() API always return the first get URL.

Note : Application is based on manual bootstrap with #/page based links.

Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

I am currently using:

ptor.executeScript("return window.document.location.href").then(function(realUrl){
  expect(<your expected URL here>).toEqual(realUrl);
});

Instead of getCurrentUrl() when something like this happens. Although I am not manually boostrapping angular so there is a chance this may not work in your case as manual boostrapping can make things difficult.

Same problem here with getCurrentUrl & IEDriverServer

Same here.

I'm using Angular's $location.absUrl() with this client-side script:

/**
 * Return the current url using $location.absUrl().
 * 
 * arguments[0] {string} The selector housing an ng-app
 */
clientSideScripts.getLocationAbsUrl = function() {
  var el = document.querySelector(arguments[0]);
  return angular.element(el).injector().get('$location').absUrl();
};

I think this is closed with #254

As of version '0.22.0', I'm still experiencing this issue. Replacing browser.getCurrentUrl with manual executeScript fixed it for me.

I'm seeing the same issue here, also using IE10 and Protractor 0.22.0
