Assert an array reduces to true

Leave a Comment

In one of the tests, we need to assert that one of the 3 elements is present. Currently we are doing it using the protractor.promise.all() and Array.reduce():

var title = element(by.id("title")),     summary = element(by.id("summary")),     description = element(by.id("description"));  protractor.promise.all([     title.isPresent(),     summary.isPresent(),     description.isPresent() ]).then(function (arrExists) {     expect(arrExists.reduce(function(a,b) { return a || b; })).toBe(true); }); 

Is there a better way to solve it with Jasmine without resolving the promises explicitly? Would we need a custom matcher or it is possible to solve with the built-in matchers?

You could simply get all the elements with a single selector and assert that the count is superior to zero:

var title_summary_description = element.all(by.css("#title, #summary, #description")); expect(title_summary_description.count()).toBeGreaterThan(0);

Check this:

let EC = protractor.ExpectedConditions;  let title = EC.visibilityOf($("#title")),     summary = EC.visibilityOf($("#summary")),     description = EC.visibilityOf($("#description"));  expect(EC.or(title, summary, description)() ).toBeTruthy('Title or summary or description should be visible on the page') 

Notice that i am executing function that ExpectedCondition returns - so i am getting result of that function(Promise that will be resolved to boolean) instead of function.

You can use .presenceOf() if you need it instead .visibilityOf()
