Protractor is an end-to-end test framework for Angular and AngularJS applications, built on top of WebDriverJS/Selenium. It runs tests against applications in a real browser, interacting with them as a user would.
Use cases
- run e2e tests for angular apps
- automate browser testing with selenium webdriver
- test angularjs applications end to end
- simulate user interactions in a real browser
- write integration tests for web frontends
When to choose
- maintaining a legacy AngularJS or Angular project that already uses Protractor
- you need Angular-specific synchronization with pending HTTP requests and digest cycles in an existing codebase
When to avoid
- starting any new project - Protractor reached end-of-life in August 2023 and is deprecated
- you want an actively maintained e2e framework - use Playwright or Cypress instead
- testing non-Angular applications where modern tooling is a better fit
