Error running test in AngularJS tutorial, step-3

Question

I get the following when trying to run the end-to-end test in the angular tutorial (http://docs.angularjs.org/tutorial/step_03)...

I did "git checkout -f step-3" so it's straight from the repo...

[2013-04-05 07:17:07.774] [WARN] config - "/" is proxied, you should probably change urlRoot to avoid conflicts
INFO [testacular]: Testacular server started at http://localhost:9876/
INFO [launcher]: Starting browser Chrome
INFO [Chrome 26.0 (Mac)]: Connected on socket id CamYxe8MuPk52Agq6g5L
WARN [proxy]: failed to proxy /app/index.html (Error: connect ECONNREFUSED)
WARN [proxy]: failed to proxy /app/index.html (Error: connect ECONNREFUSED)

I'm running the app inside a Rails app, which is being served by WEBrick on port 3000. So I change the testacula config to...

proxies = {
'/': 'http://localhost:3000/'
};

...then the test runs but fails with

Chrome 26.0 (Mac) PhoneCat App Phone list view should filter the phone list as user types into the search box FAILED
expect repeater '.phones li' count toBe 3
/Users/paul/rails_projects/angularjs/public/angular-phonecat/test/e2e/scenarios.js:15:7: expected 3 but was 0

So it seems it's not navigating to the page correctly. Anyone have any ideas?

Cheers

Update your angular-phonecat/config/testacular-e2e.conf.js proxy to this:

proxies = {
  '/': 'http://localhost:3000/angular-phonecat/'
};

The tests in angular-phonecat/test/e2e/scenarios.js are expecting to be able to reach:

http://localhost:3000/app/index.html  

Updating the proxy to the above configuration will fix this (or you could move all the files from /Users/paul/rails_projects/angularjs/public/angular-phonecat/* directly into your public folder)
