How to avoid "jasmine.suite() required" error message in protractor?

Question

The code which I wrote for validation of the credentials on my login page is:

describe('Login',function() {
var loginURL;
var email=element(by.id("email"));
var password=element(by.id("password"));
var LoginButton=element(by.buttonText("Sign in"));
});


it('should redirect to login page',function() {
browser.get('https://pacific-meadow-5124-dev-test.herokuapp.com');
loginURL = browser.getCurrentUrl();``
expect(browser.getCurrentUrl()).toEqual(loginURL);
});

it('should warn on wrong/missing values',function(){
email.clear();
password.clear();

password.sendkeys('test');
loginButton.click();
expect(error.getText()).toMatch('missing email');

email.sendkeys('test');
loginButton.click();
expect(error.gettext()).toMatch('invalid email');

email.sendkeys('[email protected]');
password.clear();
loginButton.click();
expect(error.getText()).toMatch('missing password');
});

it('should accept a valid email address and password', function() {
    email.clear();
    password.clear();

    email.sendKeys('[email protected]');
    password.sendKeys('goalsr123');
    loginButton.click();
    expect(browser.getCurrentUrl()).not.toEqual(loginURL);
  });

I am not able to execute above code, getting an error saying that jasmine.suite() required as shown below:

I tried to validate login but not able to validate with using protractor.

Answer 1

you have to use first the jasmine function describe and enclose all your test inside:

describe('my test suite', function() {
    // Here all your it tests
})

Answer 2

Put your it-blocks inside your describe-block.
