Retry failing Jasmine test?

Question

I have a few functional tests in Jasmine that will periodically fail due to something in the DOM not having finished composing. I would like to be able to have these tests retry a couple of times rather than failing the test suite.

I'm looking for something similar to the way that Mocha behaves with https://mochajs.org/#retry-tests or, even better, the ability to specify a wait and then retry.

Per Jasmine's owner:

this is functionality we'd like to keep out of jasmine itself.

protractor-flake has been recommended to solve this, assuming you are using Protractor.
