QUnit's "asyncTest" never returns, only in PhantomJS

[siovene]

Hi,
I'm trying to run my unit tests in PhantomJS, but I hit a stumbling block. While everything works in Chrome, QUnit's asyncTest never returns in PhantomJS.

I have written some minimal code to reproduce the issue. Please clone this repository:

https://github.com/siovene/phantomjs-async-test

and then run phantomjs test/phantomjs-index.js

I've tried on PhantomJS 1.6 and 1.9.

Thanks for looking,
Salvatore.

I'm not going to say that this is your actual problem (particularly since I am mobile ATM and can't test it) but you are technically using an incorrect protocol here. It might be your problem, though, as WebKit core seems to be much less robust than its derivatives (e.g. Chrome) at self-correcting these types of issues.

You have 'file://' + file but technically need 'file:///' + file (3 slashes). The 2-slash form is only valid if you specify the machine name (or localhost) as well, e.g. 'file://localhost/' + file.

Hi James, thanks for the reply. Actually file already includes a trailing slash, so the whole path comes out as:

file:///home/siovene/code/phantomjs-async-test/test/index.html

Oh sure, right, non-Windows OS. :)

Due to our very limited maintenance capacity, we need to prioritize our development focus on other tasks. Therefore, this issue will be automatically closed (see #15395 for more details). In the future, if we see the need to attend to this issue again, then it will be reopened. Thank you for your contribution!
