Spectron opens Empty terminals during test run

During execution spectron opens two terminal windows that are blank. First window is the application as I wanted it to be, other windows look like terminals without anything inside.

Currently i focus to the first window using focus().

Does anyone have any idea what's going on ? is it a ChromeDriver issue?

Solution

  • A combination of focus() with setAlwaysOnTop(true) helps. 

     chaiAsPromised.transferPromiseness = app.transferPromiseness;
    return app.start().then( async () => {
      await app.browserWindow.focus();
      await app.browserWindow.setAlwaysOnTop(true);
    });
  });
