browser.driver.get('http://192.168.1.2:8100');
}
}
i named it as e2e.js
my test file is
describe('header Module', function(){
beforeEach(function() {
var header = element(by.css('title'));
});
it('should check title text',function(){
expect(header.getText()).toContain('Ionic Blank Starter');
});
});
i downloaded an blank ionic app and i want to test the header contains elements "Ionic Blank Starter"

You are not handling async code well in your project. header.getText() returns a promise which you need to resolve before asserting the text. You can do something like this:
describe('header Module', function(){
it('should check title text',function(callback){
var header = element(by.css('.title'));
header.getText()
.then(function (text) {
expect(text).toContain('Ionic Blank Starter');
callback();
});
});
});
