'Protractor is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file

I have protractor installed on windows slave machine. I am trying to run my script using node index.js. If I trigger job from jenkins to run above command it gives error like Protractor is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.. But when I run command directly on slave machine it execute it successfully.

You can use the Jenkins NodeJS plugin(https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/NodeJS+Plugin) to install node and additional npm packages like protractor, grunt, etc.

After installing npm packages at global level, you can select the "Provide Node & npm bin/folder to PATH" checkbox to ensure you can run "protractor", "grunt" into shell or batch command.

Hope this helps.

I had same problem

  1. In jenkins, just go to same directory where protractor and webdriver file is present after installing npm install -g protractor
  2. like in build environment > cd go to same directory then
  3. run commands with node appended to them such as

node webdriver-manager start node protractor "path where config.js" is kept

This solution works for me!! Happy Automating

This Issue occurs because if you have installed the NodeJS after starting the Jenkins server.

The solution is simple: Restart your Jenkins Server
