The last time you opened APP_NAME, it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows. Do you want to try to reopen its windows again? about spectron

@blainesch yes, I had logic in the before-quit that was running asynchronously and not completing before the application quit.

The last time you opened Kno2 Desktop, it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows. Do you want to try to reopen its windows again?

This means the app crashed. It should only show this the first time the app is launched after a crash. I'm not sure if there is a way to disable this dialog.

[dougludlow]

@kevinsawicki so the this.app.stop() is crashing the app?

[dougludlow]

This is basically what I'm doing:

var Application = require('spectron').Application
var chai = require('chai')
var chaiAsPromised = require('chai-as-promised')
var path = require('path')

chai.should()
chai.use(chaiAsPromised)

describe('application launch', function () {
  beforeEach(function () {
    this.app = new Application({
      path: '/Applications/MyApp.app/Contents/MacOS/MyApp'
    })
    return this.app.start()
  })

  beforeEach(function () {
    chaiAsPromised.transferPromiseness = this.app.transferPromiseness
  })

  afterEach(function () {
    if (this.app && this.app.isRunning()) {
      return this.app.stop()
    }
  })

  it('opens a window', function () {
    return this.app.client.waitUntilWindowLoaded()
      .getWindowCount().should.eventually.equal(1)
  })
})

@dougludlow if you open the Console.app on Mac, do you see these crashes on the left hand side?

[dougludlow]

I see this:

[kevinsawicki]

@dougludlow Can you expand User Diagnostic Reports and see if it shows any Kno2 crashes there?

[dougludlow]

Ok, yup I do. So it is somehow crashing...

[dougludlow]

Thanks for pointing that out. Must be the way I'm quitting my app from electron. Thanks for your help @kevinsawicki.

[kevinsawicki]

Yeah, it could be an Electron bug so you might want open an issue there depending on what the stack trace looks like.

@dougludlow did you ever figure out the issue? I'm running into a similar issue.
