Fatal error: Cannot read property 'ele' of null about karma-junit-reporter

+1. I have the same issue

[swayf]

hm.. but seems the issue is not here..
@ianwremmel do you use karma 0.12 with karma-ievms?

[ianwremmel]

Nope, not familiar with karma-ievms.

Here's the relevant portion of package.json:

    "karma": "~0.12.28",
    "karma-browserify": "~3.0.1",
    "karma-chrome-launcher": "~0.1.7",
    "karma-coverage": "~0.2.7",
    "karma-firefox-launcher": "~0.1.3",
    "karma-junit-reporter": "~0.2.2",
    "karma-mocha": "~0.1.10",
    "karma-mocha-reporter": "~0.3.1",
    "karma-safari-launcher": "~0.1.1",
    "karma-sauce-launcher": "~0.2.10",

As I said, I've looked at karma-junit-reporter to try to figure out what's going on and nothing seems obvious. Since it happens intermittently, I have to assume it's a race condition somewhere where one of the events is firing before/after the the xml file has been opened/closed.

I know I've seen the problem when using karma-sauce-launcher and I'm pretty sure I've seen it using the karma-chrome-launcher. In the all of the cases I've seen it, I've been using the mocha reporter and I think I've been using the coverage reporter for all of them.

I have noticed that it only occurs when I run it as an npm task. If I execute ./node_modules/.bin/karma start karma.js from the command line the error does not occur. For now I have my pre-commit hook run it as a make command.

This just flaked for us as well on jenkins. Doesn't happen consistently.

Missing error handler on `socket`.

@TheSavior if it helps I noticed I only have issues when I node version 0.10.32. When I use version 0.11.14 I have no issues.

[TheSavior]

Hmm. We are on 0.12.0

[janblok]

We are seeing this error if we use non ascii text in karma test:

it("interpoleer drglpt zonder coordinaten en met één verbonden drglpt", function() {
    //fails
}

if we change to:

it("interpoleer drglpt zonder coordinaten en met 1 verbonden drglpt", function() {
    //succeeds
}

it all works, is there an encoding problem somewhere?

I have this issue and it turn out I have many phantomjs instance running in background. killall phantomjs fixed it
