HTTP request callback function inside reporter not called

1. Newman Version (can be found via newman -v): 4.5.5
2. OS details (type, version, and architecture): macOS
3. Are you using Newman as a library, or via the CLI? CLI

I am trying to use the node request library from within a Newman reporter. Below is a sample code:

    newman.on('beforeDone', () => {
      console.log('before');

      var request = require('request');
      request('http://httpbin.org/get', function (error, response, body) {
        console.log('error:', error); // Print the error if one occurred
        console.log('statusCode:', response && response.statusCode); // Print the response status code if a response was received
        console.log('body:', body); // Print the HTML for the Google homepage.
      });

      console.log('after');
    });

Maybe I am missing something, but the console.log statements inside the callback function are not called. Only before and after is printed.

Do you have any idea why?

@codenirvana I have managed to recreate this problem in a more stable environment:

https://gitlab.com/user-questions/newman-issues-2148

I have two parallel jobs, using the same code, one running a collection with tests that pass and the other one running a collection with tests that fail.

Passing output: https://gitlab.com/user-questions/newman-issues-2148/-/jobs/323512933 Failing output: https://gitlab.com/user-questions/newman-issues-2148/-/jobs/323512932

Only when the collection test pass, will the callback be executed.

@codenirvana Is there any update on this issue? I’m also faced issue described in https://github.com/postmanlabs/newman/issues/2148#issuecomment-543075798

I’m writing new reporter for quite new TMS and this looks like a very unexpected behaviour. I also have lots of async request, which are correctly served when all tests are passed and not - when something is failed.
