Unrecognised test

Hello, there!

I use latest versions of webdriverio and wdio-mocha-framework and recently I started to get a nasty error:

/Users/sullenor/Documents/repo/yharnam/node_modules/webdriverio/build/lib/utils/ReporterStats.js:269
                throw Error('Unrecognised test [' + title + '] for suite [' + runner.parent + ']');
                ^

Error: Unrecognised test [XXX] for suite [YYY]

    at ChildProcess.emit (events.js:185:7)

The error itself occurs in the before hook and wdio tries to get test stats for the suite, which doesn’t exist in the suiteStats.tests object.

I checked manually and looks like changing const title = runner.currentTest || runner.title to const title = runner.title || runner.currentTest helps here (https://github.com/webdriverio/webdriverio/blob/master/lib/utils/ReporterStats.js#L165), but I am not sure, that it’s a proper solution.

I wonder if you can check this?

has anyone managed to patch the ReporterStats.js file to fix this temporarily?

I’m still seeing this when, just like #2494, an error occurs in a test hook.

describe('things', function() {
  beforeEach(function() {
    throw new Error('failure');
  });

  it('should pass', function() {
    // noop
  });
});

exports.config = {
  specs: [
    './test/**/*.js'
  ],
  maxInstances: 1,
  capabilities: [{
    browserName: 'chrome',
    name: 'test failure'
  }],
  sync: true,
  logLevel: 'error',
  coloredLogs: true,
  deprecationWarnings: true,
  bail: 0,
  waitforTimeout: 10000,
  connectionRetryTimeout: 90000,
  connectionRetryCount: 3,
  services: ['selenium-standalone'],
  framework: 'mocha',
  mochaOpts: {
    ui: 'bdd'
  }
};

$ npx wdio
