I am getting the following error message for my protractor test scripts. The scripts were running fine until I updated my projects for a few of the scripts. The scripts run and the error is thrown at the end. I have tried browser.waitForAngular(); and browser.sleep() with no success.

add framework: 'jasmine2' to your conf.js file . more info here #1978

If changing the rootElement does not work by itself, try adding framework: 'jasmine2' to exports.config in your Protractor configuration file. I stumbled upon that earlier while trying to figure out the problem. Changing only the rootElement did not work for me.
