Protractor jasmine empty test spec timeout issue

Question

I'm receiving very strange test spec behavior when trying to run my jasmine specs with protractor.

I have two empty specs that both should pass, however my first spec passes then all proceeding specs fail. I believe this may have something to do with the version levels, as when I did an update it caused my jasmine test cases to break.

Protractor 3.3.0
Jasmine 2.4.1

Test specs

 it('test spec 1', function () {

 });

 it('test spec 2', function () {

 });

Error: Timeout - Async callback was not invoked within timeout specified by jasmine.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_INTERVAL.

                ('0'+d.getSeconds()).slice(-2)
            ].join('');


        var Jasmine2HtmlReporter = require('protractor-jasmine2-html-reporter');
        jasmine.getEnv().addReporter(
            new Jasmine2HtmlReporter({

        );

Error gist

Are you sure this is happening in this particular test? Could you provide the complete contents of the file and your protractor config? Thanks! — alecxe
@alecxe Yes, I'm certain this is happening in these tests. Its very strange behavior. I should also add that I am using Appium. So it may also be an issue with that framework. I will add the contents of my config shortly. — Errol Green

Updated :

Try to eliminate Jasmine2HtmlReporter.

Try to add :

  describe("long asynchronous specs", function() {
    beforeEach(function(done) {
      done();
    }, 10000);
   // Your code here 

   afterEach(function(done) {
      done();
    }, 10000);
  }

You can also have a look into : Jasmine Asynchronous Support

Or try to add time out here :

 it('test spec 1', function () {

 },1000);

 it('test spec 2', function () {

 },1000);
