Runner hangs in some cases

[techniq]

I tried using jest-electron-runner on my react-svg-text tests and it appeared to hang as well.

for me too ;( @d4rkr00t do you need more details ?

[d4rkr00t]

@gagarin55 that'd be great

Node: v7.9.0
OS: Linux

The project with configured jest-electron-runner there - https://github.com/gagarin55/emerald-wallet/tree/jest-electron-runner
npm run test command hangs after showing first 2 tests.

Travis CI: https://travis-ci.org/gagarin55/emerald-wallet/builds/291997940

[gagarin55]

Is any hope to get it work ?

[gagarin55]

Even examples hang

Haven't had time to look at that yet.

It's hanging for me too, just says RUNS. Would really like to use this!

is everyone on this thread using xvfb and still getting a hung runner?

@andreineculau thanks a ton for the links! I'm using facebook-atom/jest-electron-runner, not this library, but running xvfb solved the hanging issues I was having!

For anyone looking for example code, can see facebook-atom/jest-electron-runner#47 (comment) for what is basically my config.
