Desired functionality.

Implement 'disableChecks' protractor flag.

I want to use a protractor module for retrying failed e2e tests but use some flags that ng-cli don't pass to protractor, here the issue in protractor-retry repo where this is talked about
https://github.com/yahoo/protractor-retry/issues/6

We don't send any extra flags into protractor really. The only flags we support are the ones in https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/wiki/e2e.

I agree that looks like a pretty useful library, I might have to add it to some of the e2e pipelines I use.

But it's also assuming a that the command that's being ran is protractror, but we're running ng e2e instead. ng e2e has different flags from protractor and does different things.

I agree that allowing the flags to be passed through might fix it, but we can't guarantee flag parity with protractor.

Meanwhile you can also run protractor separately though.

You can set the disableChecks directly in your protractor configuration file.
