Codeceptjs: Error: Could not load plugin wdio from module './plugin/wdio': Cannot read property 'outputDir' of undefined

[arclak]

I get this error when I try to run the case using command:
npx codeceptjs run --steps

Error:
Could not load plugin wdio from module './plugin/wdio':
Cannot read property 'outputDir' of undefined

Here is the package.json:
{
"name": "example",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "",
"main": "index.js",
"scripts": {
"test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
},
"keywords": [],
"author": "",
"license": "ISC",
"devDependencies": {
"@wdio/cli": "^6.0.13",
"@wdio/selenium-standalone-service": "^6.0.12",
"codeceptjs": "^2.6.0",
"webdriver": "^6.0.13"
},
"dependencies": {
"webdriverio": "^6.0.13"
}
}
Looking for some solution at the earliest. Thanks.

That’s something changed in how the wdio service is called. We should look into the wdio service plugin.

[arclak]

What exactly do I have to check? What all information should I be providing to resolve this?

[PeterNgTr]

You can check the wdio service of codeceptjs and wdio selenium service and check how the new arguments are passed to start the service.

I am new to this and just started using it for POC. It will be great if you can let me know how to check it.

I have the same problem in Webdriverio v6.

I mean... everybody

Additionally. CodeceptJS reports, that I use Webdriverio v5, but I have already updated it.

@pablopaul, it didn't help

Checked everything twice, still same error. I have the latest version of everything, reinstalled it 3 times

don't know what is wrong with @codeceptjs/configure. may be its referering to old wdio library.

We're having the same issue here. From what I'm seeing, codeceptjs is requiring "@codeceptjs/configure": "^0.4.1" however, with npm sementic that will not update configure to the latest version (https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v6/using-npm/semver#caret-ranges-123-025-004)

version 0.4.1 of configure still uses webdriverio v5
lastest version 0.6.0 has been updated to use webdriverio v6

This issue should be be reopened!
