Did this solve the problem ????

I get this error when phantomjs cannot be found. Confirm you have phantomjs-prebuilt in your node_modules. Phantomjs is also platform dependant so if you are building on windows and then trying to run on mac or something phantomjs will not work and you will get this error. You can download specific version of phantomjs based on an OS flag. https://www.npmjs.com/package/phantomjs-prebuilt

See section on Cross-Platform Repositories.

Specify the phantomJS path
phantomPath: './node_modules/phantomjs-prebuilt/bin/phantomjs',

worked for me

Do this In case you are running the app inside docker alpine image, because phantomjs-prebuilt doesn't work on alpine
