Webdriverio: "Cannot read property 'log' of undefined" for crashes

[graingert]

In some errors I often get "Cannot read property 'log' of undefined"

I'm getting this also in a lot of the errors. Coming from line 287 of webdriverio.js:
this.logger.log('\tSaved screenshot: ' + fileName);

Already working on fixing this :wink:

[eyalzek]

Can you please explain how to fix this manually in the meantime? It causes too many crashes in my tests..

@eyalzek I monkey-fixed this locally by putting an if (this.logger) around the this.logger.log call. There might be a better way. 🐵
