Webpack-dev-server: How to manually shut down server?

[binarykitchen]

In my gulp task I run the webpack dev server before running any jasmine based end-to-end tests.

But there is no function to shut down the webpack dev server once the tests have ended. How can I do that?

(And by the way, how can I disable watching for this scenario? Such an option seems to be missing)

server.close()

thanks but sorry, i picked something else ...

@binarykitchen could you please share your solution?
I need to stop the server (and selenium) from my npm script. So using server.close()will not work for me either.

a shutdown port or shutdown via REST would be helpful
