Running intern with PhantomJS: window is undefined - phantomjs

Question

I've followed all the steps described here: https://github.com/theintern/intern/wiki/Using-Intern-with-PhantomJS
My intern config is ~ as follows:
define({
proxyPort: 9000,
proxyUrl: 'http://localhost:9000/',
environments: [
{ browserName: 'phantom' }
],
maxConcurrency: 3,
useSauceConnect: false,
webdriver: {
host: 'localhost',
port: 4444
},
reporters: ['runner'],
useLoader: {
'host-node': 'dojo/dojo',
'host-browser': 'node_modules/dojo/dojo.js'
},
loader: {
packages: [
{ name: 'myApp', location: '...' }
],
baseUrl: '...',
paths: {...}
},
suites: [
'test/hello'
],
functionalSuites: [],
excludeInstrumentation: /(^test(\/|\\)|reporters|node_modules)/
});
I run phantomJS with
.\node_modules\.bin\phantomjs --webdriver 4444 --webdriver-loglevel='debug'
and it listens on 4444.
I even disabled Windows Firewall, but still I get
ReferenceError: window is not defined
at ***.js:348:142
at Function.vm.runInThisContext (***\node_modules\intern\node_modules\istanbul\lib\hook.js:163:16)
at ***\node_modules\intern\node_modules\dojo\dojo.js:757:8
at fs.js:266:14
at Object.oncomplete (fs.js:107:15)
as though Intern is running on node, not in Phatom. Phantom's console is also completely silent.
What am I missing? Or is there a way to debug Intern's actions? Thx

Answer 1

OK, I've finally figured this out.
I've been running intern using
.\node_modules\.bin\intern-client config=test/intern
while it should've been
.\node_modules\.bin\intern-runner config=test/intern
Thing is that intern-runner and intern-client are two different applications, one is for running with browsers via WebDriver, the other one for running with Node. It didn't catch my eye even though I was reading and re-reading the docs much more than once. Probably the distinction should be highlighted there.
Hope this helps someone )
