Protractor is an Open Source, and  built by a team in Google on top of WebDriverJS with existing technologies such as Selenium, Node.js and Jasmine which makes writing tests a breeze. It’s also a replacement for the existing AngularJS E2E testing framework called “Angular Scenario Runner”.

Why Protractor?

Protractor is a wrapper around Selenium WebDriverJS and Selenium Server.It has new locator strategies and functions specifically for Angular apps. Automatic waiting, can execute the next step in you test the moment the webpage finishes pending tasks. One Can take the advantage of the Selenium grid to run multiple browser at once.We Can run test on both real and headless browsers.

– Easily install and setup

– Easily readable jasmine framework

– Support Data Driven test

– Include all advantages of Selenium WebDriver

– Auto-Synchronization

–  Support parallel testing through multiple browsers

–  Excellent speed

Some not so good points of Protractor::It is basically a UI driven testing tool, provide only front-end testing and there is no any detailed test report, other than test log, it needs more time to script and is more sensitive and Zero Tolerance.

Before you decide which platform is best suited to you, please analyze your business and these two ::

Setting Up / Usability

If you are a WordPress user and want to add an ecommerce part to your site, you can go for the plugin WooCommerce. It is an extension to WordPress which is easy to use and perfectly allows you to customize your site.Even Magento has a full installation wizard, and it’s interface is really easy to use.

Features

Both Magento and WooCommerce provide you these basic features. You can cross-sell or up-sale products, compare products, add discount codes, add an advanced filter for navigation, add multiple channels to your store with Magento.

WooCommerce is a simple way to start out. You can rate products, feature On Sale items or best sellers through available widgets but for more complex features you’ll require a plugin. As WooCommerce is an extension of WordPress it can work with a list of other WordPress plugins.

Cost to Install

Both the platforms are open source and are available for free to download and customize. But once your business grows up to the next level, WooCommerce can be easily expanded at lower expense and the same time. Most of the WordPress premium templates are affordable. Whereas, though Magento’s Community version is free, it’s Enterprise edition is very expensive.

Hosting

Magento being a powerful platform is filled with highly complex structure and numerous  features, requires much more disk space and is heavy on server load. Whereas, hosting requirements for WooCommerce are limited as it is very light on server load.

Themes and Functionalities

There are thousands of themes available which are responsive in both the ecommerce platforms which you can simply download to import to your site.

Magento is designed solely for the ecommerce purpose. And, WooCommerce being part of WordPress, allows to incorporate any kind of payment system on any WordPress based website.

Search Engine Friendly

Magento, being heavy in nature may take time to load pages. WooCommerce would not let user to wait for longer time as it is light weight. So, you can say WooCommerce is SEO friendly on the basis of page loading time.

It has one HTML file (index.html) and Two Type Script files in app directory (app.component.ts, main.ts). Angular2 allows templates to be expanded on both client  and on a server, which is important to being able to optimize the initial request  and also important for reusing the same UI components or users with JavaScript enabled and users with JavaScript disabled. In addition to this, speed and efficiency has been a huge focus of Angular2. Angular2 isolates application components from each other, thereby making them more reusable and lessening the likelihood of bugs, and Angular2 has strong backing by Google. Angular 2 follows a more traditional MVC flavored pattern where models and views talk to each other both ways. Flux uses its own unique approach of only allowing data between objects to flow in one direction. An alternative to Angular2 that you may also consider is Polymer which, is also backed by Google and also provides isolated application components; Angular2 is about making a mature and widely used product efficient and maintainable. Angular 2 turns your templates into code that’s highly optimized for today’s JavaScript virtual machines, giving you all the benefits of hand-written code with the productivity of a framework.

Few notable differences between Angular JS & Angular 2 follows::

• The most important point here is, Angular 2 is not the upgrade of angular 1. Angular 2 is completely rewritten.
• Angular 2 is using Typescript which is super set of javascript
• Angular 1.x was not built with mobile support in mind, where Angular 2 is mobile oriented.
• Angular 1 core concept was $scope, and you will not find $scope in angular 2.0. Angular 2 is using zone.js to detect changes.
• Angular 1.x controllers are gone. We can say that controllers are replaced with “Components” in Angular 2.
• If you compare the file size, angular 2 is 20kb less than angular 1 which helps in decreasing the load time for apps.

Our developers can help you creating your application development with this amazing framework.
