OperaDriver does not support executing asynchronous javascript

[jfroom]

This may not be a protractor issue, but wanted to list some findings for anyone else with same issues with sauce.

I get failed job from an exception thrown when I run the basic protractor example:

./bin/protractor ./example/conf.js 

The config is set with my sauce id/key and with opera win7/linux capabilities. The same tests pass with chrome and same operating systems. I've got protractor 0.12.0.

I've made the test results public here:

This is the exception being thrown:

Indeed, OperaDriver does not support executing asynchronous javascript in the browser:

http://grepcode.com/file/repo1.maven.org/maven2/com.opera/operadriver/0.14/com/opera/core/systems/OperaDriver.java#891

That's a bummer - Protractor relies on that ability pretty hard. I submitted a feature request with OperaDriver: operasoftware/operaprestodriver#97

Closing as Opera is not one of our supported browsers, and operadriver shows no signs of adding support.
