https://github.com/karma-runner/karma fails on browserstack

[johnjbarton]

The browserstack-based tests for karma project stopped working:
https://travis-ci.org/karma-runner/karma/jobs/577415432

Basically none of the browsers can be reached, eg:

27 08 2019 20:23:04.986:WARN [launcher.browserstack]: ie 11.0 (Windows 10) has not captured in 50000 ms, killing.
27 08 2019 20:23:06.223:WARN [launcher.browserstack]: chrome (Windows 10) has not captured in 50000 ms, killing.
27 08 2019 20:23:08.611:WARN [launcher.browserstack]: safari 9.0 (OS X El Capitan) has not captured in 50000 ms, killing.

Any suggestions?

Probably this issue #152

Also seeing this with ^1.4.0 so I'm not sure it is #152

Basically browserstack does not work for us. Should we look for an alternative?

hi @johnjbarton,

Setting karma config timeout values in their Karma project for browser disconnects / timeouts have helped other users and recommended by BrowserStack support here: #61

As mentioned in the link, please check if the below values help in your Karma testing.
captureTimeout: 3e5, browserDisconnectTolerance: 3, browserDisconnectTimeout: 3e5, browserSocketTimeout: 1.2e5, browserNoActivityTimeout: 3e5,

Thanks,
Samiran
