Webdriver.io Webpack Electron integration throws Failed to compile -

i want have nice electron vue.js interface running , presenting webdriver.io tests.

my app setup using https://github.com/simulatedgreg/electron-vue

i have homepage-test.js

'use strict';  const webdriverio = require('webdriverio'); const options = {   host: 'localhost', // use localhost chrome driver server   port: 9515,        // "9515" port opened chrome driver.   desiredcapabilities: {     browsername: 'chrome',     chromeoptions: {       binary: '/users/myuser/atom/my-tester/node_modules/electron/dist/electron.app', // path electron binary.       args: [/* cli arguments */]           // optional, perhaps 'app=' + /path/to/your/app/     }   } }; const client = webdriverio.remote(options);  exports.homepage = () => {   client.init(); } 

i running ./node_modules/.bin/chromedriver --url-base=wd/hub --port=9515

and connecting homepage-test.js in tester.vue import homepage '../../../../lib/homepage-test';

the problem receive error:

failed compile.  ./~/webdriverio/build/lib/helpers/getimplementedcommands.js 59:44-90 critical dependency: request of dependency expression 

with these in chrome console:

./~/webdriverio/build/lib/helpers/getimplementedcommands.js 59:44-90 critical dependency: request of dependency expression  ./~/webdriverio/build/lib/utils/configparser.js 138:58-75 critical dependency: request of dependency expression  ./~/ajv/lib/async.js 96:20-33 critical dependency: request of dependency expression  ./~/ajv/lib/async.js 119:15-28 critical dependency: request of dependency expression  ./~/ajv/lib/compile/index.js 13:21-34 critical dependency: request of dependency expression 

i assuming problem between integration of webpack, electron , webdriver.io.

i tried use documentation without success: https://github.com/electron/electron/blob/master/docs/tutorial/using-selenium-and-webdriver.md
