Following the upgrade from Angular JS 1.4.x to Angular 2, encountering issues running Selenium tests through grunt-protractor-runner on Firefox. Once AngularJS is loaded, an unexpected error pops up:
D:\...\node_modules\grunt-protractor-runner\node_modules\protractor\node_modules\selenium-webdriver\lib\atoms\error.js:108
var template = new Error(this.message);

Chrome and Internet Explorer are unaffected.
This problem arises with the following components:
- Firefox versions 38 and 42
- grunt-protractor-runner 2.1.0 and 3.0.0 (utilizing selenium-server-standalone-2.48.2.jar)
- protractor 2.5.1 and 3.0.0
The relevant node modules specified in package.json:
{
"name": "...",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "",
"main": "Gruntfile.js",
"dependencies": {
"jasmine-reporters": "^2.0.7",
