Angular 4.0 e2e tests - can't pause protractor

Question

I've created a new project using angular cli and added browser.pause(); command to default spec. However, if I run tests, protractor doesn't stop. Instead I get the following message in console:

Error: Cannot find module '_debugger'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:485:15)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:437:25)
    at Module.require (module.js:513:17)
    at require (internal/module.js:11:18)
    at Object.<anonymous> (C:\Projects\sample\node_modules\protractor\built\debugger
\debuggerCommons.js:1:82)
    at Module._compile (module.js:569:30)
    at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:580:10)
    at Module.load (module.js:503:32)
    at tryModuleLoad (module.js:466:12)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:458:3)

Do I need to install some package or some configuration option is missing or anything else?

UPDATE

运行node --version以查看您已全局安装的节点版本。如果你有8，那么似乎browser.pause（）不适用于版本8.请参阅打开的GitHub问题。
