Run angular end-to-end tests in watch mode

Currently, I run ng e2e every time I make a change in my spec files and every time this command rebuilds the entire project ! is there a way to run the tests without rebuilding the entire project, just like ng test does it.

Remove 

devServerTarget

from angular.json e2e section.

This way angular won't run ng serve when running the end to end. You will have to have them running in a separate terminal.

Protractor won't re-run on file change.

Just don't run ng e2e directly. It's very slow because it rebuild the whole project every time.

You can try npx protractor e2e/protractor.conf.js to run protractor directly.

I believe you can do it yourself with a bit of set up by leveraging the powers of Gulp. Just came across this while watching some slides:
