Tell us what’s happening:

I am trying to create an instance of the headless browser using zombie. I set the site to “http:localhost:3000”, initially I was getting a circular reference error when visiting ‘/’, I solved this by changing the browser.visit(‘/’,done), by browser.visit(‘/’,function(){done()}). However if I log browser.html() I get bind EINVAL 0.0.0.0

Your code so far

const Browser = require('zombie');
Browser.site = 'http://localhost:3000'
const browser = new Browser();

suite('Functional Tests with Zombie.js', function () {
  suiteSetup(function(done){
    return browser.visit('/',function() {
      console.log(browser.html());
      done();
    });
  });
  this.timeout(5000);
  
  suite('Headless browser', function () {
    test('should have a working "site" property', function() {
      assert.isNotNull(browser.site);
    });
  });

  suite('"Famous Italian Explorers" form', function () {
    // #5
    test('Submit the surname "Colombo" in the HTML form', function (done) {
      
      browser.fill('surname','Colombo').then(() => {
        browser.pressButton('submit',() => {
          browser.assert.success();
          browser.assert.text('span#name','Cristoforo');
          browser.assert.text('span#surname','Colombo');
          browser.assert.elements('span#dates',1);
          done();
        });
      });
    });
    // #6
    test('Submit the surname "Vespucci" in the HTML form', function (done) {
      browser.fill('#i1','Vespucci').then(() => {
        browser.pressButton('submit',() => {
          browser.assert.success();
          browser.assert.text('span#name','Amerigo');
          browser.assert.text('span#surname','Vespucci');
          browser.assert.elements('span#dates',1);
          done();
        });
      });
    });
  });
});

Use the IP Browser.site = 'http://0.0.0.0:3000'; as posted on the “Simulate Actions Using a Headless Browser” challenge.

Issue with some background info

I did try to use 0.0.0.0:3000 for the site, but I only get an empty html in that case.

http:localhost:3000 is not a valid URL, you are missing //, i.e. http://localhost:3000

The proper way of using done with browser.visit is as a callback. You should not invoke it.

Not sure why are using trying to log out browser.html() but when I do that I get back the index.html content and doing so doesn’t prevent me from passing any of the tests.

suiteSetup(function(done) {
  return browser.visit('/', () => {
    console.log(browser.html()) // logs index.html content
    done()
  });
});

I tested your code on Replit and is is passing all the headless browser tests for me.
