Feature request: single e2e test run support

Current behavior

Generated apps can't run a single e2e spec from the commandline too easily.

Expected behavior

You can run a single spec without hacking protractor conf manually

Is there any interest in supporting this?

Since the tests are written in jasmine you can always prefix the test or test suite by f (ie fdescribe or fit), or from the CLI you can use the --specs option it seems: angular/protractor#164

Using angular-cli e2e command, it seems you can only specify a --suite and not a single test: https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/wiki/e2e

well the way I've been doing it is that I keep a protractor-single.conf, a protractor.conf, and a protractor-common.conf - it's not pretty, but it avoids the risk of someone accidentally missing a PR with "fdescribe" or something similar on it.

I've been keeping protractor-single in .gitignore, but I think nowadays it can be done with a commandline parameter or an environment variable instead of manually hacking the specs in -single.conf.

But ok if you think it's yagni, we can close this ;).
