Get the current browser name in Protractor test

Another case of rubber ducking 🙂

The answer was actually quite simple.

in my onPrepare function I added the following function and it works flawlessly.

browser.getCapabilities().then(function (cap) {
  browser.browserName = cap.caps_.browserName;
});

I can get access the name in my test using browser.browserName.
