Clear Local storage data for phantomjs

[Archana Sharma]

I want to run a clear test each time. I tried below js to clear localstorage it is not clearing files

var page = require('webpage').create();

var url = 'http://localhost:8000';

page.open(url, function (status) {

  localStorage.clear();

  phantom.exit();

});

is there any way to do it before each run?

You are in Phantom context there, but I think you need to be in browser
context instead. Does the following code work?

var page = require('webpage').create();
var url = 'http://localhost:8000';
page.open(url, function (status) {

page.evaluate(function(){
localStorage.clear();
});
phantom.exit();
});
