copied!<p>I ran into this issue today - you just need to load the API asynchronously. This isn't so much a workaround as a documented alternative, which you can read up on here:</p> <p><a href="https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/tutorial#asynch" rel="nofollow">https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/tutorial#asynch</a></p> <p>Essentially you just need to change any code like this:</p> <pre><code><script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_API_KEY&sensor=SET_TO_TRUE_OR_FALSE" type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> function initialize() { var map = new google.maps.Map(/* ... */); } window.onload = initialize(); </script> </code></pre> <p>To this (lifted almost entirely from the link above):</p> <pre><code><script type="text/javascript"> function initialize() { var map = new google.maps.Map(/* ... */); } function loadScript() { var script = document.createElement("script"); script.type = "text/javascript"; script.src = "http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_API_KEY&sensor=TRUE_OR_FALSE&callback=initialize"; document.body.appendChild(script); } window.onload = loadScript; </script> </code></pre> <p>The key thing to note here is that you have to pass a <strong>callback</strong> parameter to the script.src tag (in this example we provide <strong>initialize</strong>, but it can be whatever you want) - this will let google fire your initialisation code when the dynamically injected maps script tag has finished loading.</p> <p>This second mechanism fixes my Zombie tests.</p>
