We are currently using and enhancing testx. This does use the advantage of Excel and protractor. It's open source and available on github : https://github.com/greyarch/testx

A library for executing MS Excel based, keyword driven tests with Protractor.

Authoring JSON in Excel does not sound like a productivity booster. That's painful and defeats the purpose of using Excel because of its familiarity.

I think we underestimate the pervasive use of Excel in Fortune enterprise environment. I've seen people use Excel for the most ridiculous things. Excel is religion for some people.

This would be fantastic for automatic canned-testing that is run on regular basis, akin to quick diagnostic.
