don't know why saucelabs can't launch safari 10 on macOS 10.12, I will ask for solution in saucelabs site.

I am still asking in saucelabs forum, and I just modified the settings in another PR, #896

And saucelabs just reply current safari 10 on macOS 10.12 only support selenium 2.48.

We call setInterval() in our angular 4 application. Until zone.js 0.8.17 this returned us a ZoneTask with a runCount attribute, which we used in further code. Do I understand it right that this is not possible anymore following this change (as the timerId is now returned from 0.8.18)?

@tkohr , yes, from 0.8.18, setTimeout will return original timerId instead of ZoneTask. Because we think we should not break the standard APIs, could you describe your use case why you need the zoneTask.runCount?

@JiaLiPassion , our use case is the following: We call REST API A every 20 seconds with setInterval and API B on every 20th call of A using zoneTask.runCount. This counter was convient to us but can be replaced by a counter we generate, of course. If setInterval will continue to return the id in future versions of zone.js we will adapt our code accordingly. Will this be the case?

@tkohr , yeah, I see, I believe the setInterval will return id just like the standard API does, so please change your application code.
