webdriverIO - Unhandled promise rejection: NoSuchSessionError: invalid session id

I'm learning UI testing with Jasmine & WebdriverIO. I use it with NodeJS. I have the next test code:

    const projectsPage = require('../../lib/pages/projects.page');
    const by = require('selenium-webdriver').By;
    
    describe('Projects page', () => {
        it('Search google', async () => {
            await projectsPage.navigateTo();
                driver.getTitle().then(function(title) {
                        expect(title).toBe('Google');
                });
            driver.findElement(by.name('q')).sendKeys('test');
        })
    });

When I run it, I receive the error:

Unhandled promise rejection: NoSuchSessionError: invalid session id
      (Driver info: chromedriver=2.46.628411 (3324f4c8be9ff2f70a05a30ebc72ffb013e1a71e),platform=Mac OS X 10.14.5 x86_64)

But the code below performs successfully:

describe('Projects page', () => {
   it('Search google', async () => {
       await projectsPage.navigateTo();
       driver.getTitle().then(function(title) {
           expect(title).toBe('Google');
       });
       driver.findElement(by.name('q'))
   })
});

Where I was wrong?
