Could someone please help with this? I do not understand why this is happening since when I do npm info loadash.merge, the module version is clearly present. I have also tried to see what my $NODE_PATH contains (as some answers on stackoverflow suggest), and it seems to be pointing towards the correct path of node, or at least the path where nvm installed node:
/home/username/.nvm/versions/node/v10.15.1/bin/node
Additionally, I am not sure about this particular warning:
npm WARN engine webdriverio#5.4.9: wanted: {"node":">= 4.8.5"} (current: {"node":"v0.10.15","npm":"1.3.5"}) My node version is 10.15.1 and not 0.10.15

I think you're missing the css-value library based on this part of the stack trace:
npm ERR! Error: No compatible version found: css-value#'^0.0.1'
Try to resolve this by doing: npm i css-value
Additionally, your stack trace is complaining about using an outdated version of Node. I would consider updating node since your version is very old:
npm WARN engine webdriverio#5.4.9: wanted: {"node":">= 4.8.5"} (current: {"node":"v0.10.15","npm":"1.3.5"})

Your issue is probably with using sudo in the npm install. You can check this out by using sudo node -v and it will probably give you a different node version than your nvm installed one, this would indicate that node in your server is broken in some places due some previous installation. To circumvent it I suggest the following that has worked for me for similar issues.
sudo su
nvm alias default 10.15.1
npm cache clean --force
npm install webdriverio
If it still gives syntax errors due to dependencies, use
npm install webdriverio --unsafe-perm

2.Click the given "github" link , from there you can download as ZIP file.
3.Extract it and use in your project

Does anybody know the issue? I just installed nodejs and npm so I have no idea why this would happen.

I also hit into this error. It might be due to my network.
I work out as:
npm --strict-ssl false install <pkg>
This option sets validation on nodejs's CA as optional. I think it has the same effect as Sandile's answer.
I think an issue just like this one has already been answered to some degree here: NPM installation error.
But, to save you some time, try npm config set registry http://registry.npmjs.org/
I was having the same kind of problem with the same version of node and npm.
npm ERR! node -v v0.6.12
npm ERR! npm -v 1.1.4
These are the versions that you get with ubuntu using apt-get.
To fix the problem, I removed the old versions:
sudo apt-get remove nodejs
This removes node and npm.
Then installed the latest:
mkdir ~/node-latest-install
cd ~/node-latest-install
curl http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz | tar xz --strip-components=1
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make
sudo make install
sudo chmod -R a+rx /usr/local/lib/node_modules
You can remove the install directory when you're done with it.
I got the script that I based this on from:
https://gist.github.com/isaacs/579814 which is linked to from: http://www.joyent.com/blog/installing-node-and-npm/
The article is a little out of date. For instance, npm comes with node now.

Any solution?
The npmjs.org web site has been having reliability problems both last week and today. As Jeremy commented, this is probably just npm being unable to get the express package downloaded correctly. Wait a while for them to get it up and running again then retry.
Sounds like an npm issue, try a mirror:
npm [command] --registry http://npm.nodejs.org.au:5984/registry/_design/app/_rewrite

anybody ran into this problem ?
thanks in advance for help.
Let me guess, is it happening on a Win7 machine 64 bits?
I got the same error and it was already reported on testacular github
The only workaround I found was installing node.js 32 bits instead of 64 bits version.
I encourage you to post another comment on their github so maybe it will be reconsidered
The problem was in the versions as the error log suggests. On Ubuntu 12.10 install NodeJS with sudo apt-get install nodejs will result in installing nodejs 0.6, but you need nodejs version 0.8 to install testacular so I followed this tutorial to install nodejs 0.8

How to install Socket.IO>=0.7.8 with npm on Ubuntu 8.04?

I searched for a long time, but haven't found the right answer yet.
I'm not the only one who has/had problems installing Socket.IO >0.7.7 but other solutions didn't work for me.
A possible problem could be an old version of GNU tar (version is 1.19) but I donĀ“t know how to upgrade it or if it is possible at all.
An Update to a newer version of Ubuntu is not possible for me at this time.
If there is no way to update tar or something similar: Can I install Socket.IO without npm?
Here is the Output of "npm install socket.io":
