angular-karma-gwt

Angular-karma-gwt Schematics

Add automatically useful testing packages in an Angular workspace

• jasmine-given : write your test with jasmine in BDD style with Given, When, Then functions
• jasmine-auto-spies : create automatic spies from classes in Jasmine tests
• karma-mocha-reporter : change the cli reporter

1 - Go in the Angular workspace

Go in the Angular workspace if it already exists

Or create a new one :

ng new <my-workspace>

2 - Install the Schematics

ng add angular-karma-gwt

And that's it ! Everything is set up

Or, without the ng add command

npm i -D angular-karma-gwt
ng generate angular-karma-gwt:update-karma-config

---

This schematic makes these steps automatically

⚠️ Warning : This will replace the entire karma.conf.js file (every custom configuration added in the conf could disappear) (see this issue)

1 - install packages

• jasmine-given
• karma-jasmine-given
• @types/jasmine-given
• jasmine-auto-spies
• karma-mocha-reporter
• karma-jasmine-diff-reporter

npm i -D jasmine-given karma-jasmine-given @types/jasmine-given jasmine-auto-spies karma-mocha-reporter karma-jasmine-diff-reporter

2 - Add plugins in karma.conf.js

• require('karma-jasmine-given')
• require('karma-mocha-reporter')
• require('karma-jasmine-diff-reporter')

3 - Add frameworks jasmine-given in karma.conf.js

4 - Change reporters array in karma.conf.js

• reporters: ['jasmine-diff', 'mocha']

5 - Add jasmine-diff-reporter config

{
  jasmineDiffReporter: {
    color: {
      expectedBg: 'bgMagenta',
      expectedWhitespaceBg: 'bgMagenta',
      actualBg: 'bgBlue',
      actualWhitespaceBg: 'bgBlue'
    },
    legacy: true
  }
}

6 - Add mocha-reporter config

{
  mochaReporter: {
    output: 'minimal'
  }
}

7 - Remove kjhtml reporter
