Answer 1

Updated the .jshintrc to the following which seems to have resolved the problem.
{
"node": true,
"browser": true,
"esnext": true,
"bitwise": false,
"camelcase": false,
"eqeqeq": true,
"immed": true,
"indent": 4,
"latedef": true,
"newcap": true,
"noarg": true,
"quotmark": "single",
"regexp": true,
"undef": true,
"unused": false,
"strict": true,
"trailing": true,
"smarttabs": true,
"globals": {
"jQuery": true,
"angular": true,
"console": true,
"AppConfig": true,
"$": true,
"_": true,
"moment": true,
"module": true,
"inject": true,
"browser": true,
"element": true,
"describe": true,
"before": true,
"beforeEach": true,
"after": true,
"afterEach": true,
"expect": true,
"it": true,
"by": true,
"chai": true
}
}
Also created a .jshintrc-spec
{
"extends": ".jshintrc",
"globals": {
"describe": true,
"it": true,
"before": true,
"beforeEach": true,
"after": true,
"afterEach": true,
"chai": true,
"inject" : true
}
}

Answer 2

A better (and commonly used) way to resolve this is to use double underscores __ while requiring either underscore or the lodash library. No need to make a change to the jshintrc file just for this.
