E2E Testing Angular with Karma - ng-scenario 'Module is not defined' - node.js

Question

I've been trying to run some e2e tests with Karma.
It's not working for me at all.
Right now I'm getting the following error:
Firefox 28.0.0 (Windows 7) ERROR
ReferenceError: module is not defined
at C:/MYPATH/Test/node_modules/karma-ng-scenario/lib/ind
ex.js:12
Firefox 28.0.0 (Windows 7) ERROR
ReferenceError: browser is not defined
at C:/MYPATH/Test/e2e/scenarios.js:12
My config file looks like this:
module.exports = function(config){
config.set({
basePath : './',
frameworks: ['ng-scenario'],
files : [
'./node_modules/karma-ng-scenario/lib/*.js',
'./e2e/*.js'
],
autoWatch : true,
singleRun : true,
browsers : ['Firefox'],
plugins : [
'karma-ng-scenario',
'karma-chrome-launcher',
'karma-firefox-launcher'
],
junitReporter : {
outputFile: 'test_out/unit.xml',
suite: 'unit'
},
urlRoot : '/__karma/',
proxies : {
'/public/' : 'http://localhost:8080'
}
});
};
My scenarios file just tests to see if the base path redirects.
I've already done a lot of messing with npm to get to this point, most recently "npm install karma-ng-scenario --save-dev" but no luck unfortunately.

Answer 1

In files[] specify path to angular.js as a very first, then any other angular modules you use (angular-mocks.js, angular-resource.js, angular-cookies.js), then any library you use, then your own code.

Answer 2

In files:[...] array you have to specify all the files that contain the actual code to which you are writing tests, if your module is using other modules, then you should add files of all the modules on which your module depends.
suppose you are testing 'someModule' module you have to include the 'someModule' controllers, views, services, directives and other modules if your module depends on them
Note: Assuming your files are in their specific directories
files: [
... //angularjs, angular-mocks, karma, protractor and other files you need
...
'scripts/someModule/controllers/*.js',
'scripts/someModule/services/*.js',
'scripts/someModule/directives/*.js',
'views/someModule/*.html'
]
or simply
files: [
... //angularjs, angular-mocks, karma, protractor and other files you need
...
'scripts/someModule/**/*.js',
'views/someModule/*.html'
]
And make sure to install and include all the testing libraries you depend on (i.e, angularjs, angular-mocks, protrator, karma etc) in the files array

So the configuration I finally got my E2E tests to work with was this:
// Karma configuration
// Generated on Fri Apr 11 2014 02:35:20 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)
module.exports = function(config) {
config.set({
// base path, that will be used to resolve files and exclude
basePath: '..',
// frameworks to use
frameworks: ['jasmine'],
// list of files / patterns to load in the browser
files: [
ANGULAR_SCENARIO,
ANGULAR_SCENARIO_ADAPTER,
'test/e2e/*.js',
],
// list of files to exclude
exclude: [
],
// test results reporter to use
// possible values: 'dots', 'progress', 'junit', 'growl', 'coverage'
reporters: ['progress'],
// web server port
port: 9876,
// enable / disable colors in the output (reporters and logs)
colors: true,
// level of logging
// possible values: config.LOG_DISABLE || config.LOG_ERROR || config.LOG_WARN || config.LOG_INFO || config.LOG_DEBUG
logLevel: config.LOG_INFO,
// enable / disable watching file and executing tests whenever any file changes
autoWatch: true,
// Start these browsers, currently available:
// - Chrome
// - ChromeCanary
// - Firefox
// - Opera (has to be installed with `npm install karma-opera-launcher`)
// - Safari (only Mac; has to be installed with `npm install karma-safari-launcher`)
// - PhantomJS
// - IE (only Windows; has to be installed with `npm install karma-ie-launcher`)
//browsers: ['PhantomJS', 'Firefox', 'Chrome'],
browsers: ['Firefox', 'Chrome'],
// If browser does not capture in given timeout [ms], kill it
captureTimeout: 60000,
// Continuous Integration mode
// if true, it capture browsers, run tests and exit
singleRun: false,
proxies : {
"/": "http://localhost:8080"
},
urlRoot : "/__karma/"
});
};
It seems that a better solution for running end to end tests is to use protractor. NG-SCENARIO is depreciated and will cause warnings but this should still run. https://github.com/angular/protractor
