angular-cli VS karma

Searches a curated SQLite database of official Angular code examples with emphasis on modern and recently updated features. The examples are maintained in the Angular CLI repository at https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/tree/main/packages/angular/cli/lib/examples. At the time of writing, there is a single @if control flow example available, but we expect the collection to grow significantly for the release of Angular v21.

This project was generated using Angular CLI version 19.0.7.

Shame on me, I didn't know that Node.js can't load modules via HTTP. So I had to find a workaround. Node.js supports hooks for loading modules, and this is already at the release candidate stage. Angular 19 even uses this method to generate the manifest file. Wrote an quick and dirty code which worked. Created an issue, suggested a pull request with POC, but there was no response. What's left? Make your own solution.

There are open PRs for Karma and Jest Experimental Builder to support AOT.

module.exports = async (util, rule, host, injector) => { let list = await util.changeList([ { type: 'copy', source: 'git', from: { url: 'https://github.com/angular/angular-cli.git', match: '/packages/schematics/angular/directive/files', output: '/packages/schematics/angular/directive/files', }, pathTemplate: '@angular-devkit', contentTemplate: '@angular-devkit', pathTemplateSuffix: '.template', templateContext: { name: 'hello', standalone: true, selector: 'hello', 'if-flat': (input) => '' }, to: './hello-directive' }, ]); await util.updateChangeList(list); };

Well, scream though I have, the Angular team desperately needs to Remove NodeJS Dependencies, as it has already fallen behind from all frameworks concerning deployment. I'm still waiting for the response on this... 🦗 🦗 🦗 🦗

Karma is a flexible test runner that allows developers to execute tests across multiple real browsers. It’s commonly paired with frameworks like Jasmine and Mocha to provide a seamless testing environment for React applications. Karma is particularly beneficial for applications where cross-browser compatibility is a priority, as it enables developers to validate functionality on various platforms simultaneously.

To execute unit tests with the Karma test runner, use the following command:

Run ng test to execute the unit tests via Karma.

This is an example for those using Karma:

While the default Angular starter includes unit tests, it makes use of the older and clunky Karma/Jasmine combo for unit testing.

If Protractor is replacing Angular Scenario Runner for E2E testing, does that mean I will still be able to use it with Karma as my E2E testing framework ?
