Karma running old test file [AngularJS, Karma, Jasmine, PhantomJS] - angularjs

I'm not sure why, but when I run a new Karma test for my AngularJS app I get output from a previous version of my test file. I'm new to Karma testing so I'm sure I'm missing something somewhere.
PhantomJS 2.1.1 (Windows 7 0.0.0) Calendar Constructor instantiates a calendar with a year, month, and options FAILED
(This is what I had previously set as output for the this test)
I have no idea how I'm getting the above output when my test file looks like this.
test.js
'use strict';
describe('holidays', function () {
var scope, controller;
beforeEach(function(){
module('holiday');
});
describe('HolidaysController', function(){
beforeEach(inject(function($rootScope, $controller){
scope = $rootScope;
controller = $controller('HolidaysController', {
'vm': scope
});
}));
it('should work', function(){
expect(vm.tooltips).toBe(false);
});
});
});
Angular version: 1.4.0
Karma version: 0.13.22
PhantomJS version:
2.1.1

I figured it out, I had another terminal open that I had previously ran karma in. After closing both terminals and reopening one the problem was fixed.

Unit Testing a Controller Ionic Framework Karma

I've been beating my head against the wall trying to figure out why these tests aren't working using Karma and Jasmine to test an Ionic Controller. I'm new to ionic, karma unit testing, angularjs, and just about everything else here. Can anyone identify the reason these tests are failing?
Here's my controller:
angular.module('starter.controllers')
.controller('TemplateCtrl', function($scope) {
$scope.text = 'Hello Template';
});
Here's my test:
describe('Template Controller', function(){
var scope;
beforeEach(module('starter.controllers'));
beforeEach(inject(function($rootScope, $controller) {
scope = $rootScope.$new();
$controller('TemplateCtrl', {$scope: scope});
}));
// tests start here
it('should have scope defined', function() {
expect(scope).toBeDefined();
});
it('should have text set to Hello Template', function(){
expect(scope.text).toEqual('Hello Template');
});
});
Test results:
PhantomJS 2.1.1 (Linux 0.0.0) Template Controller should have scope defined FAILED
Expected undefined to be defined.
PhantomJS 2.1.1 (Linux 0.0.0) Template Controller should have text set to Hello Template FAILED
TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'scope.text') in controller-tests/template.tests.js (line 23)
Thank you for your time.
Phil Identified the problem, without me even posting my karma config file:
Does Karma include the files that define your starter.controllers
module as well as the TemplateCtrl controller?
Simply adding the path to the karma config file fixed my issue.
Thank you Phil!

Testing AngularJS using Jasmine

I'm trying to test my angular project and keep falling at the first hurdle. By just instantiating my module without even testing anything karma is throwing an error.
If I do include an it statement karma gives me an error saying 'Error: [$injector:modulerr]'. I'm using ngRoute in my project and I'm wondering if that has anything to do with it.
Here's my code, any suggestions on what could be wrong would be much appreciated.
angular.module('MyApp', ['ngRoute'])
.controller('HomeCtrl', ['loadArtists', function(loadArtists){
var self = this;
self.homeArtistsArray = [];
self.homeArtistsArray = loadArtists;
}])
-
describe('Practice', function(){
beforeEach(module('MyApp'));
var ctrl;
beforeEach(inject(function($controller){
ctrl = $controller('HomeCtrl');
}))
it('should do nothing',function(){
})
});
-
files: [
'jquery-1.11.3.min.js',
'angular.js',
'angular-mocks.js',
'js/app.js',
'js/appControllers.js',
'js/appFactory.js',
'js/testFile.js'
],
If ngRoute is the problem could you suggest somewhere to download it from.
You need to add angular-route.js to your karma configuration.
BTW, when debugging, you should use the not-minified angular.js file, so you get a full debug message with the error (here, modulerr).

Jasmine Angular http testing

I'm trying to test a REST API wrapped in an AngularJS service using Jasmine async testing. I know, I should be, and am, running tests on the API on the server, and using a mock $httpBackend to test the service.
but when i test this code :
'use strict';
describe('controllers: SiteCtrl', function() {
var scope, httpBackend, http, controller;
var zipcode = "94305";
beforeEach(module('ngMockE2E'));
beforeEach(module('ironridge'));
beforeEach(inject(function($rootScope, $controller, $httpBackend, $http) {
scope = $rootScope.$new();
httpBackend = $httpBackend;
controller = $controller;
http = $http;
// httpBackend.w hen('http://api.zippopotam.us/us/' + zipcode).respond({});
$controller('SiteCtrl', {
$scope: scope,
$http: $http
});
}));
it('should define more than 5 awesome things',function (){
expect(scope.nav.radio).toMatch('site');
});
it("should match a correct zip code", function() {
httpBackend.expectGET('http://api.zippopotam.us/us/' + zipcode).responde(200);
http.get('http://api.zippopotam.us/us/' + zipcode).
success(function(data) {
console.log(data);
}).
error(function(status) {
console.log(status);
});
httpBackend.flush();
});
});
but i get an error when running test

Thanks for help :D
You cannot do E2E tests with httpBackend.
First option, to forfit E2E tests, and make tests for $httpBackend, without e2e tests and run it from grunt running grunt test. Which would be unit tests.
Second option, which you can mix with first is to create separate file for E2E tests, also in Jasmine syntax and run it independly with protractor.
In edited code, use flush before calling handle.success.
Flushing means that get operation goes into action.
Instead of:
$http.get('http://api.zippopotam.us/us/' + zipcode).
then(handler.success,handler.error);
httpBackend.flush();
Write:
var prom = $http.get('http://api.zippopotam.us/us/' + zipcode);
httpBackend.flush();
prom.then(handler.success,handler.error);
It's possible that handler.success is called before flush is made.

Why am I getting an exception when trying to debug my Jasmine test (they run just fine)?

I have some unit tests that are very very simple to test my angular controller. When I run them, they execute successfully; however, when I try to debug them, I get an exception.
I am running VS 2013, with AngularJS 1.2, ReSharper 8.2, Jasmine 1.3, and PhantomJS 1.9.7.
Here is my very simple controller:
(function() {
var app = angular.module("PermutedMultiples", []);
function mainController($scope) {
$scope.answer = -1;
$scope.N = 0;
}
app.controller("MainController", ["$scope", mainController]);
})();
Here is the simple test suite:
///<reference path="/Scripts/jasmine.js"/>
///<reference path="/Scripts/angular.js"/>
///<reference path="/Scripts/angular-mocks.js"/>
///<reference path="/Scripts/app/MainController.js"/>
describe("Main controller tests.", function () {
var scope;
beforeEach(module("PermutedMultiples"));
beforeEach(inject(function($controller, $rootScope) {
scope = $rootScope.$new();
$controller("MainController", { $scope: scope });
}));
it("Answer should be initialized to -1", function() {
expect(scope.answer).toBe(-1);
});
it("N should be initialized to 0", function() {
expect(scope.N).toBe(0);
});
})
Like I said: both tests run just fine, but when I try to debug into them, I get an ObjectDisposedException exception.
I write my tests, then I write the code to make the tests pass. When the test doesn't pass after I have written my code, I like to be able to debug through my code to figure out where the problem is. Can someone please help me figure out if I've done something wrong here?

Empty test suite - running Karma/jasmine tests with WebStorm 8

I have a problem to run my tests in Webstorm 8, here is my conf file :
Here is my AngularJS controller :
angular.module('monApp').controller('DashboardCtrl', [
'$scope', function ($scope) {
'use strict';
$scope.foo = 'bar';
}
]);
And my test file :
describe('Controller: DashboardCtrl', function () {
'use strict';
var DashboardCtrl,
scope;
beforeEach(module('monApp'));
beforeEach(inject(function ($controller, $rootScope) {
scope = $rootScope.$new();
DashboardCtrl = $controller('DashboardCtrl', {
$scope : scope
});
}));
it('dashboard should be defined', function () {
expect(scope.foo).toBeDefined();
expect(scope.foo).toBe('bar');
});
});
These are very simple, I followed steps of many tutorials, first installed node, then install karma with npm install, and when i run karma with karma start my.conf.js the test pass but it shows Empty test suite.
I precise that in my project, I just have 5 files :
angular.js
angular-mocks.js
the controller
test file
conf file
In the config file, i have added these 4 files with :
// list of files / patterns to load in the browser
files: [
'angular.js',
'angular-mocks.js',
'*.js'
],
When I try to throw the test by right-click I get an error telling : describe is not defined.
Thanks.
I tried to restart from scratch and it appears that my instantiation of my app module wasn't fine, this is better :
var app = angular.module('monApp', []);
app.controller('DashboardCtrl', ['$scope', function ($scope) { ....
And the first problem "empty test suite" was due to wrong basePath in the config file. Anyway, thanks for your answers !
Your my.conf.js must contain :
frameworks: ['jasmine']
And Karma need the bridge to Jasmine framework to be installed :
npm install karma-jasmine --save-dev
By default, karma loads all installed plugins which are starting with "karma-".
