Question

I am trying to test directive in angular using Jasmine. I installed karma-ng-html2js-preprocessor using NPM. Then I istalled jQuery using Bower but I am getting this error

I made directive like this
angular.module('app',[]).controller('first',function($scope,data){
$scope.name='test';
$scope.message='application';
data.getData().then(function(data){
console.log(data);
})
}).factory('data',function($http){
return{
getData:getData
}
function getData(){
return $http.get('data.json').success(successCall).error(errorcallback)
}
function successCall(data){
return data
}
function errorcallback(data){
return data
}
}).directive('helloWorld',function(){
return {
restrict:'E',
scope:{
data:'=',
message:'#'
} ,
templateUrl:'app/partial/home.html',
link:function(s,e,a){
}
}
})
home.html
<div class="dir">
<h1>{{data}}</h1>
<h1>{{message}}</h1>
</div>
test.js
describe('http controller test', function () {
var $rootScope,
$scope,
$compile,
$body=$('body'),
el,
$el,
controller,
html='<hello-world data="name" message="{{message}}"></hello-world>';
beforeEach(function(){
module('templates','app') ;
inject(function($injector){
$rootScope = $injector.get('$rootScope') ;
$compile = $injector.get('$compile') ;
$scope=$rootScope.$new();
el=$compile(angular.element(html))($scope)
controller =$injector.get('$controller')('first',{$scope:$scope})
})
$body.append(el);
$rootScope.$digest();
$el=$('.dir');
})
afterEach(function(){
$body.empty();
})
it('it should be one',function(){
expect($el.length).isEqual(1)
})
describe('Init value',function(){
it('check name value',function(){
expect($scope.name).toEqual('test');
})
})
it('it should be true',function(){
expect(true).toBeTruthy();
})
})
and there is karma-config file
// Karma configuration

module.exports = function(config) {
config.set({

})
}
I already declared the template module like this
ngHtml2JsPreprocessor:{
moduleName:'templates'
},

I have no prior experiences with karma-ng-html2js-preprocessor so this is more like a guess - could it be that template module was not generated because no templates were found.
Could you try to change this part of files section of your karma-config from:
'app/**/.html'
to:
'app/**/*.html'
and preprocessors section from:
preprocessors: {
'app/**/.html':['ng-html2js']
}
to
preprocessors: {
'app/**/*.html':['ng-html2js']
}
Update:
If that doesn't work for you, you could set log level of Karma to
logLevel: config.LOG_DEBUG
and try to search for lines starting with DEBUG [preprocessor.html2js] to gather additional info related to html2js preprocessor.
