When writing tests run by Karma for an application that’s bundled with webpack, it’s easiest to integrate webpack and Karma directly together. In this lesson we’ll see how to utilize the karma-webpack plugin and reuse our existing webpack configuration to preprocess our test files with webpack.
karma.config.js:
const webpackEnv = {test: true}
const webpackConfig = require('./webpack.config')(webpackEnv)
const fileGlob = 'src/js/**/*.test.js'
module.exports = function setKarmaConfig(config) {
config.set({
basePath: '',
frameworks: ['mocha', 'chai'],
files: [fileGlob],
preprocessors: {
[fileGlob]: ['webpack']
},
webpack: webpackConfig,
webpackMiddleware: {noInfo: true}, // no webpack output
reporters: ['progress'],
port: ,
colors: true,
logLevel: config.LOG_INFO,
autoWatch: false,
browsers: ['Chrome'],
singleRun: true,
concurrency: Infinity
})
}
webpack.config.js:
const {resolve} = require('path')
module.exports = env => {
return {
entry: './js/app.js',
output: {
filename: 'bundle.js',
path: resolve(__dirname, 'dist'),
pathinfo: !env.prod,
},
context: resolve(__dirname, 'src'),
devtool: env.prod ? 'source-map' : 'eval',
bail: env.prod,
module: {
loaders: [
{test: /\.js$/, loader: 'babel!eslint', exclude: /node_modules/},
{test: /\.css$/, loader: 'style!css'},
],
},
}
}
