Explain how to deal with paths and modules

[santicalvo]

I find hard to know how to run this.

Where do we need to run the command gentest?

How do we deal with modules and lazy loaded modules?

Ok, I didn't do a lot of research, I just created an app, a new component in folder and did this

ng new testing
cd testing
ng g c sample-test/sample

Now, I just don't know how to run the gentest command

Commands gentest sample-test/sample/sample.component.ts, gentest sample.component.ts :

internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1033
  throw err;
  ^

Error: Cannot find module '/home/user/Desktop/testing/testing/sample-test/sample/sample.component.ts'
......

Command gentest src/app/sample-test/sample/sample.component.ts:

/home/user/Desktop/testing/testing/src/app/sample-test/sample/sample.component.ts:1
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
^^^^^^

SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module

Thanks, I get you don't have to answer me and I can try to solve myself. But I have lots of things to do so I ask to save time.

@santicalvo run gentest src/app/sample-test/sample/sample.component.ts under /home/user/Desktop/testing/testing/ should work.

try

npx gentest src/app/sample-test/sample/sample.component.ts

gentest command must run under nodejs environment.
