The default src/**/*.js
pattern is ignored by Chokidar because of the src/widgets/**/*.test.js
pattern. This is fundamentally a Chokidar bug, so if anybody can help out that'd be great.
In the meantime I suppose we could clean up the patterns we pass to Chokidar and remove more specific ones if they're already covered by a generic pattern. I'm not sure if tools for that already exist, @sindresorhus? This may be easier than fixing Chokidar though.

Not that I'm aware of.
run
ava -w src/widgets/**/*.test.js
and AVA starts in watch mode and should rerun depending tests when changing a source file (e.g.src/widgets/MyWidgets.js
).This only works on Mac and not on Linux/Windows because of a chockidar bug. In short the bug here is that the pattern which says which tests should be run is more special as default pattern for source files or configured in package.json (e.g. source: 'src/*/.js').
Before version 0.18.0 users could add additional sources by the
--sources
flag:ava -w -S src/widgets/**/*.js src/widgets/**/*.test.js
If you run into that problem you can probably downgrade AVA to 0.17.0 and run with that solution.Complete discussion on gitter: https://gitter.im/avajs/ava?at=58a405adf045df0a224cfb18
