Support for runnung tests in PhantomJS broken after upgrading to Ionic 2.1.0

[vbolshutkin]

I'm using your great project as a reference, but I need the tests to be run in PhantomJS. Earlier it worked well after small modifications:

in package.json under devDepenencies "karma-phantomjs-launcher": "^1.0.2",

in karma.conf.js add require('karma-phantomjs-launcher'), and set browsers: ['PhantomJS']

After recent commit 13a6cd6ac94de0897b0e0d3dca65261f9c7ac3a8 it fails with the following message:

PhantomJS 2.1.1 (Linux 0.0.0) ERROR SyntaxError: Unexpected token 'const'

I believe, this is related to babel preset, but didn't find a workaround yet

Figured it out: new tsconfig is set up for es6 as target. Also, some polyfills are disabled by default in @angular/cli 1.0.0-rc.0

The workaround is to write the following code in src/tsconfig.spec.json

    "lib": [
      "es2016","es6", "dom"
    ],
    "target": "es5",

and uncomment the last line in polyfills.ts

import 'intl';

Thanks a lot for providing the solution. Out of interest, why do you need to use Phantom?

@lathonez if you use temacity as your CI you cannot spawn chrome instances when the build is running, check this in the Karma documentation: http://karma-runner.github.io/1.0/plus/teamcity.html
