how do you run the tests locally?

[lalitkapoor]

I'd like to open a pull request for something, but I can't figure out how to run the tests. Can you please advise @vitalets. Thank you.

[eugef]

@mitcht, could you take a look?

[vitalets]

opening test/e2e/dev-test.html in browser is not work?

[mitcht]

I had to host it on an actual server before it would run...

[vitalets]

ok, it seems not to be a problem. I my current projects I use this:

npm i http-server -g
http-server test/e2e

it starts start static web server in specified directory.

@mitcht @vitalets I tried that in the past. All i get is errors as it tries to fetch the following (all 404s):

@mitcht @vitalets If I run the server in the root directory of the project and then navigate to tests/e2e/dev-test.html all I get are failures for the tests:

Error: [$injector:unpr] Unknown provider: editableIconsProvider <- editableIcons

@lalitkapoor I just re-checked: yes you should start server in root and then open in browser tests/e2e/doc-test.html - to test actual documentation examples work or tests/e2e/dev-test.html - to run tests during development

The second is really broken because of Unknown provider: editableIconsProvider <- editableIcons I think some commit has broken it. It would be great if you investigate and find error..

[lalitkapoor]

@vitalets do you mind trying to find the error? I'm not as familiar as you are with the code base. I'll try and help, but I feel like you should own this one because it means that master is not in a good state and things are not being properly tested before being merged.

We should add a CI maybe so that the chances of failing releases is reduced.

[mitcht]

The bower packages are out of date first of all. The newer versions don't quite work right. You might look down that road.

The tests have all been fixed in pull-request #443
