Repro steps.

Running

ng new testapp --skip-tests

would still see the e2e files and config files of karma and protractor

The log given by the failure.

Desired functionality.

It shouldn't include the test files like these, should it?

Mention any other details that might be useful.

That's a potential debate, but for what you're looking for, consider using this:

ng new testapp --minimal

This will create a new app with no test structures (spec files or dependencies) and will also inline both styles and templates.

That's what I used instead. Thanks!

But on the other hand, saw some commit history contains the --skip-e2e flag, tried and also didn't work. So is there no way to exclude e2e tests right now?

[NoNameProvided]

We would love to see also a skip-e2e option, as we are rolling our own. What was the reason removing the already existing implementation?

Marking as duplicate of https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/9160 just because that one has a bit more traction.
