Karma: Karma:Chrome not reporting any results

Created on 2 Sep 2014 · 3Comments · Source: karma-runner/karma

My first attempt with Karma is not working out very well. Two issues:

I only get the tests to run at all when I have autoWatch:true which was not the default;
and I only see that the tests have run in a debug window. All I see in the browser is:

Karma v0.12.23 - connected
Chrome 38.0.2125 (Linux) is idle

although there is a small flash of red background when I change a file. Conf file pasted below.

Can anyone advise? (I'm using code from http://www.ng-newsletter.com/advent2013/#!/day/19 )

// Karma configuration

module.exports = function(config) {
  config.set({

    // base path that will be used to resolve all patterns (eg. files, exclude)
    basePath: '',

  });

The strange thing about your setup is that you don't include any source files but only tests. Not sure if it is possible to help more just base on the info provided. Maybe create a GitHub repo with your minimal project so me or someone else can have a look?

How do you lunch Karma, actually?
