ReferenceError：在Jasmine单元测试的Karma上未定义AngularJS

Question

I'm actually stuck since few hours, my boss wants me to proceed to unit testing on the functionalities i coded last week, when I do my karma start karma.conf.js it gives me the following issue :

"message": "An error was thrown in afterAll\\nUncaught ReferenceError: angular is not defined",

my files structure :

webapp
    -www
        -services
            api.service.js
    -test
        test.test.js
    karma.conf.js

essential of karma.conf.js :

module.exports = function(config) {
  config.set({
  files: [
    'www/js/services/api.service.js',
    'test/**/*.test.js'
  ],
})
}

I think Karma doesn't find my api.service.js but i don't know why, the angularjs code actually work in the webapp.

content of my test.test.js :

(function() {
'use strict';

   describe('apiService', function() {

     it('should return an array of object', function() {
     var artist = typeof getArtist(118680); // MGMT Artist
     console.log(artist);
     expect(artist).toEqual('array');
     });
   });
})();

getArtist is the function I need to test situated in api.service.js.

Thank you,

Paul.

Karma needs the angular file to test angularJS code. You need to include it in the files array in the karma configuration.

module.exports = function(config) {
  config.set({
  files: [
    'path-to-angular.js',
    'www/js/services/api.service.js',
    'test/**/*.test.js'
  ],
 })
}
