Answer 1

I think you have to install it globally to run it like this . Or you can add the directory to your PATH :

Right click

My Computer' and go to Properties > Advanced System Settings > Environment Variables.

Double click on PATH under the 'User variables for Username' section, and add

C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\testrpc

obviously replacing 'username' with yours.

Restart your console window or IDE and you should get a response from the bower command.

Answer 2

您需要在系统上全局安装testrpc。

sudo npm install -g testrpc
