Do not Install Karma Globally
Wow, I spent so long trying to figure out why the hell karma was not working for me, it turns out its because it was installed globally. For instance. In my projects package.json I had:
"scripts": { "test": "karma start karma.conf.js" } ...
npm test - it told me sh 1: karma not found Every other possible combination also did the same thing. i.e.
node_modules/karma/bin/karma./node_modules/karma/bin/karma
node ./node_modules/karma/bin/karma
