intellij idea - Karma AngularJS testing: no tests found, describe() doesn't seem to exist -

my angular app had working unit tests. else reorganized stuff , added bower dependencies , other related projects. ever since, unit tests have been failing. i'm trying prepare again.

when started, had bunch of failing unit tests. ran bower install dependencies, no unit tests run @ all. when @ source code unit tests, ide (intellij) doesn't recognize describe(), beforeeach() , it() functions. recognize module() , inject() (both angular-mocks).

here's karma.conf.js:

module.exports = function (config) { config.set({ basepath: '../', frameworks: ['jasmine'], files: [ 'app/lib/jquery/jquery.min.js', 'app/lib/angular/angular.js', 'app/lib/angular-*/angular-*.js', 'app/lib/mylib-core/build/js/global.js', 'app/lib/mylib-components/build/js/components.js', 'app/js/*.js', 'app/js/**/*.js', 'test/unit/**/*spec.js', 'test/mocks/mockdata.js' ], plugins: [ 'karma-jasmine', 'karma-junit-reporter', 'karma-coverage', 'karma-chrome-launcher', 'karma-phantomjs-launcher' ], exclude: [ ], reporters: ['progress', 'coverage'], preprocessors: { 'app/js/**/*.js': 'coverage' }, coveragereporter: { type: 'html', dir: 'coverage' }, colors: true, loglevel: config.debug, autowatch: true, browsers: ['phantomjs'], capturetimeout: 60000, singlerun: false } ); };

the output of unit tests:

i can see *spec.js files in there, angular-mock.js , jasmine.js. , doesn't give errors, yet thinks there 0 tests (which assure not case). what's going wrong here?

i figured out. debug output mentions has loaded c:/workspace/myproject/app/lib/angular-scenario/angular-scenario.js, , that's because of 'app/lib/angular-*/angular-*.js' line in karma.conf.js.

the problem angular-scenario.js is totally different test framework jasmine, uses same syntax, angular-scenario.js defines same functions jasmine.js defines, overwriting functions need ones don't need. tests registered angular-scenario, , not jasmine. when jasmine executes registered tests, finds no tests execute.

adding:

exclude: [ 'app/lib/angular-scenario/angular-scenario.js' ],

to karma.conf.js fixed problem. well, this problem. i've still got plenty of other problems tests, i'll seek prepare on own first.
