About karma-skill
karma-skill is a reference skill for configuring and running Karma tests, including Jasmine and Angular projects. It covers production configuration, component and service testing, async patterns, and CI workflows.
Key features
- 01Karma configuration and run commands
- 02Jasmine test patterns
- 03Angular component and service testing
- 04RxJS and asynchronous test patterns
- 05Coverage, CI, and debugging guidance
Use cases
- 01Set up a Karma and Jasmine test suite
- 02Test Angular components, HTTP services, and directives
- 03Check RxJS behavior and async cleanup
- 04Configure coverage and CI test reporting

Core Patterns
karma.conf.js
module.exports = function(config) {
config.set({
basePath: '',
frameworks: ['jasmine'],
files: [
'src/**/*.js',
'test/**/*.spec.js'
],
preprocessors: {
'src/**/*.js': ['coverage']
},
reporters: ['progress', 'coverage'],
coverageReporter: {
type: 'html',
dir: 'coverage/'
},
port: 9876,
colors: true,
logLevel: config.LOG_INFO,
autoWatch: true,
browsers: ['Chrome', 'Firefox'],
singleRun: false,
concurrency: Infinity,
// LambdaTest cloud browsers
customLaunchers: {
ChromeLT: {
base: 'WebDriver',
config: {
hostname: 'hub.lambdatest.com',
port: 80
},
browserName: 'Chrome',
version: 'latest',
name: 'Karma Test',
tunnel: true,
user: process.env.LT_USERNAME,
accessKey: process.env.LT_ACCESS_KEY
}
}
});
};
Test with Jasmine Framework
describe('StringUtils', () => {
it('should capitalize first letter', () => {
expect(StringUtils.capitalize('hello')).toBe('Hello');
});
it('should handle empty string', () => {
expect(StringUtils.capitalize('')).toBe('');
});
});
Angular Integration
// karma.conf.js for Angular
frameworks: ['jasmine', '@angular-devkit/build-angular'],
plugins: [
require('karma-jasmine'),
require('karma-chrome-launcher'),
require('karma-coverage'),
require('@angular-devkit/build-angular/plugins/karma')
],
Setup: npm install karma karma-jasmine karma-chrome-launcher karma-coverage --save-dev
Run: npx karma start or npx karma start --single-run
Init: npx karma init karma.conf.js
