0.6.14 Uncaught Error: Missing: SyncTestZoneSpec for Angular RC4 tests

[binarious]

Since 0.6.14 I'm getting Uncaught Error: Missing: SyncTestZoneSpec for my Angular2 RC4 unit tests. They work with 0.6.13.

Affected project and failing build as a reference.

I'm using angular2-webpack-starter for my Angular2 project (like many others) which references zone.js via ~0.6.12 (package.json). This issue is likely affecting a lot of people.

same issue happening for me.. is there any update?

[binarious]

Downgrading zone.js to 0.6.13 works for me.

We get the same error with Angular 2 RC5. We are also using a configuration similar to angular2-webpack-starter, and therefore also automatically got the new zone.js version in our CI builds.

I did the below changes to the config/karma-test-shim.js (or config/spec-bundle.js) and unit tests worked again.

require('zone.js/dist/zone');
require('zone.js/dist/long-stack-trace-zone');
require('zone.js/dist/async-test');
require('zone.js/dist/fake-async-test');
require('zone.js/dist/sync-test');
require('zone.js/dist/proxy-zone'); // since zone.js 0.6.14
require('zone.js/dist/jasmine-patch'); // put here since zone.js 0.6.14

yup. that's the right fix. you need to load the sync-test zone in your testing harness.

We are using Angular2 RC2.

The above test shim update did not resolve the issue.

I updated package.json to this:

-    "zone.js": "^0.6.12",
+    "zone.js": "^0.6.14",

and updated to include:

require('zone.js/dist/proxy-zone');
require('zone.js/dist/sync-test');

These steps did not work.

Forcing a downgrade to 0.6.13 resolved the issue.

@cdcooksey Did you clear out your node modules and rerun npm install?
