Hi, this is not really an coding issue (sorry if here is not the right place to post that), but I wanna know if there's a way to launch IE without the "-extoff" flag.

I already did that changing the original launcher code, but If possible I prefer a manner where I dont have to modify third party code. Maybe using preprocessors but I dont know how ...

Someone could help me with that?

Thx

-extoff is bad, since it also disables the FlashSocket used by Karma to track progress if WebSockets are not available.
This causes our unit tests to abort when running on IE9. So I had to manually fix this in index.js.

In my opinion, the parameters for the IE process should be configurable.

Our project relies on Flash and -extoff makes it impossible to run our test case.

This is a major issue for me at $DAYJOB.

Our Windows desktops are locked down tightly, and IE will not start if -extoff is passed, so that users can't work around the controls IT has added to IE.

Thus, we cannot use the stock karma IE launcher.

I've currently just manually fixed this in index.js, and told the rest of my team to do the same.

It would be great to see IE options made configurable.
