ECMA 6 not supported

[ILoveITScience]

Hello,

I have the following test:

"use strict";

describe("let", function () {

    // let available in ECMA 6 and higher
    it("Let", function () {
        let result = sum(2, 3);
        expect(result).toBe(5);

        function sum(value1, value2) {
            return value1 + value2;
        };
    });
});

It's not recognized by Chutzpah in the test explorer. If I change the word "let" into "var" it's recognized and displayed in the Visual Studio Test-Explorer. It seems like ECMA 2015 is not supported, is it?

• Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise
• Latest update of chutzpah
• jasmine 2.5.3

Chutzpah is bound by the version of PhanomJs it uses (http://phantomjs.org/download.html). This will be resolved when version 2.5 comes out but I do not know when they plan to release.

Thank you. I'll use babel to transpile the ecma 6 code to ecma 5.1. You can close the ticket.

i installed babel-cli but still i am getting error while inserting es6 syntax. Can you please share any config file or repo so that i can follow?

Saroj, Chutzpah does not support ES6, so there is no config or anything that the community can provide you. The only thing that you have to do is to make sure is that your code is actually ES5 before calling Chutzpah. Something that may help in this case is to run Chutzpah in the browser ( like google chrome) that supports ES6 and see if it actually works. I had your same issues, and the above steps helped me understand the real issues. Regards Simone

Thanks Zelig

@saroj08 @Zelig880 @ILoveITScience In the latest release I added support for running Chutzpah using node with JsDom or Chrome. This is early integration but will work for many. Learn more here
