Does Jasmine 2.0 really not work with require.js?
jasmine, requirejs
Solution
The new boot.js does a bunch of the initialization and attaches it to window.onload() which has already been called by the time require.js loads Jasmine. You can manually call window.onload() to initialize the HTML Reporter and execute the environment.

(function() {
'use strict';
// Configure RequireJS to shim Jasmine
require.config({
baseUrl: '..',
paths: {
'jasmine': 'tests/lib/jasmine-2.0.0/jasmine',
'jasmine-html': 'tests/lib/jasmine-2.0.0/jasmine-html',
'boot': 'tests/lib/jasmine-2.0.0/boot'
},
shim: {
'jasmine': {
exports: 'window.jasmineRequire'
},
'jasmine-html': {
deps: ['jasmine'],
exports: 'window.jasmineRequire'
},
'boot': {
deps: ['jasmine', 'jasmine-html'],
exports: 'window.jasmineRequire'
}
}
});
// Define all of your specs here. These are RequireJS modules.
var specs = [
'tests/spec/routerSpec'
];
// Load Jasmine - This will still create all of the normal Jasmine browser globals unless `boot.js` is re-written to use the
// AMD or UMD specs. `boot.js` will do a bunch of configuration and attach it's initializers to `window.onload()`. Because
// we are using RequireJS `window.onload()` has already been triggered so we have to manually call it again. This will
// initialize the HTML Reporter and execute the environment.
require(['boot'], function () {
// Load the specs
require(specs, function () {
// Initialize the HTML Reporter and execute the environment (setup by `boot.js`)
window.onload();
});
});
})();
Example spec
define(['router'], function(router) {
'use strict';
describe('router', function() {
it('should have routes defined', function() {
router.config({});
expect(router.routes).toBeTruthy();
});
});
});
Problem
I'm setting up my SpecRunner.html/.js, RequireConfig.js, my paths and my shims just like I have with earlier release candidates of Jasmine + RequireJs, but now my test methods show Jasmine undefined. They've recently changed to a different method of loading Jasmine that I understand is incompatible with RequireJs. Is my understanding correct? If so, will we ever be able to use Jasmine + RequireJs again?
