And you are all set! You can now modify your components on the fly without having to reload the entire page.

Testing

1. Unit Tests

• single run: npm test
• live mode (TDD style): npm run test-watch

2. End-to-End Tests (aka. e2e, integration)

• single run:
  • in a tab, if not already running!: npm start
  • in a new tab: npm run webdriver-start
  • in another new tab: npm run e2e
• interactive mode:
  • instead of the last command above, you can run: npm run e2e-live
  • when debugging or first writing test suites, you may find it helpful to try out Protractor commands without starting up the entire test suite. You can do this with the element explorer.
  • you can learn more about Protractor Interactive Mode here

Production

To build your application, run:

• npm run build

You can now go to /dist and deploy that to your server!

Documentation

You can generate api docs (using TypeDoc) for your code with the following:

• npm run docs
