# Karma Test Explorer (for Angular, Jasmine, and Mocha)
This extension adds a rich and fully integrated testing experience to Visual Studio Code for Angular, TypeScript, and JavaScript projects that use [Karma](https://karma-runner.github.io/latest/index.html) for testing.
It shows your Karma tests in a visual explorer in VS Code, adds code lenses and gutter decorations to your test files, and shows test failure details inline within your code at the point of each failure.
The side bar shows rich information about your tests, including focused ⚡ and disabled 💤 tests (left image), and details summarizing passed, failed and skipped tests after each test execution (right image).

- Cloud and remote development sceanarios with [Dev Containers](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/containers)
- Good performance with large projects having many thousands of tests
- Zero-configuration user experience that "just works" for most setups
- Flexibility to support a wide range of testing scenarios and workflows
- Reliability, usability, and productivity
## Features
- Rich visual test browsing, execution, and debugging
- Angular, Karma, Jasmine, and Mocha support
- Multi-project / monorepo / multi-root workspace support
- Live test validation of changing product code
- Auto-detection and fix recommendations for various testing issues
- [Much more](docs/documentation.md#features)
## Quick Start
In many cases, testing should work out of the box:
- Ensure Chrome browser and the project dependencies are installed
- Install the Karma Test Explorer [extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=lucono.karma-test-explorer) and wait a moment while it initializes
- When done, your tests should be displayed in the Testing side bar
- Use the many [extension settings](docs/documentation.md#extension-settings) to customize it to any other needs of your project
