Memory problem in big projects about angular-karma_test-explorer HOT 4 CLOSED

@Tucaen Awesome man! that is a really helpful bug report. Thank you very much. I will do some investigation about it and see what I can find. I will report here when I get some new information. Hopefully I can replicate this, also I will check if there is a chance for me to allow people include some extra commands to the ng test for special cases like this one :)

Hi @dylansteen thank you for reporting this, indeed I am working on a fix just as you mentioned, giving the user the possibility to add parameters to the call. I will let you know here when this fix is done.

since 1.2.1 there is two new properties, angularProcessCommand which is a string and you guys should use node --max_old_space_size=4000 ./node_modules/@angular/cli/bin/ng test.

and angularProcessArguments which is an array of strings and you guys can use
--source-map=true, --code-coverage=true

be aware that I am not checking every single possibility you could setup in this fields. if you don't do things properly you could cause the Test Explorer to stop working. I will not support any specific logic preventing edge cases.

Just an example:
Arguments: --watch=true and --karmaConfig=karmaConfig will mess up the functionality of the system. don't use them.

I'm experiencing a similar, but not quite the same issue. Our project is very large and sometimes experiences a memory issue.

I see that the Angular team is trying to work on these issues, see here:

angular/angular-cli#13734 (comment)

I would really love if the ability to pass extra commands was added, because we use the same solution in order to run the app (--max_old_space_size) but we also pass some other arguments, notably --source-map=true and --code-coverage.

Having the ability to have all these options would mean I could view code coverage from running tests with this extension, directly in vscode using the extension "Coverage Gutters"... which would be amazing!
