pipe preprocessors about karma-browserify HOT 4 CLOSED

You'll need to use a browserify transform rather than a preprocessor

Ok Ben, thanks for you answer.
But could you explain me why browserify preprocessor don't work as a pipe? (it's also the case with other karma browserify preprocessors)
Also, the link you gave me use traceur, and I use es6-transpiler. Anyway, I'll take a close look at this.

Cheers

Seems like es6-browserify should work fine.

Preprocessors can normally be chained but the way karma-bro works is a bit of a hack. It has to insert a bundle file as a framework, but Karma does not give frameworks the ability to perform async operations. So instead it needs to insert a shim file that later is added to the karma files array and later receives the bundled code. It also reads the files directly versus grabbing Karma's representation of them.

This will hold, by the way, for anything you want to change with your code. Once you're using Browserify, you need to use transforms. If you wanted to use Istanbul, for example, you'd use a transform and not a preprocessor.
