The test init command to add a sample test in TypeScript for TypeScript/Angular projects

See original GitHub issue

The tns test init command configures a project for unit testing, creates a tests folder in the app directory and adds an example.js file in it with a sample test.

It would be great the sample test to be in TypeScript (example.ts) for TypeScript/Angular projects.

In a project of entirely typescript files, it seems backwards to write JavaScript tests. Is there any update to this, or is anyone aware of how to get my tests compiled along with tns test <platform>?

Adding karma-typescript to the karma.conf.js causes issues (Javascript running out of memory, tsconfig related conflicts, generally seems to be the wrong way to achieve this) - I can’t seem to figure out how other people are writing tests in typescript (example: nativescript-angular’s tests are all in typescript)

This worked, but the test init command put the files in src/tests/, so we made this line in the karma.conf.js src/tests/**/*.ts
