This enables us to do real unit testing of Angular JS constructs like controllers, factories or services in a very simple and fast fashion.

Modern Javascript frameworks allow us to achieve smooth user experience in our web applications. In fact, "single page applications" (SPA) have increased in the marketplace because of them. Current developers (of course, me too) can't live without using AngularJS, React, Ember, jQuery… and, of course, without Grunt, Node, Bower, Gulp… It is cool and nice. All of us working with the same map of technologies and trying to get the same goal: the best user experience. But, are we really achieving this goal? or are we forgetting about something/someone? Single page applications have important…

Frameworks and libraries such as Angular, Ember, jQuery, Durandal, Backbone, React, Meteor, Grunt, Bower, NPM, Gulp, Broccoli, Karma, Jasmine, Mocha … WAIT WHAT? There are too many technologies to navigate effectively and frameworks are becoming obsolete even before becoming the standard (I am looking at you Angular 1.3, hmm 1.4 but…
