generator-angular: task "karma" not found when calling `grunt test`
I'm trying to setup a development environment with Yeoman for AngularJS,
I installed Yeoman according to the instructions: sudo npm install -g yo bower grunt-cli generator-angular and I'm generating a new app with yo angular.
After the app is generated, running karma start does start the karma server, but running grunt test result in
Loading "grunt-karma.js" tasks...ERROR
>> TypeError: object is not a function
Warning: Task "karma" not found. Use --force to continue.
Aborted due to warnings.
how do I fix this ?
EDIT: some files (generated fresh from Yeoman)
