I have a rails project and am running tests for my JavaScript test (Jasmine) through Karma

.travis.yml file

language: ruby
rvm:
  - 2.0.0
script:
  - RAILS_ENV=test bundle exec rake --trace db:migrate test
  - karma start --single-run --browsers PhantomJS test/karma/config/unit.js

Travis fails saying it does not find karma. is there a way to define node_js as another language and install karma on the build VM?

It is not possible yet to have several languages on travis configuration file.

On the other hand, all environments run node.js. The following script does the trick:

language: ruby
rvm:
  - 2.0.0
before_script:
  - npm install karma
script:
  - RAILS_ENV=test bundle exec rake --trace db:migrate test
  - karma start --single-run --browsers PhantomJS test/karma/config/unit.js
