Loading/including additional config files inside testacular.conf.js

[matsko]

Would it be possible to get testacular to be able to include additional configuration files inside of it's exsting configuration file?

Image if you have multiple testacular suites (like e2e tests, unit tests, 3rd party tests inside of angularjs) and you have multiple separate testacular.conf.js file (testacular.e2e.conf.js, testacular.unit.conf.js, etc...) and you want the bulk of the configurations to be shared across all of them. Then you would have to edit each file each time you make a change (like changing browsers, watch directives and so on). It would be nice if there was a shared configuration between multiple files.

I've tried doing var shared = require('./shared.conf.js'); but the variable is empty (even though the file is found and there is data inside).

Yep, you can do that. We do the same thing on AngularJS: https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/master/testacular-e2e.conf.js#L1

However, it handles relative paths incorrectly (it behaves as if the config file was in testacular's source). That's why you need to use __dirname. https://github.com/vojtajina/testacular/issues/304

Awesome, could you possibly make a note of this in the readme?
