"watched: false" not being honored in config file.

[joakimkarlsson]

Karma version: 0.8.6
OS: Windows 7 64 bit

Consider the following structure of my project:

<project-root>
│   karma.conf.js
│
├───app/
│       app.html
│       app.js
│
└───spec/
        spec.js

And the following karma.conf.js:

basePath = '';
files = [
  MOCHA,
  MOCHA_ADAPTER,
  'app/*.js',
  {pattern: 'app/*.html', included: false, served: true, watched: false},
  'spec/*.js'
];
reporters = ['progress'];
port = 9876;
runnerPort = 9100;
colors = true;
logLevel = LOG_INFO;
autoWatch = true;
browsers = ['Chrome'];
captureTimeout = 60000;
singleRun = false;

If I edit and save app/app.html while having karma watching my files, my tests will run even though the file pattern for html files states that the watcher should ignore them.

@joakimkarlsson thanks for reporting this. I confirm this is a bug.

chokidar does not watch patterns, but directories, therefore karma watches common parent directly of each pattern. We need to check the patterns inside "ignore" function (https://github.com/karma-runner/karma/blob/master/lib/watcher.js#L47). Because fileList does not care about watched/non watched (which is correct).
