Karma/Jasmine - Test Files not loading in Base, Module Not Defined - jasmine

Question

I'm having a hell of a time with Karma/Jasmine. I'm just trying to run the example specs from Jasmine's site.
When I run jasmine on command line, the tests run fine. However, if I try to run them using Karma test runner, I have a multitude of problems.
Here's My File Structure
Here's my karma.conf.js file:
module.exports = function(config) {
config.set({
// base path that will be used to resolve all patterns (eg. files, exclude)
basePath: '',
// frameworks to use
// available frameworks: https://npmjs.org/browse/keyword/karma-adapter
frameworks: ['jasmine', 'requirejs'],
// list of files / patterns to load in the browser
files: [
'node_modules/requirejs/require.js',
'**/test-main.js', {
pattern: 'spec/jasmine_examples/*.js',
included: false
}
],
// list of files to exclude
exclude: ['**/*conf.js'],
...port,browser etc.
Here's my test.main.js file
var allTestFiles = [];
var TEST_REGEXP = /(spec|test)\.js$/i;
var pathToModule = function(path) {
return path.replace(/^\/base\//, '').replace(/\.js$/, '');
};
Object.keys(window.__karma__.files).forEach(function(file) {
if (TEST_REGEXP.test(file)) {
// Normalize paths to RequireJS module names.
allTestFiles.push(pathToModule(file));
}
});
require.config({
// Karma serves files under /base, which is the basePath from your config file
baseUrl: '/base',
// dynamically load all test files
deps: allTestFiles,
// we have to kickoff jasmine, as it is asynchronous
callback: window.__karma__.start
});
When I run karma start, I get a 404 that PlayerTest.js and SongTest.js are not under base/. However they are loaded and located in base/spec/jasmine_examples. In addition, PlayerTest.js throws an error "module not defined".
Honestly, what am I doing wrong?

I think you need to refer to the karma-requirejs and the karma-jasmine plugins in the karma.conf.js file -
config.set({
plugins: [
'karma-jasmine',
'karma-requirejs'
],
From karma doc, it states:
Please note just about all frameworks in Karma require an additional plugin/framework library to be installed (via NPM).
Additional information can be found in plugins.
You will not need to have require.js in the files section.
