npm test broken

[kabir]

Hi,

When I try to run npm test, I get errors.

Here is some output from my local setup following the steps from your stackoverflow post:

$npm test

I got the same problem trying to do the same with a clone of this repository as well.

I will dig into this myself (eventually!) and post back with any fix I come up with.

I got the same issue. For now I have a separate module, which bootstraps the application within single thread mode and it is used for testing. Not the best way but better than nothing.
@kabir did you came up with any solution?

@SergeyMell I gave up on using webworkers. My use case was displaying a huge table (a kanban board). Filtering issues etc. was very slow once you have a lot of data, but turned out to be a rendering problem. Once I trimmed the data to be passed to the rendering layer performance was good, and I did not need to use web workers.
