Description
This might be a duplicate --- I searched but there were a lot of issues, hard to narrow it down effectively and quickly.
So, it's possible to work around this with multiple karma configurations, but it would be really nice if you could say "load file X if the browser is not Y or Z, otherwise load browser Ε".
Use case: loading sinon-ie as well as sinon, so that when IE runs would load the appropriate version, and non-IE runs would also load the appropriate version. This would be a kind of filtering behaviour, I guess.
I'm not really expecting this to be implemented, but it would be nice, and a lot more elegant than having per-browser karma configurations.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by tracing Karma's configuration path for included and served files, then examine how browser selection is represented. Define the filtering behavior for IE and non-IE runs, including how multiple matching files are handled, and verify that the existing per-browser configuration workaround remains unnecessary.
