Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the iframe behavior described for Karma 1.3.0, using a browser test that sets an iframe source to a local file with the file protocol. Review the relevant karma.config.js settings and determine whether the behavior is a limitation or a defect; done should include a clear conclusion backed by a reproducible sample or documented limitation.
