default tsconfig in BigTest expects `.ts`

[jbolda]

If you init a project without Typescript, it is very likely you won't have / configure a tsconfig.json. The default config does not have "allowJs": true set, so it will fail. To alleviate the issue, I had to make a tsconfig.json including it such as below. It still does appear to run though?

You can produce by removing the bigtest.tsconfig.json, updating bigtest.json to remove that reference, and running the tests. (Note you need to yarn ntl build and npx serve public for the test.)

We really ought to fix this, and I'm not sure what the options are. Are these some of them?

1. try to generate a "pseudo tsconfig" if one is not present, and make sure it allows includes ".js" files?
2. If there is no reference to to tsconfig.json in the bigtest config, then we don't include the rollup plugin at all?

@jbolda do you have an example repo that I can clone with this failing? I have an idea how to fix this.

[jbolda]

@dagda1 I think if you clone frontside.com and delete the bigtest.tsconfig.json you should be able to reproduce. I meant to say that in the OP but apparently missed it.

I've just tested this PR #961 and it seems to work
