The `tsconfig.json` now contains both JavaScript and TypeScript module path mappings, the Grunt file will take care of adjusting the paths for TypeScript as well. Impact ====== Tests can now be written directly in TypeScript, making it easier to test TypeScript components, having auto-completion and IDE support. Tests written in TypeScript will be converted to JavaScript via the grunt task `scripts` and executed via the existing Karma configuration. .. index:: Backend, JavaScript
