[Pavol Pitonak (JIRA)]

Pavol Pitonak commented on JBDS-3769:
-------------------------------------

Since we cannot fix browser-tests (tests for Angular directives running using Karma), we should first replace these tests by ui-tests.

After tests are fixed, we can proceed with removing JSPM from the project (inspiration in https://github.com/ppitonak/developer-platform-install/tree/jspm_removed2)

> After a change introduced in jspm 0.16.32 which caused our builds to fail (JBDS-3747) now another issue has arisen causing errors on npm install (both local and in CI environment). Even if this new issue is fixed in jspm, we would still have to face the first issue after updating.
> Therefore I propose to remove jspm entirely. We only use a small fraction of its functionality and it needlessly complicates the build + causes major issues. Since such change is likely to be quite complex, we should slip it after the April release and use an existing quick fix in the mean time.
