I just wonder if there is a simple tutorial showing how to test javascript in visual studio with Chutzpah, require.js and jasmine.
Basically, i want to run the tests without using an .html file so that i can see the results in the vs test explorer.

You can find some sample codes here: https://chutzpah.codeplex.com/SourceControl/latest#Samples/RequireJS/Jasmine/tests/base/base.jasmine.test.js
Please note if you want to use requirejs with Chutzpah and Jasmine, you need to set TestHarnessReferenceMode to AMD in chutzpah.json. Otherwise the tests won't be ran in browser.
{
"Framework": "jasmine",
"TestHarnessReferenceMode": "AMD",
"TestHarnessLocationMode": "SettingsFileAdjacent",
"References": [
{ "Path": "require-2.1.8.js" },
{ "Path": "config.js" }
],
"Tests": [
{ "Path": "tests" }
]
}
Here's a pretty useful video to get you started with Chutzpah and Jasmine ...

I don't think if you add Require js it is going to make much difference to the demo in the video in terms of how you set things up.
I managed to make the tests run simply by adding an AMD module where i load all the test modules; That is, i created the all.test.js file in which i simply load all the test modules as dependencies:
requirejs.config({
// same as the applications main baseUrl
baseUrl: '../',
});
requirejs([
'tests/moduleA',
'tests/moduleB'
],
function () { }
);
In a sense, this is the main requires module for the test modules.
Now you right click and open it in a browser or you can use the test runner to run the tests.
