In fact, you don't have to wait for phantomjs 2.5 release.

• npm install --save-dev karma-phantomjs-launcher

• in karma.conf.js

  • add require('karma-phantomjs-launcher') to the plugins section
  • add PhantomJS to the browsers

• npm install --save intl

• in src/polyfill.ts
  • add import 'intl'; (uncomment at the bottom)
  • add import "core-js/client/shim"; to the Evergreen requirements section
• In src/tsconfig.spec.json set the target to es5.
