Beschreibung

This is based on http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22824255/karma-clear-screen-after-running-tests.

Simply adding this in watcher.js at line 91, makes this work (at least on windows). All that is left to do is add the options to the config and pass them to watcher.

var util = require('util');
util.print("\u001b[2J\u001b[0;0H");

Is this something we want to add? I think it's useful.

Maybe we should instead support a beforeRun script that people could use to do that instead.

A workaround is to create a clear-screen-reporter that just overrides this.onRunStart and does

this.onRunStart = function() {
   console.log("\u001b[2J\u001b[0;0H");
};

Research-Richtung
Examine the watcher.js file at the linked line to understand the current autoWatch flow. Review the discussion in the issue comments, especially the suggestion for a 'beforeRun' script and the custom reporter workaround. Check the config file structure for adding a new boolean option like 'clearScreen'. The implementation should utilize the escape sequence \u001b[2J\u001b[0;0H to clear the console, ensuring cross platform compatibility. Also investigate if any open PRs or forks address this feature.
