How to extract references into one external file in angularjs unit test

I am using Jasmine to writing Unit Test for my AngularJS project, But it seem dulicate code because in each spec file I have to add some references like below

/// <reference path="../../../bower_components/jasmine/lib/jasmine-core/jasmine.js" />
/// <reference path="../../../bower_components/jasmine/lib/jasmine-core/jasmine-html.js" />
/// <reference path="../../../bower_components/jasmine/lib/jasmine-core/boot.js" />
/// <reference path="../../../bower_components/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js" />
/// <reference path="../../../bower_components/jquery/dist/jquery.js" />
/// <reference path="../../../bower_components/angular/angular.js" />
/// <reference path="../../../vendors/js/jBox.js" />
/// <reference path="../../../bower_components/angular-mocks/angular-mocks.js" />

And so on

Is there a way extract the references into one external file, then I just add only that file on each test spec file.

Your best bet is to use typings to manage your third party type libraries. It works like this (copied from the typings quickstart guide):

# Install Typings CLI utility.
npm install typings --global

# Search for definitions.
typings search tape

# Find an available definition (by name).
typings search --name react

# If you use the package as a module:
# Install non-global typings (defaults to "npm" source, configurable through `defaultSource` in `.typingsrc`).
typings install debug --save

# If you use the package through script tag, or
# it is part of the environment, or

# the non-global typings is not yet available:
typings install dt~mocha --global --save

# Install typings from particular registry.
typings install env~atom --global --save
typings install npm~bluebird --save

# Use `typings/index.d.ts` (in `tsconfig.json` or as a `///` reference).
cat typings/index.d.ts

Then, once you have done this, either in every file you put a /// reference to typings/index.d.ts in every test file. Or (this is better) put a reference to typings/index.d.ts in your tsconfig file like this:

{
  "files": [
    "typings/index.d.ts"
  ]
}
