Hello Philip, I was thinking on making the jasmine-gjs available through
NPM, so including it should be as easy as adding it to the package.json of
the project. I'll report my progress on this.
Using docker with travis however should help with the dated gjs found under
ubuntu tasty, I'll give that a try too.

Regards!
