ns test android --justlaunch does not exit

[meeshkabob]

After upgrading karma-nativescript-launcher from ^0.4.0 to 1.0.0, flag --justlaunch no longer exits. The unit tests complete, and then the process continues to run. This is breaking our CI.

We fixed this by downgrading back to version ^0.4.0.

Here is the console output from tns test android --justlaunch:
