'Angular CLI command issue: "Unknown option: '--spec'"

I am running this command:

C:\Users\Murali\my-first-app>ng g c abcde5 --dry-run -t -s --spec=false

I am receiving the following error:

Unknown option: '--spec'

How can I correct my command to avoid this?

Solution 1:^[1]

You can find all options here. Answering you question replace --spec=false by --skip-tests. If it won't working please provide the AngularCLI version

Solution 2:^[2]

You can also use --skip-tests flag to skip generating .spec files. For more detail, you can use ng g c --help, this will give you further details

Solution 3:^[3]

If you are using Angular CLI version 3, replace

--spec=false

with

--skipTests=true

Solution 4:^[4]

Instead of

--spec=false

use

--skip-tests

Don't use --skipTests=true because

Support for camel case arguments has been deprecated and will be removed in a future major version.

Solution 5:^[5]

ng g c componentname --skipTests true

In the newer version of Angular CLI --spec is replaced with --skipTests.

This is working at my site.

Solution 6:^[6]

Use rather than --sepc false :

--skip-tests

In the old version of angular, it's was working right but in the new version this not working with me anymore.
