How do you test Polymer elements using the new test library?
Using the new test library to test a Dart Polymer element, I build my_element_test.html as prescribed. Please see my repo: polymer-dart-testing.
No Polymer Initiation Passes
my_element_test.html and my_element_test.dart (commenting out Polymer initiation) passes tests as expected:
my_element_test.html
<!doctype html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>My Element Test</title>
    <link rel="import" href="packages/polymer_dart_testing/my_element.html">
    <link rel="x-dart-test" href="my_element_test.dart">
    <script src="packages/test/dart.js"></script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div>Custom HTML Test is Custom.</div>
    <my-element></my-element>
  </body>
</html>
my_element_test.dart
import 'package:test/test.dart';
import 'package:polymer_dart_testing/my_element.dart';
import 'package:polymer/polymer.dart';
import 'dart:html';
main() {
  setUp(() async {
    // await initPolymer();
    // return await Polymer.onReady;
  });
  test('custom_html_test', (){
    expect(true, isTrue);
  });
}
Loading in Dartium without pub run test... passes in the console and shows custom element, after adding test/my_element_test.html to the polymer entry point in pubspec.yaml.
pubspec.yaml
transformers:
- polymer:
    entry_points:
     - web/index.html
     - test/my_element_test.html
my_element_test.html
<!doctype html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>My Element Test</title>
    <link rel="import" href="packages/polymer_dart_testing/my_element.html">
  </head>
  <body>
    <div>Custom HTML Test is Custom.</div>
    <my-element></my-element>
    <script type="application/dart" src="my_element_test.dart"></script>
  </body>
</html>
my_element_test.dart
import 'package:test/test.dart';
import 'package:polymer_dart_testing/my_element.dart';
import 'package:polymer/polymer.dart';
import 'dart:html';
main() {
  setUp(() async {
    await initPolymer();
    return await Polymer.onReady;
  });
  test('custom_html_test', (){
    expect(true, isTrue);
  });
}
However, pub run test... fails when initiating Polymer and adding to the pubspec entry point.

The annotation
@whenPolymerReadyonmain()is missing. Also the test transformer (explained in the README.md of the test package) should be added to the transformer section in pubspec.yaml.
