Angular2 material 'md-icon' is not a known element with Karma / Jasmine
<p>I'm working on an Angular2 application using 
@angular/material 2.0.0-alpha.11-3
angular-cli 1.0.0-beta.19-3
karma 1.2.0
karma-jasmine 1.0.2</p>

<p>Running it works fine but a couple of the tests where the template has a button with md-icon fail with template errors:</p>

<pre><code>ERROR: 'Unhandled Promise rejection:', 'Template parse errors:
'md-icon' is not a known element:
1. If 'md-icon' is an Angular component, then verify that it is part of this module.                                
2. If 'md-icon' is a Web Component then add "CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA" to the '@NgModule.schemas' of this component to suppress this message
</code></pre>

<p>My app.module.ts:</p>

<pre><code>import { MaterialModule } from '@angular/material';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent,
    LinearProgressIndicatorComponent,
    MyNewDirectiveDirective,
    MyNewServiceDirective,
    HeaderComponent,
    MenuComponent,
    WatchpanelComponent,
    InputComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    FormsModule,
    HttpModule,
    NgbModule.forRoot(),
    MaterialModule.forRoot(),
  ],
  exports: [ MaterialModule ],
  providers: [LocalStorage],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }
</code></pre>

<p>watchpanel.component.spec.ts:</p>

<pre><code>import { async, ComponentFixture, TestBed } from '@angular/core/testing';
import { By } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { DebugElement } from '@angular/core';
import { WatchpanelComponent } from './watchpanel.component';

describe('WatchpanelComponent', () =&gt; {
  let component: WatchpanelComponent;
  let fixture: ComponentFixture&lt;WatchpanelComponent&gt;;

  beforeEach(async(() =&gt; {
    TestBed.configureTestingModule({
      declarations: [ WatchpanelComponent ] // declare the test component
    })
    .compileComponents();

    fixture = TestBed.createComponent(WatchpanelComponent);
    component = fixture.componentInstance;
    fixture.detectChanges();

  }));

  // beforeEach(() =&gt; {
  //   fixture = TestBed.createComponent(WatchpanelComponent);
  //   component = fixture.componentInstance;
  //   fixture.detectChanges();
  // });

  it('should create', () =&gt; {
    expect(component).toBeTruthy();
  });
});
</code></pre>

<p>As I understood it @angular/material now contains the only module needed to import, MaterialModule. I tried importing the MdIconModule from @angular2-material/icon with no success. What am i doing wrong ?
Thanks in advance </p>
