Karma in application build mode throws "handle multiple spec files with same name"

[Klaster1]

Command

test

Is this a regression?

Description

After setting "buildMode: application" for my Karma unit test setup, I am getting multiple "Two output files share the same path but have different contents" errors. The project contains five independent "data-source.spec.ts" suites, each a service for a different component. I suspect the "-2" suffix does not take this into account.

Suite paths:

• C:\dev\gmc\modules\frontend\src\app\sql\page-query-statistics\data-source.spec.ts
• C:\dev\gmc\modules\frontend\src\app\sql\page-running-queries\running-queries-table\data-source.spec.ts
• C:\dev\gmc\modules\frontend\src\app\alerting\page-notification-channels\data-source.spec.ts
• C:\dev\gmc\modules\frontend\src\app\monitoring-dashboard\widget-remote-senders\data-source.spec.ts
• C:\dev\gmc\modules\frontend\src\app\caches\page-partition-distribution\providers\data-source.spec.ts

Minimal Reproduction

1. Have five unit test suites with the same file name located in different directories.
2. Configure "buildMode: application".
