Here is the error raised in IE9 when running unit tests:
EXCEPTION: Error during instantiation of BrowserDetails!
(Token Promise<ComponentRef> -> DynamicComponentLoader -> AppViewManager -> Renderer -> DomRenderer -> AnimationBuilder -> BrowserDetails).
ORIGINAL EXCEPTION: TypeError: Object doesn't support property or method 'requestAnimationFrame'
According to http://caniuse.com/#feat=requestanimationframe , it happens in IE9 and Android 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3.
