Loading Javascript using <ltng : require>

Hi All,

I am new Salesforce Lightning experience. I am trying to call an external JavaScript by loading it as a Static resource and calling it in my Lightning application using the following syntax but I am unable to get it work.

<aura:application >
       <ltng:require scripts="{!$Resource.SDFCTestJS}" afterScriptsLoaded="{!c.afterScriptsLoaded}"/>
</aura:application>

Please suggest how can I get it work.

P.S : I read a solution that we can load Javascript by creating a Helper class and call it from our Component. Can anyone suggest a way so that I don't need to create helper everytime I call a component as I am going to have many; a way that I can include the JS directly from the above.

Thanks in advance.

Warm Regards,
Shubham

Hello Shubham,

Try to use normal script tag instead of this. 
<script src="{!$Resource.SDFCTestJS}" />
Thank You,
