Testing google maps OR using remote js

[apneadiving]

Hi,

I'm using jasmine to test my js and am happy with it.

Now I'd like to test my google maps scripts and unlike the following
post:

I'd like to use the real google maps api to make my tests.

How is it possible to make a call to an external js using jasmine?

Thanks in advance,

Benjamin

It's just JavaScript, so you can include all the JS you want on the runner page.

However, it is an antipattern to depend on an external service in your tests. It slows you down and can be hard to migrate to another api - say, if you move to Bing Maps the way a lot of apps are these days.

I'll keep your advice in mind but I really don't know HOW I could
integrate the external js.

Could you please provide some code?

Thanks in advance,

Benjamin
