UT/E2E test with route?

[Xi Shen]

Hi,

I am wondering if there's a way to test the route behavior using unit test, or E2E test. I am using Testacular and ngScenario.

I tried "browser().navigateTo('/mytest')", and the in the browser console, I see ngScenario is really trying to load that URl, and got a 404 error, because I did not start my web server. But I think starting my web server won't help here. I want to know if the URL is handled by NG, and if my controller is called, or the "$routeChangeSuccess" event is triggered.

Any idea how to implement this?

Thanks,

David.

E2e tests rely on a host serving up your files. It is end to end after all!

Is there a way to create a unit test for route?

What is it about the route that you want to test?

I want to test if router passes params into controller correctly (Such weird task).(in unit test)

Hmm, are you talking about the 'resolve' property of the route
definition? If so this probably shouldn't be tested in the unit test
(you would be testing the framework in this case). Inside e2e tests
you also wouldn't test it explicitly, as you would verify effect
through UI.

Could you share some code to illustrate what you mean exactly by
"router passes params into controller"?

Cheers,
Pawel

Hey,

I was after the code you are trying to test...
How the AtomDetailsCtrl looks like?

It seems simple but I don't know how

Hey,

The only thing that your controller does atm is this:
$scope.route = $routeParams;

and you could test it (from to of my head):

expect(scope.route).toBeDefined();

The bottom line is that you should be testing only _your_ code and not
the framework internals.

I guess it doesn't address all of your concerns so come back when
you've got more code in your controller.

Cheers,
Pawel

If you want to "unit" test the controller then you should mock up the $routeParams in your test.

If you want to test that the $routeParams are correct for different urls then you can set the current url using $location and then check what the $routeParams are.

great, thanks

Directly test the $routeParams is really good idea. :)

Hi all,

I did not have time to try out this idea. But it seems it does not work for me :( Here's my code:

describe('ng route', function () {

  var $injector = angular.injector();

  beforeEach(module('blog'));

  it('should route to /blog/admin', inject(function ($route, $routeParams, $location) {

    $location.path('/blog/admin');

    dump($route);

    dump($routeParams);

  }));

});

in the console, the dump for $route is all the routes I defined; but the dump for $routeParams is an empty object.

@Peter, I am not sure if I understand you correctly. Please correct me.

Thanks,

David
