javascript CustomEvent的茉莉花单元测试

Question

How do I test that a CustomEvent is dispatched in jasmine? When I try running the following code I get the error: "ReferenceError: Can't find variable: CustomEvent".

function testCustomEvent() {
  window.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent('myCustomEvent', {
    detail: 'foo'
  }));
}

describe('testCustomEvent', function() {
  it('dispatches myCustomEvent', function() {
    var eventSpy = jasmine.createSpy();
    window.addEventListener('myCustomEvent', eventSpy);

    testCustomEvent();

    expect(eventSpy).toHaveBeenCalledWith('foo');
  });
});

Answer 1

The expectation is not met because eventSpy is called with { detail: 'foo'}

Also, the arguments passed is a new event object containing values of the parameter sent to the Event constructor. So it's never the same object. You will have to enforce a deep partial equal by using a partial matcher if you're using Jasmine 2.0

expect(eventSpy).toHaveBeenCalledWith(jasmine.objectContaining({
    detail: 'foo'
  }));

Or have a headache if you're using a version below 2.0

Answer 2

I think the only problem with your code is:

You are using toHaveBeenCalledWith method instead of toHaveBeenCalled .

Former is used for checking two things:

1. Expected Method is called
2. Expected Method is called with correct arguments

Try to run your code here - Try Jasmine . After replacing toHaveBeenCalledWith with toHaveBeenCalled .

Note, do not pass any argument to latter.
