Angular - 组件中订阅功能的单元测试

Question

Angular 4 unit test for a subscribe.

I want to test that my subscribe returns an array of Users. I want to mock a list of users and test a function called getUsers .

The subscribe unit test doesnt work. Something wrong with the syntax.

This is my Users interface:

export interface User {
  id: number;
  name: string;
  username: string;
  email: string;
  address: {
    street: string;
    suite: string;
    city: string;
    zipcode: string;
    geo: {
      lat: string;
      lng: string;
    }
  };
  phone: string;
  website: string;
  company: {
    name: string;
    catchPhrase: string;
    bs: string;
  };
};

This is my component I want to test:

import { Component, OnInit } from "@angular/core";
import { Observable } from "rxjs/Observable";

import { UserService } from "../../services/user.service";
import { User } from "../../models/user.model";

@Component({
  selector: "home-users",
  templateUrl: "./home.component.html"
})

export class HomeComponent implements OnInit {
  private listOfUsers: User[];

  constructor(private userService: UserService) {
  }

  ngOnInit() {
    this.getUsers();
  }

  getUsers(): void {
    this.userService.getUsers().subscribe(users => {
      this.listOfUsers = users;
    });
  }
}

This is my unit test attempt:

import { TestBed, async, inject } from "@angular/core/testing";
import { HttpModule } from "@angular/http";

import { HomeComponent } from "./home.component";
import { UserService } from "../../services/user.service";
import { User } from "../../models/user.model";

describe("HomeComponent", () => {
  let userService;
  let homeComponent;
  let fixture;
  let element;

  beforeEach(async(() => {
    TestBed.configureTestingModule({
      declarations: [
        HomeComponent
      ],
      providers: [
        UserService
      ],
      imports: [HttpModule]
    }).compileComponents();
  }));

  beforeEach(inject([UserService], s => {
    userService = s;
    fixture = TestBed.createComponent(HomeComponent);
    homeComponent = fixture.componentInstance;
    element = fixture.nativeElement;
  }));

  it("should call getUsers and return list of users", async(() => {
    // Arrange
    let response: User[] = [];

    // Act
    homeComponent.getUsers();

    fixture.detectChanges();
    fixture.whenStable().subscribe(() => {
        expect(homeComponent.listOfUsers).toEqual(response);
    });
  }));
});

You need this for version rxjs@6 and above. For older rxjs version answer is below:

import { of } from 'rxjs';

it("should call getUsers and return list of users", async(() => {
  const response: User[] = [];

  spyOn(userService, 'getUsers').and.returnValue(of(response))

  homeComponent.getUsers();

  fixture.detectChanges();

  expect(homeComponent.listOfUsers).toEqual(response);
}));

For old rxjs version change import from:

import { of } from 'rxjs';

to

import { of } from 'rxjs/observable/of';

I had similar issue and to make it work I used the arbitrary function (in the following code it's named done ) inside of it

  it("should call getUsers and return list of users", async((done) => {
    // Arrange
    let response: User[] = [];

    // Act
    homeComponent.getUsers();

    fixture.detectChanges();
    fixture.whenStable().subscribe(() => {
        expect(homeComponent.listOfUsers).toEqual(response);
        done();
    });
  }));

in your case you can use fakeAsync also used tick() to detect change. you can add time to tick also to indicate how log to wait. eg tick(1000)

Code is modified from Sharikov Vladislav

import { fakeAsync, getTestBed, TestBed, tick } from '@angular/core/testing';

it("should call getUsers and return list of users", fakeAsync(() => {
  const response: User[] = [];
  spyOn(userService, 'getUsers').and.returnValue(of(response))
  homeComponent.getUsers();
  tick();
  expect(homeComponent.listOfUsers).toEqual(response);
}));
