How do I test Ember.js routes

Question

I want to write a test for my ember.js application that looks something like this but I'm having not having any luck after Googling:

... setup fixtures here ...

App.navigate_to_path('/some_resource')
equal($('#some-element').text(), 'expected value', 'message')

Is this possible or am I approaching this from the wrong direction?

Answer 1

You can create a function like this:

function navigateTo(url) {
  App.__container_.lookup('router:main').handleURL(url);
}
