I'm trying to test a method that deletes an item from a list after user confirmation.
Controller:
app.controller('mainCtrl', ['$scope', '$window', 'dataService', function($scope, $window, dataService) {
var vm = this;
vm.delete = function(id, index) {
if($window.confirm('Are you sure?')) {
dataService.deleteById(id).then(function() {
vm.list.splice(index, 1)
});
}
};
}]);
Sevice:
app.service('dataService', ['$http', function($http) {
this.deleteById = function(id) {
return $http.delete('delete-item?id=' + id);
};
}]);
Test:
describe('Testing RecipesController', function() {
var scope, ctrl, dataServiceMock, q, deferred, window;
beforeEach(function() {
dataServiceMock = {
deleteById: function() {
deferred = q.defer();
return deferred.promise;
}
};
});
beforeEach(function() {
module('app');
inject(function($rootScope, $controller, $q, $window) {
q = $q;
window = $window;
scope = $rootScope.$new();
ctrl = $controller('mainCtrl', {
$scope: scope,
dataService: dataServiceMock
});
});
});
it('should delete recipe if the user clicked "OK"', function() {
spyOn(window, 'confirm').and.returnValue(true);
spyOn(dataServiceMock, 'deleteById').and.callThrough();
var item= {
id: 2,
name: 'Shirt'
};
ctrl.list = ['Hat', 'Shirt'];
ctrl.delete(item, 1);
expect(dataServiceMock.deleteById).toHaveBeenCalled();
expect(ctrl.list.length).toBe(1);
});
});
I successfully mocked the confirm dialog and the delete method, and the test to check if the method been called even passes.
But, The promise.then() isn't working.
After I run the test I got this message "Expected 2 to be 1".
I see one thing for sure, which is that you never resolve or reject your promise in the data service mock. Try changing the mock to this:
beforeEach(function() {
dataServiceMock = {
deleteById: function() {
deferred = q.defer();
deferred.resolve({ /* whatever data you want to resolve with */ });
return deferred.promise;
// You could also shorten this whole mock function to just:
// return $q.resolve({ /* some data */ });
}
};
});
Also, don't forget to execute the $digest()
function on the $rootScope
at the end of your test... you're actually executing it on your controller's scope, NOT the root scope.
Hold onto the actual $rootScope object - change your beforeEach
to:
var $rScope;
beforeEach(function() {
module('app');
inject(function($rootScope, $controller, $q, $window) {
q = $q;
window = $window;
$rScope = $rootScope;
ctrl = $controller('mainCtrl', {
$scope: $rootScope.$new(),
dataService: dataServiceMock
});
});
});
Then in your test, execute $digest
on the root scope at the end:
it('should delete recipe if the user clicked "OK"', function() {
// all your test codez...
$rScope.$digest();
});
