Description

TestBed is the primary api for writing unit tests for Angular applications and libraries.

Note: Use TestBed in tests. It will be set to either TestBedViewEngine or TestBedRender3 according to the compiler used.

Properties

Property Description
platform: PlatformRef
ngModule: Type<any> | Type<any>[]

Methods

initTestEnvironment()

Initialize the environment for testing with a compiler factory, a PlatformRef, and an angular module. These are common to every test in the suite.

initTestEnvironment(ngModule: Type<any> | Type<any>[], platform: PlatformRef, options?: TestEnvironmentOptions): void

Parameters
ngModule Type | Type []
platform PlatformRef
options TestEnvironmentOptions

Optional. Default is undefined.
Returns

void

initTestEnvironment(ngModule: Type<any> | Type<any>[], platform: PlatformRef, aotSummaries?: () => any[]): void

Parameters
ngModule Type | Type []
platform PlatformRef
aotSummaries () => any[]

Optional. Default is undefined.
Returns

void

This may only be called once, to set up the common providers for the current test suite on the current platform. If you absolutely need to change the providers, first use resetTestEnvironment.

Test modules and platforms for individual platforms are available from '@angular/<platform_name>/testing'.
resetTestEnvironment()

Reset the providers for the test injector.

resetTestEnvironment(): void

Parameters

There are no parameters.

Returns

void
resetTestingModule()

resetTestingModule(): void

Parameters

There are no parameters.

Returns

void
configureCompiler()

configureCompiler(config: { providers?: any[]; useJit?: boolean; }): void

Parameters

configureTestingModule()

configureTestingModule(moduleDef: TestModuleMetadata): void

Parameters

inject()

inject<T>(token: ProviderToken<T>, notFoundValue?: T, flags?: InjectFlags): T

Parameters

notFoundValue T

Optional. Default is undefined.
flags InjectFlags

Optional. Default is undefined.
Returns

T

inject<T>(token: ProviderToken<T>, notFoundValue: null, flags?: InjectFlags): T | null

Parameters
token ProviderToken
notFoundValue null
flags InjectFlags

Optional. Default is undefined.
Returns

T | null
get()

get<T>(token: ProviderToken<T>, notFoundValue?: T, flags?: InjectFlags): any

Deprecated from v9.0.0 use TestBed.inject

Parameters
