组件绑定
Component binding
在范例应用中,BannerComponent
在 HTML 模板中展示了静态的标题文本。
In the example app, the BannerComponent
presents static title text in the HTML template.
在少许更改之后,BannerComponent
就会通过绑定组件的 title
属性来渲染动态标题。
After a few changes, the BannerComponent
presents a dynamic title by binding to the component's title
property like this.
@Component({
selector: 'app-banner',
template: '<h1>{{title}}</h1>',
styles: ['h1 { color: green; font-size: 350%}']
})
export class BannerComponent {
title = 'Test Tour of Heroes';
}
尽管这很小,但你还是决定要添加一个测试来确认该组件实际显示的是你认为合适的内容。
As minimal as this is, you decide to add a test to confirm that component actually displays the right content where you think it should.
查询 <h1> 元素
Query for the <h1>
你将编写一系列测试来检查 <h1>
元素中包裹的 title 属性插值绑定。
You'll write a sequence of tests that inspect the value of the <h1>
element that wraps the title property interpolation binding.
你可以修改 beforeEach
以找到带有标准 HTML querySelector
的元素,并把它赋值给 h1
变量。
You update the beforeEach
to find that element with a standard HTML querySelector
and assign it to the h1
variable.
let component: BannerComponent;
let fixture: ComponentFixture<BannerComponent>;
let h1: HTMLElement;
beforeEach(async () => {
await TestBed.configureTestingModule({
declarations: [ BannerComponent ],
});
fixture = TestBed.createComponent(BannerComponent);
component = fixture.componentInstance; // BannerComponent test instance
h1 = fixture.nativeElement.querySelector('h1');
});
createComponent() 不绑定数据
createComponent() does not bind data
对于你的第一个测试,你希望屏幕上显示默认的 title
。你的直觉就是编写一个能立即检查 <h1>
的测试,就像这样:
For your first test you'd like to see that the screen displays the default title
. Your instinct is to write a test that immediately inspects the <h1>
like this:
it('should display original title', () => {
expect(h1.textContent).toContain(component.title);
});
那个测试失败了:
That test fails with the message:
expected '' to contain 'Test Tour of Heroes'.
当 Angular 执行变更检测时就会发生绑定。
Binding happens when Angular performs change detection.
在生产环境中,当 Angular 创建一个组件,或者用户输入按键,或者异步活动(比如 AJAX)完成时,就会自动进行变更检测。
In production, change detection kicks in automatically when Angular creates a component or the user enters a keystroke or an asynchronous activity (e.g., AJAX) completes.
该 TestBed.createComponent
不会触发变化检测,修改后的测试可以证实这一点:
The TestBed.createComponent
does not trigger change detection; a fact confirmed in the revised test:
it('no title in the DOM after createComponent()', () => {
expect(h1.textContent).toEqual('');
});
detectChanges()
你必须通过调用 fixture.detectChanges()
来告诉 TestBed
执行数据绑定。只有这样, <h1>
才能拥有预期的标题。
You must tell the TestBed
to perform data binding by calling fixture.detectChanges()
. Only then does the <h1>
have the expected title.
it('should display original title after detectChanges()', () => {
fixture.detectChanges();
expect(h1.textContent).toContain(component.title);
});
这里延迟变更检测时机是故意而且有用的。这样才能让测试者在 Angular 启动数据绑定并调用生命周期钩子之前,查看并更改组件的状态。
Delayed change detection is intentional and useful. It gives the tester an opportunity to inspect and change the state of the component before Angular initiates data binding and calls lifecycle hooks.
这是另一个测试,它会在调用 fixture.detectChanges()
之前改变组件的 title
属性。
Here's another test that changes the component's title
property before calling fixture.detectChanges()
.
it('should display a different test title', () => {
component.title = 'Test Title';
fixture.detectChanges();
expect(h1.textContent).toContain('Test Title');
});
自动变更检测
Automatic change detection
BannerComponent
测试会经常调用 detectChanges
。一些测试人员更喜欢让 Angular 测试环境自动运行变更检测。
The BannerComponent
tests frequently call detectChanges
. Some testers prefer that the Angular test environment run change detection automatically.
可以通过配置带有 ComponentFixtureAutoDetect
提供者的 TestBed
来实现这一点。我们首先从测试工具函数库中导入它:
That's possible by configuring the TestBed
with the ComponentFixtureAutoDetect
provider. First import it from the testing utility library:
import { ComponentFixtureAutoDetect } from '@angular/core/testing';
然后把它添加到测试模块配置的 providers
中:
Then add it to the providers
array of the testing module configuration:
TestBed.configureTestingModule({
declarations: [ BannerComponent ],
providers: [
{ provide: ComponentFixtureAutoDetect, useValue: true }
]
});
这里有三个测试来说明自动变更检测是如何工作的。
Here are three tests that illustrate how automatic change detection works.
it('should display original title', () => {
// Hooray! No `fixture.detectChanges()` needed
expect(h1.textContent).toContain(comp.title);
});
it('should still see original title after comp.title change', () => {
const oldTitle = comp.title;
comp.title = 'Test Title';
// Displayed title is old because Angular didn't hear the change :(
expect(h1.textContent).toContain(oldTitle);
});
it('should display updated title after detectChanges', () => {
comp.title = 'Test Title';
fixture.detectChanges(); // detect changes explicitly
expect(h1.textContent).toContain(comp.title);
});
第一个测试显示了自动变更检测的优点。
The first test shows the benefit of automatic change detection.
第二个和第三个测试则揭示了一个重要的限制。该 Angular 测试环境不知道测试改变了组件的 title
。 ComponentFixtureAutoDetect
服务会响应异步活动,例如 Promise、定时器和 DOM 事件。但却看不见对组件属性的直接同步更新。该测试必须用 fixture.detectChanges()
来触发另一个变更检测周期。
The second and third test reveal an important limitation. The Angular testing environment does not know that the test changed the component's title
. The ComponentFixtureAutoDetect
service responds to asynchronous activities such as promise resolution, timers, and DOM events. But a direct, synchronous update of the component property is invisible. The test must call fixture.detectChanges()
manually to trigger another cycle of change detection.
本指南中的范例总是会显式调用 detectChanges()
,而不用困惑于测试夹具何时会或不会执行变更检测。更频繁的调用 detectChanges()
毫无危害,没必要只在非常必要时才调用它。
Rather than wonder when the test fixture will or won't perform change detection, the samples in this guide always call detectChanges()
explicitly. There is no harm in calling detectChanges()
more often than is strictly necessary.
使用 dispatchEvent() 改变输入框的值
Change an input value with dispatchEvent()
要模拟用户输入,你可以找到 input 元素并设置它的 value
属性。
To simulate user input, you can find the input element and set its value
property.
你会调用 fixture.detectChanges()
来触发 Angular 的变更检测。但还有一个重要的中间步骤。
You will call fixture.detectChanges()
to trigger Angular's change detection. But there is an essential, intermediate step.
Angular 并不知道你为 input 设置过 value
属性。在通过调用 dispatchEvent()
分发 input
事件之前,它不会读取该属性。紧接着你就调用了 detectChanges()
。
Angular doesn't know that you set the input element's value
property. It won't read that property until you raise the element's input
event by calling dispatchEvent()
. Then you call detectChanges()
.
下列例子说明了正确的顺序。
The following example demonstrates the proper sequence.
it('should convert hero name to Title Case', () => {
// get the name's input and display elements from the DOM
const hostElement = fixture.nativeElement;
const nameInput: HTMLInputElement = hostElement.querySelector('input');
const nameDisplay: HTMLElement = hostElement.querySelector('span');
// simulate user entering a new name into the input box
nameInput.value = 'quick BROWN fOx';
// Dispatch a DOM event so that Angular learns of input value change.
// In older browsers, such as IE, you might need a CustomEvent instead. See
// https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CustomEvent/CustomEvent#Polyfill
nameInput.dispatchEvent(new Event('input'));
// Tell Angular to update the display binding through the title pipe
fixture.detectChanges();
expect(nameDisplay.textContent).toBe('Quick Brown Fox');
});
包含外部文件的组件
Component with external files
上面的 BannerComponent
是用内联模板和内联 css 定义的,它们分别是在 @Component.template
和 @Component.styles
属性中指定的。
The BannerComponent
above is defined with an inline template and inline css, specified in the @Component.template
and @Component.styles
properties respectively.
很多组件都会分别用 @Component.templateUrl
和 @Component.styleUrls
属性来指定外部模板和外部 css,就像下面的 BannerComponent
变体一样。
Many components specify external templates and external css with the @Component.templateUrl
and @Component.styleUrls
properties respectively, as the following variant of BannerComponent
does.
@Component({
selector: 'app-banner',
templateUrl: './banner-external.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./banner-external.component.css']
})
这个语法告诉 Angular 编译器要在组件编译时读取外部文件。
This syntax tells the Angular compiler to read the external files during component compilation.
当运行 ng test
命令时,这不是问题,因为它会在运行测试之前编译应用。
That's not a problem when you run the CLI ng test
command because it compiles the app before running the tests.
但是,如果在非 CLI 环境中运行这些测试,那么这个组件的测试可能会失败。例如,如果你在一个 web 编程环境(比如 plunker 中运行 BannerComponent
测试,你会看到如下消息:
However, if you run the tests in a non-CLI environment, tests of this component may fail. For example, if you run the BannerComponent
tests in a web coding environment such as plunker, you'll see a message like this one:
Error: This test module uses the component BannerComponent
which is using a "templateUrl" or "styleUrls", but they were never compiled.
Please call "TestBed.compileComponents" before your test.
当运行环境在测试过程中需要编译源代码时,就会得到这条测试失败的消息。
You get this test failure message when the runtime environment compiles the source code during the tests themselves.
要解决这个问题,可以调用 compileComponents()
,如下所示。
To correct the problem, call compileComponents()
as explained below.
具有依赖的组件
Component with a dependency
组件通常都有服务依赖。
Components often have service dependencies.
WelcomeComponent
会向登录用户显示一条欢迎信息。它可以基于注入进来的 UserService
的一个属性了解到用户是谁:
The WelcomeComponent
displays a welcome message to the logged in user. It knows who the user is based on a property of the injected UserService
:
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { UserService } from '../model/user.service';
@Component({
selector: 'app-welcome',
template: '<h3 class="welcome"><i>{{welcome}}</i></h3>'
})
export class WelcomeComponent implements OnInit {
welcome: string;
constructor(private userService: UserService) { }
ngOnInit(): void {
this.welcome = this.userService.isLoggedIn ?
'Welcome, ' + this.userService.user.name : 'Please log in.';
}
}
WelcomeComponent
拥有与该服务交互的决策逻辑,该逻辑让这个组件值得测试。这是 spec 文件的测试模块配置:
The WelcomeComponent
has decision logic that interacts with the service, logic that makes this component worth testing. Here's the testing module configuration for the spec file:
TestBed.configureTestingModule({
declarations: [ WelcomeComponent ],
// providers: [ UserService ], // NO! Don't provide the real service!
// Provide a test-double instead
providers: [ { provide: UserService, useValue: userServiceStub } ],
});
这次,除了声明被测组件外,该配置还在 providers
列表中加入了 UserService
提供者。但它不是真正的 UserService
。
This time, in addition to declaring the component-under-test, the configuration adds a UserService
provider to the providers
list. But not the real UserService
.
为服务提供测试替身
Provide service test doubles
待测组件不必注入真正的服务。事实上,如果它们是测试替身(stubs,fakes,spies 或 mocks),通常会更好。该测试规约的目的是测试组件,而不是服务,使用真正的服务可能会遇到麻烦。
A component-under-test doesn't have to be injected with real services. In fact, it is usually better if they are test doubles (stubs, fakes, spies, or mocks). The purpose of the spec is to test the component, not the service, and real services can be trouble.
注入真正的 UserService
可能是个噩梦。真正的服务可能要求用户提供登录凭据,并尝试访问认证服务器。这些行为可能难以拦截。为它创建并注册一个测试专用版来代替真正的 UserService
要容易得多,也更安全。
Injecting the real UserService
could be a nightmare. The real service might ask the user for login credentials and attempt to reach an authentication server. These behaviors can be hard to intercept. It is far easier and safer to create and register a test double in place of the real UserService
.
这个特定的测试套件提供了 UserService
的最小化模拟,它满足了 WelcomeComponent
及其测试的需求:
This particular test suite supplies a minimal mock of the UserService
that satisfies the needs of the WelcomeComponent
and its tests:
let userServiceStub: Partial<UserService>;
userServiceStub = {
isLoggedIn: true,
user: { name: 'Test User' },
};
取得所注入的服务
Get injected services
这些测试需要访问注入到 WelcomeComponent
中的 UserService
桩。
The tests need access to the (stub) UserService
injected into the WelcomeComponent
.
Angular 有一个分层注入系统。它具有多个层级的注入器,从 TestBed
创建的根注入器开始,直到组件树中的各个层级。
Angular has a hierarchical injection system. There can be injectors at multiple levels, from the root injector created by the TestBed
down through the component tree.
获得注入服务的最安全的方式(始终有效),就是从被测组件的注入器中获取它。组件注入器是测试夹具所提供的 DebugElement
中的一个属性。
The safest way to get the injected service, the way that always works, is to get it from the injector of the component-under-test. The component injector is a property of the fixture's DebugElement
.
// UserService actually injected into the component
userService = fixture.debugElement.injector.get(UserService);
TestBed.inject()
你可能还可以通过 TestBed.inject()
来从根注入器获得服务。这更容易记忆,也不那么啰嗦。但这只有当 Angular 要把根注入器中的服务实例注入测试组件时才是可行的。
You may also be able to get the service from the root injector via TestBed.inject()
. This is easier to remember and less verbose. But it only works when Angular injects the component with the service instance in the test's root injector.
在下面这个测试套件中, UserService
唯一的提供者是根测试模块,因此可以安全地调用 TestBed.inject()
,如下所示:
In this test suite, the only provider of UserService
is the root testing module, so it is safe to call TestBed.inject()
as follows:
// UserService from the root injector
userService = TestBed.inject(UserService);
TestBed.inject()
不起作用的用例,参阅“覆盖组件提供者”部分,它解释了何时以及为什么必须从该组件自身的注入器中获取该服务。
For a use case in which TestBed.inject()
does not work, see the Override component providers section that explains when and why you must get the service from the component's injector instead.
最后的设置与测试
Final setup and tests
这里是完成的 beforeEach()
,它使用了 TestBed.inject()
:
Here's the complete beforeEach()
, using TestBed.inject()
:
let userServiceStub: Partial<UserService>;
beforeEach(() => {
// stub UserService for test purposes
userServiceStub = {
isLoggedIn: true,
user: { name: 'Test User' },
};
TestBed.configureTestingModule({
declarations: [ WelcomeComponent ],
providers: [ { provide: UserService, useValue: userServiceStub } ],
});
fixture = TestBed.createComponent(WelcomeComponent);
comp = fixture.componentInstance;
// UserService from the root injector
userService = TestBed.inject(UserService);
// get the "welcome" element by CSS selector (e.g., by class name)
el = fixture.nativeElement.querySelector('.welcome');
});
以下是一些测试:
And here are some tests:
it('should welcome the user', () => {
fixture.detectChanges();
const content = el.textContent;
expect(content).toContain('Welcome', '"Welcome ..."');
expect(content).toContain('Test User', 'expected name');
});
it('should welcome "Bubba"', () => {
userService.user.name = 'Bubba'; // welcome message hasn't been shown yet
fixture.detectChanges();
expect(el.textContent).toContain('Bubba');
});
it('should request login if not logged in', () => {
userService.isLoggedIn = false; // welcome message hasn't been shown yet
fixture.detectChanges();
const content = el.textContent;
expect(content).not.toContain('Welcome', 'not welcomed');
expect(content).toMatch(/log in/i, '"log in"');
});
首先是一个健全性测试;它确认了桩服务 UserService
被调用过并能正常工作。
The first is a sanity test; it confirms that the stubbed UserService
is called and working.
Jasmine 匹配器的第二个参数(例如 'expected name'
)是一个可选的失败标签。如果此期望失败,Jasmine 就会把这个标签贴到期望失败的消息中。在具有多个期望的测试规约中,它可以帮我们澄清出现了什么问题以及都有哪些期望失败了。
The second parameter to the Jasmine matcher (e.g., 'expected name'
) is an optional failure label. If the expectation fails, Jasmine appends this label to the expectation failure message. In a spec with multiple expectations, it can help clarify what went wrong and which expectation failed.
当该服务返回不同的值时,其余的测试会确认该组件的逻辑。第二个测试验证了更改用户名的效果。当用户未登录时,第三个测试会检查组件是否显示了正确的消息。
The remaining tests confirm the logic of the component when the service returns different values. The second test validates the effect of changing the user name. The third test checks that the component displays the proper message when there is no logged-in user.
带异步服务的组件
Component with async service
在这个例子中,AboutComponent
模板托管了一个 TwainComponent
。TwainComponent
会显示马克·吐温的名言。
In this sample, the AboutComponent
template hosts a TwainComponent
. The TwainComponent
displays Mark Twain quotes.
template: `
<p class="twain"><i>{{quote | async}}</i></p>
<button (click)="getQuote()">Next quote</button>
<p class="error" *ngIf="errorMessage">{{ errorMessage }}</p>`,
注意,组件的 quote
属性值会传给 AsyncPipe
。这意味着该属性返回了 Promise
或 Observable
。
Note that the value of the component's quote
property passes through an AsyncPipe
. That means the property returns either a Promise
or an Observable
.
在这个例子中, TwainComponent.getQuote()
方法告诉你 quote
属性会返回一个 Observable
。
In this example, the TwainComponent.getQuote()
method tells you that the quote
property returns an Observable
.
getQuote() {
this.errorMessage = '';
this.quote = this.twainService.getQuote().pipe(
startWith('...'),
catchError( (err: any) => {
// Wait a turn because errorMessage already set once this turn
setTimeout(() => this.errorMessage = err.message || err.toString());
return of('...'); // reset message to placeholder
})
);
该 TwainComponent
从注入的 TwainService
中获取名言。该在服务能返回第一条名言之前,该服务会先返回一个占位流('...'
)。
The TwainComponent
gets quotes from an injected TwainService
. The component starts the returned Observable
with a placeholder value ('...'
), before the service can return its first quote.
catchError
会拦截服务错误,准备一条错误信息,并在流的成功通道上返回占位值。它必须等一拍(tick)才能设置 errorMessage
,以免在同一个更改检测周期内更新此消息两次。
The catchError
intercepts service errors, prepares an error message, and returns the placeholder value on the success channel. It must wait a tick to set the errorMessage
in order to avoid updating that message twice in the same change detection cycle.
这些都是你想要测试的特性。
These are all features you'll want to test.
使用间谍(spy)进行测试
Testing with a spy
在测试组件时,只有该服务的公开 API 才有意义。通常,测试本身不应该调用远程服务器。它们应该模拟这样的调用。这个 app/twain/twain.component.spec.ts
中的环境准备工作展示了一种方法:
When testing a component, only the service's public API should matter. In general, tests themselves should not make calls to remote servers. They should emulate such calls. The setup in this app/twain/twain.component.spec.ts
shows one way to do that:
beforeEach(() => {
testQuote = 'Test Quote';
// Create a fake TwainService object with a `getQuote()` spy
const twainService = jasmine.createSpyObj('TwainService', ['getQuote']);
// Make the spy return a synchronous Observable with the test data
getQuoteSpy = twainService.getQuote.and.returnValue(of(testQuote));
TestBed.configureTestingModule({
declarations: [TwainComponent],
providers: [{provide: TwainService, useValue: twainService}]
});
fixture = TestBed.createComponent(TwainComponent);
component = fixture.componentInstance;
quoteEl = fixture.nativeElement.querySelector('.twain');
});
仔细看一下这个间谍。
Focus on the spy.
// Create a fake TwainService object with a `getQuote()` spy
const twainService = jasmine.createSpyObj('TwainService', ['getQuote']);
// Make the spy return a synchronous Observable with the test data
getQuoteSpy = twainService.getQuote.and.returnValue(of(testQuote));
这个间谍的设计目标是让所有对 getQuote
的调用都会收到一个带有测试名言的可观察对象。与真正的 getQuote()
方法不同,这个间谍会绕过服务器,并返回一个立即同步提供可用值的可观察对象。
The spy is designed such that any call to getQuote
receives an observable with a test quote. Unlike the real getQuote()
method, this spy bypasses the server and returns a synchronous observable whose value is available immediately.
虽然这个 Observable
是同步的,但你也可以用这个间谍编写很多有用的测试。
You can write many useful tests with this spy, even though its Observable
is synchronous.
同步测试
Synchronous tests
同步 Observable
的一个关键优势是,你通常可以把异步过程转换成同步测试。
A key advantage of a synchronous Observable
is that you can often turn asynchronous processes into synchronous tests.
it('should show quote after component initialized', () => {
fixture.detectChanges(); // onInit()
// sync spy result shows testQuote immediately after init
expect(quoteEl.textContent).toBe(testQuote);
expect(getQuoteSpy.calls.any()).toBe(true, 'getQuote called');
});
当间谍的结果同步返回时, getQuote()
方法会在第一个更改检测周期(Angular 在这里调用 ngOnInit
)后立即更新屏幕上的消息。
Because the spy result returns synchronously, the getQuote()
method updates the message on screen immediately after the first change detection cycle during which Angular calls ngOnInit
.
你在测试错误路径时就没有这么幸运了。虽然服务间谍会同步返回一个错误,但该组件方法会调用 setTimeout()
。在值可用之前,测试必须等待 JavaScript 引擎的至少一个周期。因此,该测试必须是异步的。
You're not so lucky when testing the error path. Although the service spy will return an error synchronously, the component method calls setTimeout()
. The test must wait at least one full turn of the JavaScript engine before the value becomes available. The test must become asynchronous.
使用 fakeAsync() 进行异步测试
Async test with fakeAsync()
要使用 fakeAsync()
功能,你必须在测试的环境设置文件中导入 zone.js/testing
。如果是用 Angular CLI 创建的项目,那么其 src/test.ts
中已经配置好了 zone-testing
。
To use fakeAsync()
functionality, you must import zone.js/testing
in your test setup file. If you created your project with the Angular CLI, zone-testing
is already imported in src/test.ts
.
当该服务返回 ErrorObservable
时,下列测试会对其预期行为进行确认。
The following test confirms the expected behavior when the service returns an ErrorObservable
.
it('should display error when TwainService fails', fakeAsync(() => {
// tell spy to return an error observable
getQuoteSpy.and.returnValue(throwError('TwainService test failure'));
fixture.detectChanges(); // onInit()
// sync spy errors immediately after init
tick(); // flush the component's setTimeout()
fixture.detectChanges(); // update errorMessage within setTimeout()
expect(errorMessage()).toMatch(/test failure/, 'should display error');
expect(quoteEl.textContent).toBe('...', 'should show placeholder');
}));
注意, it()
函数会要求如下形式的参数。
Note that the it()
function receives an argument of the following form.
fakeAsync(() => { /* test body */ })
通过在一个特殊的 fakeAsync test zone
(译注:Zone.js 的一个特例) 中运行测试体,fakeAsync()
函数可以启用线性编码风格。这个测试体看上去是同步的。没有像 Promise.then()
这样的嵌套语法来破坏控制流。
The fakeAsync()
function enables a linear coding style by running the test body in a special fakeAsync test zone
. The test body appears to be synchronous. There is no nested syntax (like a Promise.then()
) to disrupt the flow of control.
限制:如果测试体要进行 XMLHttpRequest
(XHR)调用,则 fakeAsync()
函数无效。很少会需要在测试中进行 XHR 调用,但如果你确实要这么做,请参阅下面的 waitForAsync()
部分。
Limitation: The fakeAsync()
function won't work if the test body makes an XMLHttpRequest
(XHR) call. XHR calls within a test are rare, but if you need to call XHR, see waitForAsync()
, below.
tick() 函数
The tick() function
你必须调用 tick() 来推进(虚拟)时钟。
You do have to call tick() to advance the (virtual) clock.
调用 tick() 时会在所有挂起的异步活动完成之前模拟时间的流逝。在这种情况下,它会等待错误处理程序中的 setTimeout()
。
Calling tick() simulates the passage of time until all pending asynchronous activities finish. In this case, it waits for the error handler's setTimeout()
.
tick() 函数接受毫秒数(milliseconds) 和 tick 选项(tickOptions) 作为参数,毫秒数(默认值为 0)参数表示虚拟时钟要前进多少。比如,如果你在 fakeAsync()
测试中有一个 setTimeout(fn, 100)
,你就需要使用 tick(100) 来触发其 fn 回调。 tickOptions 是一个可选参数,它带有一个名为 processNewMacroTasksSynchronously
的属性(默认为 true),表示在 tick 时是否要调用新生成的宏任务。
The tick() function accepts milliseconds and tickOptions as parameters, the millisecond (defaults to 0 if not provided) parameter represents how much the virtual clock advances. For example, if you have a setTimeout(fn, 100)
in a fakeAsync()
test, you need to use tick(100) to trigger the fn callback. The tickOptions is an optional parameter with a property called processNewMacroTasksSynchronously
(defaults to true) that represents whether to invoke new generated macro tasks when ticking.
it('should run timeout callback with delay after call tick with millis', fakeAsync(() => {
let called = false;
setTimeout(() => {
called = true;
}, 100);
tick(100);
expect(called).toBe(true);
}));
tick() 函数是你用 TestBed
导入的 Angular 测试工具函数之一。它是 fakeAsync()
的伴生工具,你只能在 fakeAsync()
测试体内调用它。
The tick() function is one of the Angular testing utilities that you import with TestBed
. It's a companion to fakeAsync()
and you can only call it within a fakeAsync()
body.
tickOptions
it('should run new macro task callback with delay after call tick with millis',
fakeAsync(() => {
function nestedTimer(cb: () => any): void {
setTimeout(() => setTimeout(() => cb()));
}
const callback = jasmine.createSpy('callback');
nestedTimer(callback);
expect(callback).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
tick(0);
// the nested timeout will also be triggered
expect(callback).toHaveBeenCalled();
}));
在这个例子中,我们有一个新的宏任务(嵌套的 setTimeout),默认情况下,当我们 tick
时 的 setTimeout 的 outside
和 nested
都会被触发。
In this example, we have a new macro task (nested setTimeout), by default, when we tick
, the setTimeout outside
and nested
will both be triggered.
it('should not run new macro task callback with delay after call tick with millis',
fakeAsync(() => {
function nestedTimer(cb: () => any): void {
setTimeout(() => setTimeout(() => cb()));
}
const callback = jasmine.createSpy('callback');
nestedTimer(callback);
expect(callback).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
tick(0, {processNewMacroTasksSynchronously: false});
// the nested timeout will not be triggered
expect(callback).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
tick(0);
expect(callback).toHaveBeenCalled();
}));
在某种情况下,我们不希望在 tick 时触发新的宏任务,我们可以使用 tick(milliseconds, {processNewMacroTasksSynchronously: false})
来要求不调用新的宏任务。
And in some case, we don't want to trigger the new macro task when ticking, we can use tick(milliseconds, {processNewMacroTasksSynchronously: false})
to not invoke new macro task.
比较 fakeAsync() 内部的日期
Comparing dates inside fakeAsync()
fakeAsync()
可以模拟时间的流逝,以便让你计算出 fakeAsync()
里面的日期差。
fakeAsync()
simulates passage of time, which allows you to calculate the difference between dates inside fakeAsync()
.
it('should get Date diff correctly in fakeAsync', fakeAsync(() => {
const start = Date.now();
tick(100);
const end = Date.now();
expect(end - start).toBe(100);
}));
jasmine.clock 与 fakeAsync() 联用
jasmine.clock with fakeAsync()
Jasmine 还为模拟日期提供了 clock
特性。而 Angular 会在 jasmine.clock().install()
于 fakeAsync()
方法内调用时自动运行这些测试。直到调用了 jasmine.clock().uninstall()
为止。 fakeAsync()
不是必须的,如果嵌套它就抛出错误。
Jasmine also provides a clock
feature to mock dates. Angular automatically runs tests that are run after jasmine.clock().install()
is called inside a fakeAsync()
method until jasmine.clock().uninstall()
is called. fakeAsync()
is not needed and throws an error if nested.
默认情况下,此功能处于禁用状态。要启用它,请在导入 zone-testing
之前先设置全局标志。
By default, this feature is disabled. To enable it, set a global flag before importing zone-testing
.
如果你使用的是 Angular CLI,请在 src/test.ts
中配置这个标志。
If you use the Angular CLI, configure this flag in src/test.ts
.
(window as any)['__zone_symbol__fakeAsyncPatchLock'] = true;
import 'zone.js/testing';
describe('use jasmine.clock()', () => {

});
在 fakeAsync()
中使用 RxJS 调度器
Using the RxJS scheduler inside fakeAsync()
fakeAsync()
使用 RxJS 的调度器,就像使用 setTimeout()
或 setInterval()
一样,但你需要导入 zone.js/plugins/zone-patch-rxjs-fake-async
来给 RxJS 调度器打补丁。
You can also use RxJS scheduler in fakeAsync()
just like using setTimeout()
or setInterval()
, but you need to import zone.js/plugins/zone-patch-rxjs-fake-async
to patch RxJS scheduler.
it('should get Date diff correctly in fakeAsync with rxjs scheduler', fakeAsync(() => {
// need to add `import 'zone.js/plugins/zone-patch-rxjs-fake-async'
// to patch rxjs scheduler
let result = null;
of('hello').pipe(delay(1000)).subscribe(v => {
result = v;
});
expect(result).toBeNull();
tick(1000);
expect(result).toBe('hello');
const start = new Date().getTime();
let dateDiff = 0;
interval(1000).pipe(take(2)).subscribe(() => dateDiff = (new Date().getTime() - start));
tick(1000);
expect(dateDiff).toBe(1000);
tick(1000);
expect(dateDiff).toBe(2000);
}));
支持更多的 macroTasks
Support more macroTasks
fakeAsync()
默认支持以下宏任务:
By default, fakeAsync()
supports the following macro tasks.
setTimeout
setInterval
requestAnimationFrame
webkitRequestAnimationFrame
mozRequestAnimationFrame
如果你运行其他宏任务,比如 HTMLCanvasElement.toBlob()
,就会抛出 "Unknown macroTask scheduled in fake async test" 错误。*
If you run other macro tasks such as HTMLCanvasElement.toBlob()
, an "Unknown macroTask scheduled in fake async test" error will be thrown.
import { fakeAsync, TestBed, tick } from '@angular/core/testing';
import { CanvasComponent } from './canvas.component';
describe('CanvasComponent', () => {
beforeEach(async () => {
await TestBed
.configureTestingModule({
declarations: [CanvasComponent],
})
.compileComponents();
});
it('should be able to generate blob data from canvas', fakeAsync(() => {
const fixture = TestBed.createComponent(CanvasComponent);
const canvasComp = fixture.componentInstance;
fixture.detectChanges();
expect(canvasComp.blobSize).toBe(0);
tick();
expect(canvasComp.blobSize).toBeGreaterThan(0);
}));
});
如果你想支持这种情况,就要在 beforeEach()
定义你要支持的宏任务。例如:
If you want to support such a case, you need to define the macro task you want to support in beforeEach()
. For example:
beforeEach(() => {
(window as any).__zone_symbol__FakeAsyncTestMacroTask = [
{
source: 'HTMLCanvasElement.toBlob',
callbackArgs: [{size: 200}],
},
];
});
注意,要在依赖 Zone.js 的应用中使用 <canvas>
元素,你需要导入 zone-patch-canvas
补丁(或者在 polyfills.ts
中,或者在用到 <canvas>
的那个文件中):
Note that in order to make the <canvas>
element Zone.js-aware in your app, you need to import the zone-patch-canvas
patch (either in polyfills.ts
or in the specific file that uses <canvas>
):
// Import patch to make async `HTMLCanvasElement` methods (such as `.toBlob()`) Zone.js-aware.
// Either import in `polyfills.ts` (if used in more than one places in the app) or in the component
// file using `HTMLCanvasElement` (if it is only used in a single file).
import 'zone.js/plugins/zone-patch-canvas';
异步可观察对象
Async observables
你可能已经对前面这些测试的测试覆盖率感到满意。
You might be satisfied with the test coverage of these tests.
但是,你可能也会为另一个事实感到不安:真实的服务并不是这样工作的。真实的服务会向远程服务器发送请求。服务器需要一定的时间才能做出响应,并且其响应体肯定不会像前面两个测试中一样是立即可用的。
However, you might be troubled by the fact that the real service doesn't quite behave this way. The real service sends requests to a remote server. A server takes time to respond and the response certainly won't be available immediately as in the previous two tests.
如果能像下面这样从 getQuote()
间谍中返回一个异步的可观察对象,你的测试就会更真实地反映现实世界。
Your tests will reflect the real world more faithfully if you return an asynchronous observable from the getQuote()
spy like this.
// Simulate delayed observable values with the `asyncData()` helper
getQuoteSpy.and.returnValue(asyncData(testQuote));
异步可观察对象测试助手
Async observable helpers
异步可观察对象可以由测试助手 asyncData
生成。测试助手 asyncData
是一个你必须自行编写的工具函数,当然也可以从下面的范例代码中复制它。
The async observable was produced by an asyncData
helper. The asyncData
helper is a utility function that you'll have to write yourself, or you can copy this one from the sample code.
/**
* Create async observable that emits-once and completes
* after a JS engine turn
*/
export function asyncData<T>(data: T) {
return defer(() => Promise.resolve(data));
}
这个助手返回的可观察对象会在 JavaScript 引擎的下一个周期中发送 data
值。
This helper's observable emits the data
value in the next turn of the JavaScript engine.
RxJS 的 defer()
操作符返回一个可观察对象。它的参数是一个返回 Promise 或可观察对象的工厂函数。当某个订阅者订阅 defer 生成的可观察对象时,defer 就会调用此工厂函数生成新的可观察对象,并让该订阅者订阅这个新对象。
The RxJS defer()
operator returns an observable. It takes a factory function that returns either a promise or an observable. When something subscribes to defer's observable, it adds the subscriber to a new observable created with that factory.
defer()
操作符会把 Promise.resolve()
转换成一个新的可观察对象,它和 HttpClient
一样只会发送一次然后立即结束(complete)。这样,当订阅者收到数据后就会自动取消订阅。
The defer()
operator transforms the Promise.resolve()
into a new observable that, like HttpClient
, emits once and completes. Subscribers are unsubscribed after they receive the data value.
还有一个类似的用来生成异步错误的测试助手。
There's a similar helper for producing an async error.
/**
* Create async observable error that errors
* after a JS engine turn
*/
export function asyncError<T>(errorObject: any) {
return defer(() => Promise.reject(errorObject));
}
更多异步测试
More async tests
现在,getQuote()
间谍正在返回异步可观察对象,你的大多数测试都必须是异步的。
Now that the getQuote()
spy is returning async observables, most of your tests will have to be async as well.
下面是一个 fakeAsync()
测试,用于演示你在真实世界中所期望的数据流。
Here's a fakeAsync()
test that demonstrates the data flow you'd expect in the real world.
it('should show quote after getQuote (fakeAsync)', fakeAsync(() => {
fixture.detectChanges(); // ngOnInit()
expect(quoteEl.textContent).toBe('...', 'should show placeholder');
tick(); // flush the observable to get the quote
fixture.detectChanges(); // update view
expect(quoteEl.textContent).toBe(testQuote, 'should show quote');
expect(errorMessage()).toBeNull('should not show error');
}));
注意,quote 元素会在 ngOnInit()
之后显示占位符 '...'
。因为第一句名言尚未到来。
Notice that the quote element displays the placeholder value ('...'
) after ngOnInit()
. The first quote hasn't arrived yet.
要清除可观察对象中的第一句名言,你可以调用 tick() 。然后调用 detectChanges()
来告诉 Angular 更新屏幕。
To flush the first quote from the observable, you call tick(). Then call detectChanges()
to tell Angular to update the screen.
然后,你可以断言 quote 元素是否显示了预期的文本。
Then you can assert that the quote element displays the expected text.
用 waitForAsync() 进行异步测试
Async test with waitForAsync()
要使用 waitForAsync()
函数,你必须在 test 的设置文件中导入 zone.js/testing
。如果你是用 Angular CLI 创建的项目,那就已经在 src/test.ts
中导入过 zone-testing
了。
To use waitForAsync()
functionality, you must import zone.js/testing
in your test setup file. If you created your project with the Angular CLI, zone-testing
is already imported in src/test.ts
.
这是之前的 fakeAsync()
测试,用 waitForAsync()
工具函数重写的版本。
Here's the previous fakeAsync()
test, re-written with the waitForAsync()
utility.
it('should show quote after getQuote (waitForAsync)', waitForAsync(() => {
fixture.detectChanges(); // ngOnInit()
expect(quoteEl.textContent).toBe('...', 'should show placeholder');
fixture.whenStable().then(() => { // wait for async getQuote
fixture.detectChanges(); // update view with quote
expect(quoteEl.textContent).toBe(testQuote);
expect(errorMessage()).toBeNull('should not show error');
});
}));
waitForAsync()
工具函数通过把测试代码安排到在特殊的异步测试区(async test zone)下运行来隐藏某些用来处理异步的样板代码。你不需要把 Jasmine 的 done()
传给测试并让测试调用 done()
,因为它在 Promise 或者可观察对象的回调函数中是 undefined
。
The waitForAsync()
utility hides some asynchronous boilerplate by arranging for the tester's code to run in a special async test zone. You don't need to pass Jasmine's done()
into the test and call done()
because it is undefined
in promise or observable callbacks.
但是,可以通过调用 fixture.whenStable()
函数来揭示本测试的异步性,因为该函数打破了线性的控制流。
But the test's asynchronous nature is revealed by the call to fixture.whenStable()
, which breaks the linear flow of control.
在 waitForAsync()
中使用 intervalTimer()
(比如 setInterval()
)时,别忘了在测试后通过 clearInterval()
取消这个定时器,否则 waitForAsync()
永远不会结束。
When using an intervalTimer()
such as setInterval()
in waitForAsync()
, remember to cancel the timer with clearInterval()
after the test, otherwise the waitForAsync()
never ends.
whenStable
测试必须等待 getQuote()
可观察对象发出下一句名言。它并没有调用 tick(),而是调用了 fixture.whenStable()
。
The test must wait for the getQuote()
observable to emit the next quote. Instead of calling tick(), it calls fixture.whenStable()
.
fixture.whenStable()
返回一个 Promise,它会在 JavaScript 引擎的任务队列变空时解析。在这个例子中,当可观察对象发出第一句名言时,任务队列就会变为空。
The fixture.whenStable()
returns a promise that resolves when the JavaScript engine's task queue becomes empty. In this example, the task queue becomes empty when the observable emits the first quote.
测试会在该 Promise 的回调中继续进行,它会调用 detectChanges()
来用期望的文本更新 quote 元素。
The test resumes within the promise callback, which calls detectChanges()
to update the quote element with the expected text.
Jasmine done()
虽然 waitForAsync()
和 fakeAsync()
函数可以大大简化 Angular 的异步测试,但你仍然可以回退到传统技术,并给 it
传一个以 done
回调为参数的函数。
While the waitForAsync()
and fakeAsync()
functions greatly simplify Angular asynchronous testing, you can still fall back to the traditional technique and pass it
a function that takes a done
callback.
但你不能在 waitForAsync()
或 fakeAsync()
函数中调用 done()
,因为那里的 done
参数是 undefined
。
You can't call done()
in waitForAsync()
or fakeAsync()
functions, because the done parameter
is undefined
.
现在,你要自己负责串联各种 Promise、处理错误,并在适当的时机调用 done()
。
Now you are responsible for chaining promises, handling errors, and calling done()
at the appropriate moments.
编写带有 done()
的测试函数要比用 waitForAsync()
和 fakeAsync()
的形式笨重。但是当代码涉及到像 setInterval
这样的 intervalTimer()
时,它往往是必要的。
Writing test functions with done()
, is more cumbersome than waitForAsync()
and fakeAsync()
, but it is occasionally necessary when code involves the intervalTimer()
like setInterval
.
这里是上一个测试的另外两种版本,用 done()
编写。第一个订阅了通过组件的 quote
属性暴露给模板的 Observable
。
Here are two more versions of the previous test, written with done()
. The first one subscribes to the Observable
exposed to the template by the component's quote
property.
it('should show last quote (quote done)', (done: DoneFn) => {
fixture.detectChanges();
component.quote.pipe(last()).subscribe(() => {
fixture.detectChanges(); // update view with quote
expect(quoteEl.textContent).toBe(testQuote);
expect(errorMessage()).toBeNull('should not show error');
done();
});
});
RxJS 的 last()
操作符会在完成之前发出可观察对象的最后一个值,它同样是测试名言。subscribe
回调会调用 detectChanges()
来使用测试名言刷新的 quote 元素,方法与之前的测试一样。
The RxJS last()
operator emits the observable's last value before completing, which will be the test quote. The subscribe
callback calls detectChanges()
to update the quote element with the test quote, in the same manner as the earlier tests.
在某些测试中,你可能更关心注入的服务方法是如何被调的以及它返回了什么值,而不是屏幕显示的内容。
In some tests, you're more interested in how an injected service method was called and what values it returned, than what appears on screen.
服务间谍,比如伪 TwainService
上的 qetQuote()
间谍,可以给你那些信息,并对视图的状态做出断言。
A service spy, such as the qetQuote()
spy of the fake TwainService
, can give you that information and make assertions about the state of the view.
it('should show quote after getQuote (spy done)', (done: DoneFn) => {
fixture.detectChanges();
// the spy's most recent call returns the observable with the test quote
getQuoteSpy.calls.mostRecent().returnValue.subscribe(() => {
fixture.detectChanges(); // update view with quote
expect(quoteEl.textContent).toBe(testQuote);
expect(errorMessage()).toBeNull('should not show error');
done();
});
});
组件的弹珠测试
Component marble tests
前面的 TwainComponent
测试通过 asyncData
和 asyncError
工具函数模拟了一个来自 TwainService
的异步响应体可观察对象。
The previous TwainComponent
tests simulated an asynchronous observable response from the TwainService
with the asyncData
and asyncError
utilities.
你可以自己编写这些简短易用的函数。不幸的是,对于很多常见的场景来说,它们太简单了。可观察对象经常会发送很多次,可能是在经过一段显著的延迟之后。组件可以用重叠的值序列和错误序列来协调多个可观察对象。
These are short, simple functions that you can write yourself. Unfortunately, they're too simple for many common scenarios. An observable often emits multiple times, perhaps after a significant delay. A component may coordinate multiple observables with overlapping sequences of values and errors.
RxJS 弹珠测试是一种测试可观察场景的好方法,它既简单又复杂。你很可能已经看过用于说明可观察对象是如何工作弹珠图。弹珠测试使用类似的弹珠语言来指定测试中的可观察流和期望值。
RxJS marble testing is a great way to test observable scenarios, both simple and complex. You've likely seen the marble diagrams that illustrate how observables work. Marble testing uses a similar marble language to specify the observable streams and expectations in your tests.
下面的例子用弹珠测试再次实现了 TwainComponent
中的两个测试。
The following examples revisit two of the TwainComponent
tests with marble testing.
首先安装 npm 包 jasmine-marbles
。然后导入你需要的符号。
Start by installing the jasmine-marbles
npm package. Then import the symbols you need.
import { cold, getTestScheduler } from 'jasmine-marbles';
获取名言的完整测试方法如下:
Here's the complete test for getting a quote:
it('should show quote after getQuote (marbles)', () => {
// observable test quote value and complete(), after delay
const q$ = cold('---x|', { x: testQuote });
getQuoteSpy.and.returnValue( q$ );
fixture.detectChanges(); // ngOnInit()
expect(quoteEl.textContent).toBe('...', 'should show placeholder');
getTestScheduler().flush(); // flush the observables
fixture.detectChanges(); // update view
expect(quoteEl.textContent).toBe(testQuote, 'should show quote');
expect(errorMessage()).toBeNull('should not show error');
});
注意,这个 Jasmine 测试是同步的。没有 fakeAsync()
。 弹珠测试使用测试调度程序(scheduler)来模拟同步测试中的时间流逝。
Notice that the Jasmine test is synchronous. There's no fakeAsync()
. Marble testing uses a test scheduler to simulate the passage of time in a synchronous test.
弹珠测试的美妙之处在于对可观察对象流的视觉定义。这个测试定义了一个冷可观察对象,它等待三帧( ---
),发出一个值( x
),并完成( |
)。在第二个参数中,你把值标记( x
)映射到了发出的值( testQuote
)。
The beauty of marble testing is in the visual definition of the observable streams. This test defines a cold observable that waits three frames (---
), emits a value (x
), and completes (|
). In the second argument you map the value marker (x
) to the emitted value (testQuote
).
const q$ = cold('---x|', { x: testQuote });
这个弹珠库会构造出相应的可观察对象,测试程序把它用作 getQuote
间谍的返回值。
The marble library constructs the corresponding observable, which the test sets as the getQuote
spy's return value.
当你准备好激活弹珠的可观察对象时,就告诉 TestScheduler
把它准备好的任务队列刷新一下。
When you're ready to activate the marble observables, you tell the TestScheduler
to flush its queue of prepared tasks like this.
getTestScheduler().flush(); // flush the observables
这个步骤的作用类似于之前的 fakeAsync()
和 waitForAsync()
例子中的 tick() 和 whenStable()
测试。对这种测试的权衡策略与那些例子是一样的。
This step serves a purpose analogous to tick() and whenStable()
in the earlier fakeAsync()
and waitForAsync()
examples. The balance of the test is the same as those examples.
弹珠错误测试
Marble error testing
下面是 getQuote()
错误测试的弹珠测试版。
Here's the marble testing version of the getQuote()
error test.
it('should display error when TwainService fails', fakeAsync(() => {
// observable error after delay
const q$ = cold('---#|', null, new Error('TwainService test failure'));
getQuoteSpy.and.returnValue( q$ );
fixture.detectChanges(); // ngOnInit()
expect(quoteEl.textContent).toBe('...', 'should show placeholder');
getTestScheduler().flush(); // flush the observables
tick(); // component shows error after a setTimeout()
fixture.detectChanges(); // update error message
expect(errorMessage()).toMatch(/test failure/, 'should display error');
expect(quoteEl.textContent).toBe('...', 'should show placeholder');
}));
它仍然是异步测试,调用 fakeAsync()
和 tick(),因为该组件在处理错误时会调用 setTimeout()
。
It's still an async test, calling fakeAsync()
and tick(), because the component itself calls setTimeout()
when processing errors.
看看这个弹珠的可观察定义。
Look at the marble observable definition.
const q$ = cold('---#|', null, new Error('TwainService test failure'));
这是一个冷可观察对象,等待三帧,然后发出一个错误,井号(#
)标出了在第三个参数中指定错误的发生时间。第二个参数为 null,因为该可观察对象永远不会发出值。
This is a cold observable that waits three frames and then emits an error, The hash (#
) indicates the timing of the error that is specified in the third argument. The second argument is null because the observable never emits a value.
了解弹珠测试
Learn about marble testing
弹珠帧是测试时间线上的虚拟单位。每个符号( -
, x
, |
, #
)都表示经过了一帧。
A marble frame is a virtual unit of testing time. Each symbol (-
, x
, |
, #
) marks the passing of one frame.
冷可观察对象在你订阅它之前不会产生值。你的大多数应用中可观察对象都是冷的。所有的 HttpClient 方法返回的都是冷可观察对象。
A cold observable doesn't produce values until you subscribe to it. Most of your application observables are cold. All HttpClient methods return cold observables.
而热可观察对象在订阅它之前就已经在生成了这些值。用来报告路由器活动的 Router.events 可观察对象就是一种热可观察对象。
A hot observable is already producing values before you subscribe to it. The Router.events observable, which reports router activity, is a hot observable.
RxJS 弹珠测试这个主题非常丰富,超出了本指南的范围。你可以在网上了解它,先从其官方文档开始。
RxJS marble testing is a rich subject, beyond the scope of this guide. Learn about it on the web, starting with the official documentation.
具有输入和输出属性的组件
Component with inputs and outputs
具有输入和输出属性的组件通常会出现在宿主组件的视图模板中。宿主使用属性绑定来设置输入属性,并使用事件绑定来监听输出属性引发的事件。
A component with inputs and outputs typically appears inside the view template of a host component. The host uses a property binding to set the input property and an event binding to listen to events raised by the output property.
本测试的目标是验证这些绑定是否如预期般工作。这些测试应该设置输入值并监听输出事件。
The testing goal is to verify that such bindings work as expected. The tests should set input values and listen for output events.
DashboardHeroComponent
是这类组件的一个小例子。它会显示由 DashboardComponent
提供的一个英雄。点击这个英雄就会告诉 DashboardComponent
,用户已经选择了此英雄。
The DashboardHeroComponent
is a tiny example of a component in this role. It displays an individual hero provided by the DashboardComponent
. Clicking that hero tells the DashboardComponent
that the user has selected the hero.
DashboardHeroComponent
会像这样内嵌在 DashboardComponent
模板中的:
The DashboardHeroComponent
is embedded in the DashboardComponent
template like this:
<dashboard-hero *ngFor="let hero of heroes" class="col-1-4"
[hero]=hero (selected)="gotoDetail($event)" >
</dashboard-hero>
DashboardHeroComponent
出现在 *ngFor
复写器中,把它的输入属性 hero
设置为当前的循环变量,并监听该组件的 selected
事件。
The DashboardHeroComponent
appears in an *ngFor
repeater, which sets each component's hero
input property to the looping value and listens for the component's selected
event.
这里是组件的完整定义:
Here's the component's full definition:
@Component({
selector: 'dashboard-hero',
template: `
<div (click)="click()" class="hero">
{{hero.name | uppercase}}
</div>`,
styleUrls: [ './dashboard-hero.component.css' ]
})
export class DashboardHeroComponent {
@Input() hero: Hero;
@Output() selected = new EventEmitter<Hero>();
click() { this.selected.emit(this.hero); }
}
在测试一个组件时,像这样简单的场景没什么内在价值,但值得了解它。你可以继续尝试这些方法:
While testing a component this simple has little intrinsic value, it's worth knowing how. You can use one of these approaches:
用
DashboardComponent
来测试它。Test it as used by
DashboardComponent
.把它作为一个独立的组件进行测试。
Test it as a stand-alone component.
用
DashboardComponent
的一个替代品来测试它。Test it as used by a substitute for
DashboardComponent
.
快速看一眼 DashboardComponent
构造函数就知道不建议采用第一种方法:
A quick look at the DashboardComponent
constructor discourages the first approach:
constructor(
private router: Router,
private heroService: HeroService) {
}
DashboardComponent
依赖于 Angular 的路由器和 HeroService
。你可能不得不用测试替身来代替它们,这有很多工作。路由器看上去特别有挑战性。
The DashboardComponent
depends on the Angular router and the HeroService
. You'd probably have to replace them both with test doubles, which is a lot of work. The router seems particularly challenging.
下面的讨论涵盖了如何测试那些需要用到路由器的组件。
The discussion below covers testing components that require the router.
当前的目标是测试 DashboardHeroComponent
,而不是 DashboardComponent
,所以试试第二个和第三个选项。
The immediate goal is to test the DashboardHeroComponent
, not the DashboardComponent
, so, try the second and third options.
单独测试 DashboardHeroComponent
Test DashboardHeroComponent stand-alone
这里是 spec 文件中环境设置部分的内容。
Here's the meat of the spec file setup.
TestBed
.configureTestingModule({declarations: [DashboardHeroComponent]})
fixture = TestBed.createComponent(DashboardHeroComponent);
comp = fixture.componentInstance;
// find the hero's DebugElement and element
heroDe = fixture.debugElement.query(By.css('.hero'));
heroEl = heroDe.nativeElement;
// mock the hero supplied by the parent component
expectedHero = {id: 42, name: 'Test Name'};
// simulate the parent setting the input property with that hero
comp.hero = expectedHero;
// trigger initial data binding
fixture.detectChanges();
注意这些设置代码如何把一个测试英雄( expectedHero
)赋值给组件的 hero
属性的,它模仿了 DashboardComponent
在其复写器中通过属性绑定来设置它的方式。
Note how the setup code assigns a test hero (expectedHero
) to the component's hero
property, emulating the way the DashboardComponent
would set it via the property binding in its repeater.
下面的测试验证了英雄名是通过绑定传播到模板的。
The following test verifies that the hero name is propagated to the template via a binding.
it('should display hero name in uppercase', () => {
const expectedPipedName = expectedHero.name.toUpperCase();
expect(heroEl.textContent).toContain(expectedPipedName);
});
因为模板把英雄的名字传给了 UpperCasePipe
,所以测试必须要让元素值与其大写形式的名字一致。
Because the template passes the hero name through the Angular UpperCasePipe
, the test must match the element value with the upper-cased name.
这个小测试演示了 Angular 测试会如何验证一个组件的可视化表示形式 - 这是组件类测试所无法实现的 - 成本相对较低,无需进行更慢、更复杂的端到端测试。
This small test demonstrates how Angular tests can verify a component's visual representation—something not possible with component class tests—at low cost and without resorting to much slower and more complicated end-to-end tests.
点击
Clicking
单击该英雄应该会让一个宿主组件(可能是 DashboardComponent
)监听到 selected
事件。
Clicking the hero should raise a selected
event that the host component (DashboardComponent
presumably) can hear:
it('should raise selected event when clicked (triggerEventHandler)', () => {
let selectedHero: Hero;
comp.selected.subscribe((hero: Hero) => selectedHero = hero);
heroDe.triggerEventHandler('click', null);
expect(selectedHero).toBe(expectedHero);
});
该组件的 selected
属性给消费者返回了一个 EventEmitter
,它看起来像是 RxJS 的同步 Observable
。 该测试只有在宿主组件隐式触发时才需要显式订阅它。
The component's selected
property returns an EventEmitter
, which looks like an RxJS synchronous Observable
to consumers. The test subscribes to it explicitly just as the host component does implicitly.
当组件的行为符合预期时,单击此英雄的元素就会告诉组件的 selected
属性发出了一个 hero
对象。
If the component behaves as expected, clicking the hero's element should tell the component's selected
property to emit the hero
object.
该测试通过对 selected
的订阅来检测该事件。
The test detects that event through its subscription to selected
.
triggerEventHandler
前面测试中的 heroDe
是一个指向英雄条目 <div>
的 DebugElement
。
The heroDe
in the previous test is a DebugElement
that represents the hero <div>
.
它有一些用于抽象与原生元素交互的 Angular 属性和方法。 这个测试会使用事件名称 click
来调用 DebugElement.triggerEventHandler
。 click
的事件绑定到了 DashboardHeroComponent.click()
。
It has Angular properties and methods that abstract interaction with the native element. This test calls the DebugElement.triggerEventHandler
with the "click" event name. The "click" event binding responds by calling DashboardHeroComponent.click()
.
Angular 的 DebugElement.triggerEventHandler
可以用事件的名字触发任何数据绑定事件。 第二个参数是传给事件处理器的事件对象。
The Angular DebugElement.triggerEventHandler
can raise any data-bound event by its event name. The second parameter is the event object passed to the handler.
该测试使用事件对象 null
触发了一次 click
事件。
The test triggered a "click" event with a null
event object.
heroDe.triggerEventHandler('click', null);
测试程序假设(在这里应该这样)运行时间的事件处理器(组件的 click()
方法)不关心事件对象。
The test assumes (correctly in this case) that the runtime event handler—the component's click()
method—doesn't care about the event object.
其它处理器的要求比较严格。比如,RouterLink
指令期望一个带有 button
属性的对象,该属性用于指出点击时按下的是哪个鼠标按钮。 如果不给出这个事件对象,RouterLink
指令就会抛出一个错误。
Other handlers are less forgiving. For example, the RouterLink
directive expects an object with a button
property that identifies which mouse button (if any) was pressed during the click. The RouterLink
directive throws an error if the event object is missing.
点击该元素
Click the element
下面这个测试改为调用原生元素自己的 click()
方法,它对于这个组件来说相当完美。
The following test alternative calls the native element's own click()
method, which is perfectly fine for this component.
it('should raise selected event when clicked (element.click)', () => {
let selectedHero: Hero;
comp.selected.subscribe((hero: Hero) => selectedHero = hero);
heroEl.click();
expect(selectedHero).toBe(expectedHero);
});
click() 辅助函数
click() helper
点击按钮、链接或者任意 HTML 元素是很常见的测试任务。
Clicking a button, an anchor, or an arbitrary HTML element is a common test task.
把点击事件的处理过程包装到如下的 click()
辅助函数中,可以让这项任务更一致、更简单:
Make that consistent and easy by encapsulating the click-triggering process in a helper such as the click()
function below:
/** Button events to pass to `DebugElement.triggerEventHandler` for RouterLink event handler */
export const ButtonClickEvents = {
left: { button: 0 },
right: { button: 2 }
};
/** Simulate element click. Defaults to mouse left-button click event. */
export function click(el: DebugElement | HTMLElement, eventObj: any = ButtonClickEvents.left): void {
if (el instanceof HTMLElement) {
el.click();
} else {
el.triggerEventHandler('click', eventObj);
}
}
第一个参数是用来点击的元素。如果你愿意,可以将自定义的事件对象传给第二个参数。 默认的是(局部的)鼠标左键事件对象, 它被许多事件处理器接受,包括 RouterLink
指令。
The first parameter is the element-to-click. If you wish, you can pass a custom event object as the second parameter. The default is a (partial) left-button mouse event object accepted by many handlers including the RouterLink
directive.
click()
辅助函数不是Angular 测试工具之一。 它是在本章的例子代码中定义的函数方法,被所有测试例子所用。 如果你喜欢它,将它添加到你自己的辅助函数集。
The click()
helper function is not one of the Angular testing utilities. It's a function defined in this guide's sample code. All of the sample tests use it. If you like it, add it to your own collection of helpers.
下面是把前面的测试用 click
辅助函数重写后的版本。
Here's the previous test, rewritten using the click helper.
it('should raise selected event when clicked (click helper)', () => {
let selectedHero: Hero;
comp.selected.subscribe((hero: Hero) => selectedHero = hero);
click(heroDe); // click helper with DebugElement
click(heroEl); // click helper with native element
expect(selectedHero).toBe(expectedHero);
});
位于测试宿主中的组件
Component inside a test host
前面的这些测试都是自己扮演宿主元素 DashboardComponent
的角色。 但是当 DashboardHeroComponent
真的绑定到某个宿主元素时还能正常工作吗?
The previous tests played the role of the host DashboardComponent
themselves. But does the DashboardHeroComponent
work correctly when properly data-bound to a host component?
固然,你也可以测试真实的 DashboardComponent
。 但要想这么做需要做很多准备工作,特别是它的模板中使用了某些特性,如 *ngFor
、 其它组件、布局 HTML、附加绑定、注入了多个服务的构造函数、如何用正确的方式与那些服务交互等。
You could test with the actual DashboardComponent
. But doing so could require a lot of setup, especially when its template features an *ngFor
repeater, other components, layout HTML, additional bindings, a constructor that injects multiple services, and it starts interacting with those services right away.
想出这么多需要努力排除的干扰,只是为了证明一点 —— 可以造出这样一个令人满意的测试宿主:
Imagine the effort to disable these distractions, just to prove a point that can be made satisfactorily with a test host like this one:
@Component({
template: `
<dashboard-hero
[hero]="hero" (selected)="onSelected($event)">
</dashboard-hero>`
})
class TestHostComponent {
hero: Hero = {id: 42, name: 'Test Name'};
selectedHero: Hero;
onSelected(hero: Hero) {
this.selectedHero = hero;
}
}
这个测试宿主像 DashboardComponent
那样绑定了 DashboardHeroComponent
,但是没有 Router
、 没有 HeroService
,也没有 *ngFor
。
This test host binds to DashboardHeroComponent
as the DashboardComponent
would but without the noise of the Router
, the HeroService
, or the *ngFor
repeater.
这个测试宿主使用其测试用的英雄设置了组件的输入属性 hero
。 它使用 onSelected
事件处理器绑定了组件的 selected
事件,其中把事件中发出的英雄记录到了 selectedHero
属性中。
The test host sets the component's hero
input property with its test hero. It binds the component's selected
event with its onSelected
handler, which records the emitted hero in its selectedHero
property.
稍后,这个测试就可以轻松检查 selectedHero
以验证 DashboardHeroComponent.selected
事件确实发出了所期望的英雄。
Later, the tests will be able to easily check selectedHero
to verify that the DashboardHeroComponent.selected
event emitted the expected hero.
这个测试宿主中的准备代码和独立测试中的准备过程类似:
The setup for the test-host tests is similar to the setup for the stand-alone tests:
TestBed
.configureTestingModule({declarations: [DashboardHeroComponent, TestHostComponent]})
// create TestHostComponent instead of DashboardHeroComponent
fixture = TestBed.createComponent(TestHostComponent);
testHost = fixture.componentInstance;
heroEl = fixture.nativeElement.querySelector('.hero');
fixture.detectChanges(); // trigger initial data binding
这个测试模块的配置信息有三个重要的不同点:
This testing module configuration shows three important differences:
它同时声明了
DashboardHeroComponent
和TestHostComponent
。It declares both the
DashboardHeroComponent
and theTestHostComponent
.它创建了
TestHostComponent
,而非DashboardHeroComponent
。It creates the
TestHostComponent
instead of theDashboardHeroComponent
.TestHostComponent
通过绑定机制设置了DashboardHeroComponent.hero
。The
TestHostComponent
sets theDashboardHeroComponent.hero
with a binding.
createComponent
返回的 fixture
里有 TestHostComponent
实例,而非 DashboardHeroComponent
组件实例。
The createComponent
returns a fixture
that holds an instance of TestHostComponent
instead of an instance of DashboardHeroComponent
.
当然,创建 TestHostComponent
有创建 DashboardHeroComponent
的副作用,因为后者出现在前者的模板中。 英雄元素(heroEl
)的查询语句仍然可以在测试 DOM 中找到它,尽管元素树比以前更深。
Creating the TestHostComponent
has the side-effect of creating a DashboardHeroComponent
because the latter appears within the template of the former. The query for the hero element (heroEl
) still finds it in the test DOM, albeit at greater depth in the element tree than before.
这些测试本身和它们的孤立版本几乎相同:
The tests themselves are almost identical to the stand-alone version:
it('should display hero name', () => {
const expectedPipedName = testHost.hero.name.toUpperCase();
expect(heroEl.textContent).toContain(expectedPipedName);
});
it('should raise selected event when clicked', () => {
click(heroEl);
// selected hero should be the same data bound hero
expect(testHost.selectedHero).toBe(testHost.hero);
});
只有 selected 事件的测试不一样。它确保被选择的 DashboardHeroComponent
英雄确实通过事件绑定被传递到宿主组件。
Only the selected event test differs. It confirms that the selected DashboardHeroComponent
hero really does find its way up through the event binding to the host component.
路由组件
Routing component
所谓路由组件就是指会要求 Router
导航到其它组件的组件。 DashboardComponent
就是一个路由组件,因为用户可以通过点击仪表盘中的某个英雄按钮来导航到 HeroDetailComponent
。
A routing component is a component that tells the Router
to navigate to another component. The DashboardComponent
is a routing component because the user can navigate to the HeroDetailComponent
by clicking on one of the hero buttons on the dashboard.
路由确实很复杂。 测试 DashboardComponent
看上去有点令人生畏,因为它牵扯到和 HeroService
一起注入进来的 Router
。
Routing is pretty complicated. Testing the DashboardComponent
seemed daunting in part because it involves the Router
, which it injects together with the HeroService
.
constructor(
private router: Router,
private heroService: HeroService) {
}
使用间谍来 Mock HeroService
是一个熟悉的故事。 但是 Router
的 API 很复杂,并且与其它服务和应用的前置条件纠缠在一起。它应该很难进行 Mock 吧?
Mocking the HeroService
with a spy is a familiar story. But the Router
has a complicated API and is entwined with other services and application preconditions. Might it be difficult to mock?
庆幸的是,在这个例子中不会,因为 DashboardComponent
并没有深度使用 Router
。
Fortunately, not in this case because the DashboardComponent
isn't doing much with the Router
gotoDetail(hero: Hero) {
const url = `/heroes/${hero.id}`;
this.router.navigateByUrl(url);
}
这是路由组件中的通例。 一般来说,你应该测试组件而不是路由器,应该只关心组件有没有根据给定的条件导航到正确的地址。
This is often the case with routing components. As a rule you test the component, not the router, and care only if the component navigates with the right address under the given conditions.
为这个组件的测试套件提供路由器的间谍就像提供 HeroService
的间谍一样简单。
Providing a router spy for this component test suite happens to be as easy as providing a HeroService
spy.
const routerSpy = jasmine.createSpyObj('Router', ['navigateByUrl']);
const heroServiceSpy = jasmine.createSpyObj('HeroService', ['getHeroes']);
TestBed
.configureTestingModule({
providers: [
{provide: HeroService, useValue: heroServiceSpy}, {provide: Router, useValue: routerSpy}
]
})
下面这个测试会点击正在显示的英雄,并确认 Router.navigateByUrl
曾用所期待的 URL 调用过。
The following test clicks the displayed hero and confirms that Router.navigateByUrl
is called with the expected url.
it('should tell ROUTER to navigate when hero clicked', () => {
heroClick(); // trigger click on first inner <div class="hero">
// args passed to router.navigateByUrl() spy
const spy = router.navigateByUrl as jasmine.Spy;
const navArgs = spy.calls.first().args[0];
// expecting to navigate to id of the component's first hero
const id = comp.heroes[0].id;
expect(navArgs).toBe('/heroes/' + id, 'should nav to HeroDetail for first hero');
});
路由目标组件
Routed components
路由目标组件是指 Router
导航到的目标。 它测试起来可能很复杂,特别是当路由到的这个组件包含参数的时候。 HeroDetailComponent
就是一个路由目标组件,它是某个路由定义指向的目标。
A routed component is the destination of a Router
navigation. It can be trickier to test, especially when the route to the component includes parameters. The HeroDetailComponent
is a routed component that is the destination of such a route.
当用户点击仪表盘中的英雄时,DashboardComponent
会要求 Router
导航到 heroes/:id
。 :id
是一个路由参数,它的值就是所要编辑的英雄的 id
。
When a user clicks a Dashboard hero, the DashboardComponent
tells the Router
to navigate to heroes/:id
. The :id
is a route parameter whose value is the id
of the hero to edit.
该 Router
会根据那个 URL 匹配到一个指向 HeroDetailComponent
的路由。 它会创建一个带有路由信息的 ActivatedRoute
对象,并把它注入到一个 HeroDetailComponent
的新实例中。
The Router
matches that URL to a route to the HeroDetailComponent
. It creates an ActivatedRoute
object with the routing information and injects it into a new instance of the HeroDetailComponent
.
下面是 HeroDetailComponent
的构造函数:
Here's the HeroDetailComponent
constructor:
constructor(
private heroDetailService: HeroDetailService,
private route: ActivatedRoute,
private router: Router) {
}
HeroDetailComponent
组件需要一个 id
参数,以便通过 HeroDetailService
获取相应的英雄。 该组件只能从 ActivatedRoute.paramMap
属性中获取这个 id
,这个属性是一个 Observable
。
The HeroDetail
component needs the id
parameter so it can fetch the corresponding hero via the HeroDetailService
. The component has to get the id
from the ActivatedRoute.paramMap
property which is an Observable
.
它不能仅仅引用 ActivatedRoute.paramMap
的 id
属性。 该组件不得不订阅 ActivatedRoute.paramMap
这个可观察对象,要做好它在生命周期中随时会发生变化的准备。
It can't just reference the id
property of the ActivatedRoute.paramMap
. The component has to subscribe to the ActivatedRoute.paramMap
observable and be prepared for the id
to change during its lifetime.
ngOnInit(): void {
// get hero when `id` param changes
this.route.paramMap.subscribe(pmap => this.getHero(pmap.get('id')));
}
路由教程:英雄之旅一章的 ActivatedRoute 实战部分详细讲解了 ActivatedRoute.paramMap
。
The ActivatedRoute in action section of the Router tutorial: tour of heroes guide covers ActivatedRoute.paramMap
in more detail.
通过操纵注入到组件构造函数中的这个 ActivatedRoute
,测试可以探查 HeroDetailComponent
是如何对不同的 id
参数值做出响应的。
Tests can explore how the HeroDetailComponent
responds to different id
parameter values by manipulating the ActivatedRoute
injected into the component's constructor.
你已经知道了如何给 Router
和数据服务安插间谍。
You know how to spy on the Router
and a data service.
不过对于 ActivatedRoute
,你要采用另一种方式,因为:
You'll take a different approach with ActivatedRoute
because
在测试期间,
paramMap
会返回一个能发出多个值的Observable
。paramMap
returns anObservable
that can emit more than one value during a test.你需要路由器的辅助函数
convertToParamMap()
来创建ParamMap
。You need the router helper function,
convertToParamMap()
, to create aParamMap
.针对路由目标组件的其它测试需要一个
ActivatedRoute
的测试替身。Other routed component tests need a test double for
ActivatedRoute
.
这些差异表明你需要一个可复用的桩类(stub)。
These differences argue for a re-usable stub class.
ActivatedRouteStub
下面的 ActivatedRouteStub
类就是作为 ActivatedRoute
类的测试替身使用的。
The following ActivatedRouteStub
class serves as a test double for ActivatedRoute
.
import { convertToParamMap, ParamMap, Params } from '@angular/router';
import { ReplaySubject } from 'rxjs';
/**
* An ActivateRoute test double with a `paramMap` observable.
* Use the `setParamMap()` method to add the next `paramMap` value.
*/
export class ActivatedRouteStub {
// Use a ReplaySubject to share previous values with subscribers
// and pump new values into the `paramMap` observable
private subject = new ReplaySubject<ParamMap>();
constructor(initialParams?: Params) {
this.setParamMap(initialParams);
}
/** The mock paramMap observable */
readonly paramMap = this.subject.asObservable();
/** Set the paramMap observable's next value */
setParamMap(params: Params = {}) {
this.subject.next(convertToParamMap(params));
}
}
考虑把这类辅助函数放进一个紧邻 app
文件夹的 testing
文件夹。 这个例子把 ActivatedRouteStub
放在了 testing/activated-route-stub.ts
中。
Consider placing such helpers in a testing
folder sibling to the app
folder. This sample puts ActivatedRouteStub
in testing/activated-route-stub.ts
.
可以考虑使用弹珠测试库来为此测试桩编写一个更强力的版本。
Consider writing a more capable version of this stub class with the marble testing library.
使用 ActivatedRouteStub
进行测试
Testing with ActivatedRouteStub
下面的测试程序是演示组件在被观察的 id
指向现有英雄时的行为:
Here's a test demonstrating the component's behavior when the observed id
refers to an existing hero:
describe('when navigate to existing hero', () => {
let expectedHero: Hero;
beforeEach(async () => {
expectedHero = firstHero;
activatedRoute.setParamMap({id: expectedHero.id});
await createComponent();
});
it('should display that hero\'s name', () => {
expect(page.nameDisplay.textContent).toBe(expectedHero.name);
});
});
createComponent()
方法和 page
对象会在稍后进行讨论。 不过目前,你只要凭直觉来理解就行了。
The createComponent()
method and page
object are discussed below. Rely on your intuition for now.
当找不到 id
的时候,组件应该重新路由到 HeroListComponent
。
When the id
cannot be found, the component should re-route to the HeroListComponent
.
测试套件的准备代码提供了一个和前面一样的路由器间谍,它会充当路由器的角色,而不用发起实际的导航。
The test suite setup provided the same router spy described above which spies on the router without actually navigating.
这个测试中会期待该组件尝试导航到 HeroListComponent
。
This test expects the component to try to navigate to the HeroListComponent
.
describe('when navigate to non-existent hero id', () => {
beforeEach(async () => {
activatedRoute.setParamMap({id: 99999});
await createComponent();
});
it('should try to navigate back to hero list', () => {
expect(page.gotoListSpy.calls.any()).toBe(true, 'comp.gotoList called');
expect(page.navigateSpy.calls.any()).toBe(true, 'router.navigate called');
});
});
虽然本应用没有在缺少 id
参数的时候,继续导航到 HeroDetailComponent
的路由,但是,将来它可能会添加这样的路由。 当没有 id
时,该组件应该作出合理的反应。
While this app doesn't have a route to the HeroDetailComponent
that omits the id
parameter, it might add such a route someday. The component should do something reasonable when there is no id
.
在本例中,组件应该创建和显示新英雄。 新英雄的 id
为零,name
为空。本测试程序确认组件是按照预期的这样做的:
In this implementation, the component should create and display a new hero. New heroes have id=0
and a blank name
. This test confirms that the component behaves as expected:
describe('when navigate with no hero id', () => {
beforeEach(async () => {
await createComponent();
});
it('should have hero.id === 0', () => {
expect(component.hero.id).toBe(0);
});
it('should display empty hero name', () => {
expect(page.nameDisplay.textContent).toBe('');
});
});
对嵌套组件的测试
Nested component tests
组件的模板中通常还会有嵌套组件,嵌套组件的模板还可能包含更多组件。
Component templates often have nested components, whose templates may contain more components.
这棵组件树可能非常深,并且大多数时候在测试这棵树顶部的组件时,这些嵌套的组件都无关紧要。
The component tree can be very deep and, most of the time, the nested components play no role in testing the component at the top of the tree.
比如,AppComponent
会显示一个带有链接及其 RouterLink
指令的导航条。
The AppComponent
, for example, displays a navigation bar with anchors and their RouterLink
directives.
<app-banner></app-banner>
<app-welcome></app-welcome>
<nav>
<a routerLink="/dashboard">Dashboard</a>
<a routerLink="/heroes">Heroes</a>
<a routerLink="/about">About</a>
</nav>
<router-outlet></router-outlet>
虽然 AppComponent
类是空的,不过,由于稍后解释的原因,你可能会希望写个单元测试来确认这些链接是否正确使用了 RouterLink
指令。
While the AppComponent
class is empty, you may want to write unit tests to confirm that the links are wired properly to the RouterLink
directives, perhaps for the reasons explained below.
要想验证这些链接,你不必用 Router
进行导航,也不必使用 <router-outlet>
来指出 Router
应该把路由目标组件插入到什么地方。
To validate the links, you don't need the Router
to navigate and you don't need the <router-outlet>
to mark where the Router
inserts routed components.
而 BannerComponent
和 WelcomeComponent
(写作 <app-banner>
和 <app-welcome>
)也同样风马牛不相及。
The BannerComponent
and WelcomeComponent
(indicated by <app-banner>
and <app-welcome>
) are also irrelevant.
然而,任何测试,只要能在 DOM 中创建 AppComponent
,也就同样能创建这三个组件的实例。如果要创建它们,你就要配置 TestBed
。
Yet any test that creates the AppComponent
in the DOM will also create instances of these three components and, if you let that happen, you'll have to configure the TestBed
to create them.
如果你忘了声明它们,Angular 编译器就无法在 AppComponent
模板中识别出 <app-banner>
、<app-welcome>
和 <router-outlet>
标记,并抛出一个错误。
If you neglect to declare them, the Angular compiler won't recognize the <app-banner>
, <app-welcome>
, and <router-outlet>
tags in the AppComponent
template and will throw an error.
如果你声明的这些都是真实的组件,那么也同样要声明它们的嵌套组件,并要为这棵组件树中的任何组件提供要注入的所有服务。
If you declare the real components, you'll also have to declare their nested components and provide for all services injected in any component in the tree.
如果只是想回答关于链接的一些简单问题,做这些显然就太多了。
That's too much effort just to answer a few simple questions about links.
本节会讲减少此类准备工作的两项技术。 单独使用或组合使用它们,可以让这些测试聚焦于要测试的主要组件上。
This section describes two techniques for minimizing the setup. Use them, alone or in combination, to stay focused on testing the primary component.
对不需要的组件提供桩(stub)
Stubbing unneeded components
这项技术中,你要为那些在测试中无关紧要的组件或指令创建和声明一些测试桩。
In the first technique, you create and declare stub versions of the components and directive that play little or no role in the tests.
@Component({selector: 'app-banner', template: ''})
class BannerStubComponent {
}
@Component({selector: 'router-outlet', template: ''})
class RouterOutletStubComponent {
}
@Component({selector: 'app-welcome', template: ''})
class WelcomeStubComponent {
}
这些测试桩的选择器要和其对应的真实组件一致,但其模板和类是空的。
The stub selectors match the selectors for the corresponding real components. But their templates and classes are empty.
然后在 TestBed
的配置中那些真正有用的组件、指令、管道之后声明它们。
Then declare them in the TestBed
configuration next to the components, directives, and pipes that need to be real.
TestBed
.configureTestingModule({
declarations: [
AppComponent, RouterLinkDirectiveStub, BannerStubComponent, RouterOutletStubComponent,
WelcomeStubComponent
]
})
AppComponent
是该测试的主角,因此当然要用它的真实版本。
The AppComponent
is the test subject, so of course you declare the real version.
而 RouterLinkDirectiveStub
(稍后讲解)是一个真实的 RouterLink
的测试版,它能帮你对链接进行测试。
The RouterLinkDirectiveStub
, described later, is a test version of the real RouterLink
that helps with the link tests.
其它都是测试桩。
The rest are stubs.
NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA
第二种办法就是把 NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA
添加到 TestBed.schemas
的元数据中。
In the second approach, add NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA
to the TestBed.schemas
metadata.
TestBed
.configureTestingModule({
declarations: [
AppComponent,
RouterLinkDirectiveStub
],
schemas: [NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA]
})
NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA
会要求 Angular 编译器忽略不认识的那些元素和属性。
The NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA
tells the Angular compiler to ignore unrecognized elements and attributes.
编译器将会识别出 <app-root>
元素和 RouterLink
属性,因为你在 TestBed
的配置中声明了相应的 AppComponent
和 RouterLinkDirectiveStub
。
The compiler will recognize the <app-root>
element and the routerLink
attribute because you declared a corresponding AppComponent
and RouterLinkDirectiveStub
in the TestBed
configuration.
但编译器在遇到 <app-banner>
、<app-welcome>
或 <router-outlet>
时不会报错。 它只会把它们渲染成空白标签,而浏览器会忽略这些标签。
But the compiler won't throw an error when it encounters <app-banner>
, <app-welcome>
, or <router-outlet>
. It simply renders them as empty tags and the browser ignores them.
你不用再提供桩组件了。
You no longer need the stub components.
同时使用这两项技术
Use both techniques together
这些是进行浅层测试要用到的技术,之所以叫浅层测试是因为只包含本测试所关心的这个组件模板中的元素。
These are techniques for Shallow Component Testing , so-named because they reduce the visual surface of the component to just those elements in the component's template that matter for tests.
NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA
方法在这两者中比较简单,但也不要过度使用它。
The NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA
approach is the easier of the two but don't overuse it.
NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA
还会阻止编译器告诉你因为的疏忽或拼写错误而缺失的组件和属性。 你如果人工找出这些 bug 可能要浪费几个小时,但编译器可以立即捕获它们。
The NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA
also prevents the compiler from telling you about the missing components and attributes that you omitted inadvertently or misspelled. You could waste hours chasing phantom bugs that the compiler would have caught in an instant.
桩组件方式还有其它优点。 虽然这个例子中的桩是空的,但你如果想要和它们用某种形式互动,也可以给它们一些裁剪过的模板和类。
The stub component approach has another advantage. While the stubs in this example were empty, you could give them stripped-down templates and classes if your tests need to interact with them in some way.
在实践中,你可以在准备代码中组合使用这两种技术,例子如下:
In practice you will combine the two techniques in the same setup, as seen in this example.
TestBed
.configureTestingModule({
declarations: [
AppComponent,
BannerStubComponent,
RouterLinkDirectiveStub
],
schemas: [NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA]
})
Angular 编译器会为 <app-banner>
元素创建 BannerComponentStub
,并把 RouterLinkStubDirective
应用到带有 routerLink
属性的链接上,不过它会忽略 <app-welcome>
和 <router-outlet>
标签。
The Angular compiler creates the BannerComponentStub
for the <app-banner>
element and applies the RouterLinkStubDirective
to the anchors with the routerLink
attribute, but it ignores the <app-welcome>
and <router-outlet>
tags.
带有 RouterLink
的组件
Components with RouterLink
真实的 RouterLinkDirective
太复杂了,而且与 RouterModule
中的其它组件和指令有着千丝万缕的联系。 要在准备阶段 Mock 它以及在测试中使用它具有一定的挑战性。
The real RouterLinkDirective
is quite complicated and entangled with other components and directives of the RouterModule
. It requires challenging setup to mock and use in tests.
这段范例代码中的 RouterLinkDirectiveStub
用一个代用品替换了真实的指令,这个代用品用来验证 AppComponent
中所用链接的类型。
The RouterLinkDirectiveStub
in this sample code replaces the real directive with an alternative version designed to validate the kind of anchor tag wiring seen in the AppComponent
template.
@Directive({
selector: '[routerLink]'
})
export class RouterLinkDirectiveStub {
@Input('routerLink') linkParams: any;
navigatedTo: any = null;
@HostListener('click')
onClick() {
this.navigatedTo = this.linkParams;
}
}
这个 URL 被绑定到了 [routerLink]
属性,它的值流入了该指令的 linkParams
属性。
The URL bound to the [routerLink]
attribute flows in to the directive's linkParams
property.
它的元数据中的 host
属性把宿主元素(即 AppComponent
中的 <a>
元素)的 click
事件关联到了这个桩指令的 onClick
方法。
The HostListener
wires the click event of the host element (the <a>
anchor elements in AppComponent
) to the stub directive's onClick
method.
点击这个链接应该触发 onClick()
方法,其中会设置该桩指令中的警示器属性 navigatedTo
。 测试中检查 navigatedTo
以确认点击该链接确实如预期的那样根据路由定义设置了该属性。
Clicking the anchor should trigger the onClick()
method, which sets the stub's telltale navigatedTo
property. Tests inspect navigatedTo
to confirm that clicking the anchor sets the expected route definition.
路由器的配置是否正确和是否能按照那些路由定义进行导航,是测试中一组独立的问题。
Whether the router is configured properly to navigate with that route definition is a question for a separate set of tests.
By.directive
与注入的指令
By.directive and injected directives
再一步配置触发了数据绑定的初始化,获取导航链接的引用:
A little more setup triggers the initial data binding and gets references to the navigation links:
beforeEach(() => {
fixture.detectChanges(); // trigger initial data binding
// find DebugElements with an attached RouterLinkStubDirective
linkDes = fixture.debugElement.queryAll(By.directive(RouterLinkDirectiveStub));
// get attached link directive instances
// using each DebugElement's injector
routerLinks = linkDes.map(de => de.injector.get(RouterLinkDirectiveStub));
});
有三点特别重要:
Three points of special interest:
你可以使用
By.directive
来定位一个带附属指令的链接元素。You can locate the anchor elements with an attached directive using
By.directive
.该查询返回包含了匹配元素的
DebugElement
包装器。The query returns
DebugElement
wrappers around the matching elements.每个
DebugElement
都会导出该元素中的一个依赖注入器,其中带有指定的指令实例。Each
DebugElement
exposes a dependency injector with the specific instance of the directive attached to that element.
AppComponent
中要验证的链接如下:
The AppComponent
links to validate are as follows:
<nav>
<a routerLink="/dashboard">Dashboard</a>
<a routerLink="/heroes">Heroes</a>
<a routerLink="/about">About</a>
</nav>
下面这些测试用来确认那些链接是否如预期般连接到了 RouterLink
指令中:
Here are some tests that confirm those links are wired to the routerLink
directives as expected:
it('can get RouterLinks from template', () => {
expect(routerLinks.length).toBe(3, 'should have 3 routerLinks');
expect(routerLinks[0].linkParams).toBe('/dashboard');
expect(routerLinks[1].linkParams).toBe('/heroes');
expect(routerLinks[2].linkParams).toBe('/about');
});
it('can click Heroes link in template', () => {
const heroesLinkDe = linkDes[1]; // heroes link DebugElement
const heroesLink = routerLinks[1]; // heroes link directive
expect(heroesLink.navigatedTo).toBeNull('should not have navigated yet');
heroesLinkDe.triggerEventHandler('click', null);
fixture.detectChanges();
expect(heroesLink.navigatedTo).toBe('/heroes');
});
其实这个例子中的“click”测试误入歧途了。 它测试的重点其实是 RouterLinkDirectiveStub
,而不是该组件。 这是写桩指令时常见的错误。
The "click" test in this example is misleading. It tests the RouterLinkDirectiveStub
rather than the component. This is a common failing of directive stubs.
在本章中,它有存在的必要。 它演示了如何在不涉及完整路由器机制的情况下,如何找到 RouterLink
元素、点击它并检查结果。 要测试更复杂的组件,你可能需要具备这样的能力,能改变视图和重新计算参数,或者当用户点击链接时,有能力重新安排导航选项。
It has a legitimate purpose in this guide. It demonstrates how to find a RouterLink
element, click it, and inspect a result, without engaging the full router machinery. This is a skill you may need to test a more sophisticated component, one that changes the display, re-calculates parameters, or re-arranges navigation options when the user clicks the link.
这些测试有什么优点?
What good are these tests?
用 RouterLink
的桩指令进行测试可以确认带有链接和 outlet 的组件的设置的正确性,确认组件有应该有的链接,确认它们都指向了正确的方向。 这些测试程序不关心用户点击链接时,也不关心应用是否会成功的导航到目标组件。
Stubbed RouterLink
tests can confirm that a component with links and an outlet is setup properly, that the component has the links it should have, and that they are all pointing in the expected direction. These tests do not concern whether the app will succeed in navigating to the target component when the user clicks a link.
对于这些有限的测试目标,使用 RouterLink 桩指令和 RouterOutlet 桩组件 是最佳选择。 依靠真正的路由器会让它们很脆弱。 它们可能因为与组件无关的原因而失败。 例如,一个导航守卫可能防止没有授权的用户访问 HeroListComponent
。 这并不是 AppComponent
的过错,并且无论该组件怎么改变都无法修复这个失败的测试程序。
Stubbing the RouterLink and RouterOutlet is the best option for such limited testing goals. Relying on the real router would make them brittle. They could fail for reasons unrelated to the component. For example, a navigation guard could prevent an unauthorized user from visiting the HeroListComponent
. That's not the fault of the AppComponent
and no change to that component could cure the failed test.
一组不同的测试程序可以探索当存在影响守卫的条件时(比如用户是否已认证和授权),该应用是否如期望般导航。
A different battery of tests can explore whether the application navigates as expected in the presence of conditions that influence guards such as whether the user is authenticated and authorized.
未来对本章的更新将介绍如何使用 RouterTestingModule
来编写这样的测试程序。
A future guide update will explain how to write such tests with the RouterTestingModule
.
使用页面(page)对象
Use a page object
HeroDetailComponent
是带有标题、两个英雄字段和两个按钮的简单视图。
The HeroDetailComponent
is a simple view with a title, two hero fields, and two buttons.
但即使是这么简单的表单,其模板中也涉及到不少复杂性。
But there's plenty of template complexity even in this simple form.
<div *ngIf="hero">
<h2><span>{{hero.name | titlecase}}</span> Details</h2>
<div>
<label>id: </label>{{hero.id}}</div>
<div>
<label for="name">name: </label>
<input id="name" [(ngModel)]="hero.name" placeholder="name" />
</div>
<button (click)="save()">Save</button>
<button (click)="cancel()">Cancel</button>
</div>
这些供练习用的组件需要 ……
Tests that exercise the component need ...
等获取到英雄之后才能让元素出现在 DOM 中。
to wait until a hero arrives before elements appear in the DOM.
一个对标题文本的引用。
a reference to the title text.
一个对 name 输入框的引用,以便对它进行探查和修改。
a reference to the name input box to inspect and set it.
引用两个按钮,以便点击它们。
references to the two buttons so they can click them.
为组件和路由器的方法安插间谍。
spies for some of the component and router methods.
即使是像这样一个很小的表单,也能产生令人疯狂的错综复杂的条件设置和 CSS 元素选择。
Even a small form such as this one can produce a mess of tortured conditional setup and CSS element selection.
可以使用 Page
类来征服这种复杂性。Page
类可以处理对组件属性的访问,并对设置这些属性的逻辑进行封装。
Tame the complexity with a Page
class that handles access to component properties and encapsulates the logic that sets them.
下面是一个供 hero-detail.component.spec.ts
使用的 Page
类
Here is such a Page
class for the hero-detail.component.spec.ts
class Page {
// getter properties wait to query the DOM until called.
get buttons() {
return this.queryAll<HTMLButtonElement>('button');
}
get saveBtn() {
return this.buttons[0];
}
get cancelBtn() {
return this.buttons[1];
}
get nameDisplay() {
return this.query<HTMLElement>('span');
}
get nameInput() {
return this.query<HTMLInputElement>('input');
}
gotoListSpy: jasmine.Spy;
navigateSpy: jasmine.Spy;
constructor(someFixture: ComponentFixture<HeroDetailComponent>) {
// get the navigate spy from the injected router spy object
const routerSpy = someFixture.debugElement.injector.get(Router) as any;
this.navigateSpy = routerSpy.navigate;
// spy on component's `gotoList()` method
const someComponent = someFixture.componentInstance;
this.gotoListSpy = spyOn(someComponent, 'gotoList').and.callThrough();
}
//// query helpers ////
private query<T>(selector: string): T {
return fixture.nativeElement.querySelector(selector);
}
private queryAll<T>(selector: string): T[] {
return fixture.nativeElement.querySelectorAll(selector);
}
}
现在,用来操作和检查组件的重要钩子都被井然有序的组织起来了,可以通过 page
实例来使用它们。
Now the important hooks for component manipulation and inspection are neatly organized and accessible from an instance of Page
.
createComponent
方法会创建一个 page
对象,并在 hero
到来时自动填补空白。
A createComponent
method creates a page
object and fills in the blanks once the hero
arrives.
/** Create the HeroDetailComponent, initialize it, set test variables */
function createComponent() {
fixture = TestBed.createComponent(HeroDetailComponent);
component = fixture.componentInstance;
page = new Page(fixture);
// 1st change detection triggers ngOnInit which gets a hero
fixture.detectChanges();
return fixture.whenStable().then(() => {
// 2nd change detection displays the async-fetched hero
fixture.detectChanges();
});
}
前面小节中的 HeroDetailComponent
测试示范了如何 createComponent
,而 page
让这些测试保持简短而富有表达力。 而且还不用分心:不用等待承诺被解析,不必在 DOM 中找出元素的值才能进行比较。
The HeroDetailComponent tests in an earlier section demonstrate how createComponent
and page
keep the tests short and on message. There are no distractions: no waiting for promises to resolve and no searching the DOM for element values to compare.
还有更多的 HeroDetailComponent
测试可以证明这一点。
Here are a few more HeroDetailComponent
tests to reinforce the point.
it('should display that hero\'s name', () => {
expect(page.nameDisplay.textContent).toBe(expectedHero.name);
});
it('should navigate when click cancel', () => {
click(page.cancelBtn);
expect(page.navigateSpy.calls.any()).toBe(true, 'router.navigate called');
});
it('should save when click save but not navigate immediately', () => {
// Get service injected into component and spy on its`saveHero` method.
// It delegates to fake `HeroService.updateHero` which delivers a safe test result.
const hds = fixture.debugElement.injector.get(HeroDetailService);
const saveSpy = spyOn(hds, 'saveHero').and.callThrough();
click(page.saveBtn);
expect(saveSpy.calls.any()).toBe(true, 'HeroDetailService.save called');
expect(page.navigateSpy.calls.any()).toBe(false, 'router.navigate not called');
});
it('should navigate when click save and save resolves', fakeAsync(() => {
click(page.saveBtn);
tick(); // wait for async save to complete
expect(page.navigateSpy.calls.any()).toBe(true, 'router.navigate called');
}));
it('should convert hero name to Title Case', () => {
// get the name's input and display elements from the DOM
const hostElement = fixture.nativeElement;
const nameInput: HTMLInputElement = hostElement.querySelector('input');
const nameDisplay: HTMLElement = hostElement.querySelector('span');
// simulate user entering a new name into the input box
nameInput.value = 'quick BROWN fOx';
// Dispatch a DOM event so that Angular learns of input value change.
// In older browsers, such as IE, you might need a CustomEvent instead. See
// https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CustomEvent/CustomEvent#Polyfill
nameInput.dispatchEvent(new Event('input'));
// Tell Angular to update the display binding through the title pipe
fixture.detectChanges();
expect(nameDisplay.textContent).toBe('Quick Brown Fox');
});
调用 compileComponents()
Calling compileComponents()
如果你只想使用 CLI 的 ng test
命令来运行测试,那么可以忽略这一节。
You can ignore this section if you only run tests with the CLI ng test
command because the CLI compiles the application before running the tests.
如果你在非 CLI 环境中运行测试,这些测试可能会报错,错误信息如下:
If you run tests in a non-CLI environment, the tests may fail with a message like this one:
Error: This test module uses the component BannerComponent
which is using a "templateUrl" or "styleUrls", but they were never compiled.
Please call "TestBed.compileComponents" before your test.
问题的根源在于这个测试中至少有一个组件引用了外部模板或外部 CSS 文件,就像下面这个版本的 BannerComponent
所示:
The root of the problem is at least one of the components involved in the test specifies an external template or CSS file as the following version of the BannerComponent
does.
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'app-banner',
templateUrl: './banner-external.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./banner-external.component.css']
})
export class BannerComponent {
title = 'Test Tour of Heroes';
}
当 TestBed
视图创建组件时,这个测试失败了:
The test fails when the TestBed
tries to create the component.
beforeEach(async () => {
await TestBed.configureTestingModule({
declarations: [ BannerComponent ],
});
fixture = TestBed.createComponent(BannerComponent);
});
回想一下,这个应用从未编译过。 所以当你调用 createComponent()
的时候,TestBed
就会进行隐式编译。
Recall that the app hasn't been compiled. So when you call createComponent()
, the TestBed
compiles implicitly.
当它的源码都在内存中的时候,这样做没问题。 不过 BannerComponent
需要一些外部文件,编译时必须从文件系统中读取它,而这是一个天生的异步操作。
That's not a problem when the source code is in memory. But the BannerComponent
requires external files that the compiler must read from the file system, an inherently asynchronous operation.
如果 TestBed
继续执行,这些测试就会继续运行,并在编译器完成这些异步工作之前导致莫名其妙的失败。
If the TestBed
were allowed to continue, the tests would run and fail mysteriously before the compiler could finished.
这些错误信息告诉你要使用 compileComponents()
进行显式的编译。
The preemptive error message tells you to compile explicitly with compileComponents()
.
compileComponents()
是异步的
compileComponents() is async
你必须在异步测试函数中调用 compileComponents()
。
You must call compileComponents()
within an asynchronous test function.
如果你忘了把测试函数标为异步的(比如忘了像稍后的代码中那样使用 async
关键字),就会看到下列错误。
If you neglect to make the test function async (e.g., forget to use the async
keyword as described below), you'll see this error message
Error: ViewDestroyedError: Attempt to use a destroyed view
典型的做法是把准备逻辑拆成两个独立的 beforeEach()
函数:
A typical approach is to divide the setup logic into two separate beforeEach()
functions:
异步的
beforeEach()
负责编译组件An async
beforeEach()
that compiles the components同步的
beforeEach()
负责执行其余的准备代码。A synchronous
beforeEach()
that performs the remaining setup.
异步的 beforeEach
The async beforeEach
像下面这样编写第一个异步的 beforeEach
。
Write the first async beforeEach
like this.
beforeEach(async () => {
TestBed
.configureTestingModule({
declarations: [BannerComponent],
})
.compileComponents(); // compile template and css
});
TestBed.configureTestingModule()
方法返回 TestBed
类,所以你可以链式调用其它 TestBed
中的静态方法,比如 compileComponents()
。
The TestBed.configureTestingModule()
method returns the TestBed
class so you can chain calls to other TestBed
static methods such as compileComponents()
.
在这个例子中,BannerComponent
是仅有的待编译组件。 其它例子中可能会使用多个组件来配置测试模块,并且可能引入某些具有其它组件的应用模块。 它们中的任何一个都可能需要外部文件。
In this example, the BannerComponent
is the only component to compile. Other examples configure the testing module with multiple components and may import application modules that hold yet more components. Any of them could require external files.
TestBed.compileComponents
方法会异步编译测试模块中配置过的所有组件。
The TestBed.compileComponents
method asynchronously compiles all components configured in the testing module.
在调用了 compileComponents()
之后就不能再重新配置 TestBed
了。
Do not re-configure the TestBed
after calling compileComponents()
.
调用 compileComponents()
会关闭当前的 TestBed
实例,不再允许进行配置。 你不能再调用任何 TestBed
中的配置方法,既不能调 configureTestingModule()
,也不能调用任何 override...
方法。如果你试图这么做,TestBed
就会抛出错误。
Calling compileComponents()
closes the current TestBed
instance to further configuration. You cannot call any more TestBed
configuration methods, not configureTestingModule()
nor any of the override...
methods. The TestBed
throws an error if you try.
确保 compileComponents()
是调用 TestBed.createComponent()
之前的最后一步。
Make compileComponents()
the last step before calling TestBed.createComponent()
.
同步的 beforeEach
The synchronous beforeEach
第二个同步 beforeEach()
的例子包含剩下的准备步骤, 包括创建组件和查询那些要检查的元素。
The second, synchronous beforeEach()
contains the remaining setup steps, which include creating the component and querying for elements to inspect.
beforeEach(() => {
fixture = TestBed.createComponent(BannerComponent);
component = fixture.componentInstance; // BannerComponent test instance
h1 = fixture.nativeElement.querySelector('h1');
});
测试运行器(runner)会先等待第一个异步 beforeEach
函数执行完再调用第二个。
You can count on the test runner to wait for the first asynchronous beforeEach
to finish before calling the second.
整理过的准备代码
Consolidated setup
你可以把这两个 beforeEach()
函数重整成一个异步的 beforeEach()
。
You can consolidate the two beforeEach()
functions into a single, async beforeEach()
.
compileComponents()
方法返回一个承诺,所以你可以通过把同步代码移到 then(...)
回调中, 以便在编译完成之后 执行那些同步准备任务。
The compileComponents()
method returns a promise so you can perform the synchronous setup tasks after compilation by moving the synchronous code into a then(...)
callback.
beforeEach(async () => {
await TestBed.configureTestingModule({
declarations: [BannerComponent],
}).compileComponents();
fixture = TestBed.createComponent(BannerComponent);
component = fixture.componentInstance;
h1 = fixture.nativeElement.querySelector('h1');
});
compileComponents()
是无害的
compileComponents() is harmless
在不需要 compileComponents()
的时候调用它也不会有害处。
There's no harm in calling compileComponents()
when it's not required.
虽然在运行 ng test
时永远都不需要调用 compileComponents()
,但 CLI 生成的组件测试文件还是会调用它。
The component test file generated by the CLI calls compileComponents()
even though it is never required when running ng test
.
但这篇指南中的这些测试只会在必要时才调用 compileComponents
。
The tests in this guide only call compileComponents
when necessary.
准备模块的 imports
Setup with module imports
此前的组件测试程序使用了一些 declarations
来配置模块,就像这样:
Earlier component tests configured the testing module with a few declarations
like this:
TestBed
.configureTestingModule({declarations: [DashboardHeroComponent]})
DashbaordComponent
非常简单。它不需要帮助。 但是更加复杂的组件通常依赖其它组件、指令、管道和提供者, 所以这些必须也被添加到测试模块中。
The DashboardComponent
is simple. It needs no help. But more complex components often depend on other components, directives, pipes, and providers and these must be added to the testing module too.
幸运的是,TestBed.configureTestingModule
参数与传入 @NgModule
装饰器的元数据一样,也就是所你也可以指定 providers
和 imports
.
Fortunately, the TestBed.configureTestingModule
parameter parallels the metadata passed to the @NgModule
decorator which means you can also specify providers
and imports
.
虽然 HeroDetailComponent
很小,结构也很简单,但是它需要很多帮助。 除了从默认测试模块 CommonModule
中获得的支持,它还需要:
The HeroDetailComponent
requires a lot of help despite its small size and simple construction. In addition to the support it receives from the default testing module CommonModule
, it needs:
FormsModule
里的NgModel
和其它,来进行双向数据绑定NgModel
and friends in theFormsModule
to enable two-way data binding.shared
目录里的TitleCasePipe
The
TitleCasePipe
from theshared
folder.一些路由器服务(测试程序将 stub 伪造它们)
Router services (which these tests are stubbing).
英雄数据访问服务(同样被 stub 伪造了)
Hero data access services (also stubbed).
一种方法是从各个部分配置测试模块,就像这样:
One approach is to configure the testing module from the individual pieces as in this example:
beforeEach(async () => {
const routerSpy = createRouterSpy();
await TestBed
.configureTestingModule({
imports: [FormsModule],
declarations: [HeroDetailComponent, TitleCasePipe],
providers: [
{provide: ActivatedRoute, useValue: activatedRoute},
{provide: HeroService, useClass: TestHeroService},
{provide: Router, useValue: routerSpy},
]
})
.compileComponents();
});
注意,beforeEach()
是异步的,它调用 TestBed.compileComponents
是因为 HeroDetailComponent
有外部模板和 CSS 文件。
Notice that the beforeEach()
is asynchronous and calls TestBed.compileComponents
because the HeroDetailComponent
has an external template and css file.
如前面的调用 compileComponents()
中所解释的那样,这些测试可以运行在非 CLI 环境下,那里 Angular 并不会在浏览器中编译它们。
As explained in Calling compileComponents() above, these tests could be run in a non-CLI environment where Angular would have to compile them in the browser.
导入共享模块
Import a shared module
因为很多应用组件都需要 FormsModule
和 TitleCasePipe
,所以开发者创建了 SharedModule
来把它们及其它常用的部分组合在一起。
Because many app components need the FormsModule
and the TitleCasePipe
, the developer created a SharedModule
to combine these and other frequently requested parts.
这些测试配置也可以使用 SharedModule
,如下所示:
The test configuration can use the SharedModule
too as seen in this alternative setup:
beforeEach(async () => {
const routerSpy = createRouterSpy();
await TestBed
.configureTestingModule({
imports: [SharedModule],
declarations: [HeroDetailComponent],
providers: [
{provide: ActivatedRoute, useValue: activatedRoute},
{provide: HeroService, useClass: TestHeroService},
{provide: Router, useValue: routerSpy},
]
})
.compileComponents();
});
它的导入声明少一些(未显示),稍微干净一些,小一些。
It's a bit tighter and smaller, with fewer import statements (not shown).
导入特性模块
Import a feature module
HeroDetailComponent
是 HeroModule
这个特性模块的一部分,它聚合了更多相互依赖的片段,包括 SharedModule
。 试试下面这个导入了 HeroModule
的测试配置:
The HeroDetailComponent
is part of the HeroModule
Feature Module that aggregates more of the interdependent pieces including the SharedModule
. Try a test configuration that imports the HeroModule
like this one:
beforeEach(async () => {
const routerSpy = createRouterSpy();
await TestBed
.configureTestingModule({
imports: [HeroModule],
providers: [
{provide: ActivatedRoute, useValue: activatedRoute},
{provide: HeroService, useClass: TestHeroService},
{provide: Router, useValue: routerSpy},
]
})
.compileComponents();
});
这样特别清爽。只有 providers
里面的测试替身被保留。连 HeroDetailComponent
声明都消失了。
That's really crisp. Only the test doubles in the providers
remain. Even the HeroDetailComponent
declaration is gone.
事实上,如果你试图声明它,Angular 就会抛出一个错误,因为 HeroDetailComponent
同时声明在了 HeroModule
和 TestBed
创建的 DynamicTestModule
中。
In fact, if you try to declare it, Angular will throw an error because HeroDetailComponent
is declared in both the HeroModule
and the DynamicTestModule
created by the TestBed
.
如果模块中有很多共同依赖,并且该模块很小(这也是特性模块的应有形态),那么直接导入组件的特性模块可以成为配置这些测试的简易方式。
Importing the component's feature module can be the easiest way to configure tests when there are many mutual dependencies within the module and the module is small, as feature modules tend to be.
改写组件的服务提供者
Override component providers
HeroDetailComponent
提供自己的 HeroDetailService
服务。
The HeroDetailComponent
provides its own HeroDetailService
.
@Component({
selector: 'app-hero-detail',
templateUrl: './hero-detail.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./hero-detail.component.css' ],
providers: [ HeroDetailService ]
})
export class HeroDetailComponent implements OnInit {
constructor(
private heroDetailService: HeroDetailService,
private route: ActivatedRoute,
private router: Router) {
}
}
在 TestBed.configureTestingModule
的 providers
中 stub 伪造组件的 HeroDetailService
是不可行的。 这些是测试模块的提供者,而非组件的。组件级别的供应商应该在fixture 级别准备的依赖注入器。
It's not possible to stub the component's HeroDetailService
in the providers
of the TestBed.configureTestingModule
. Those are providers for the testing module, not the component. They prepare the dependency injector at the fixture level.
Angular 会使用自己的注入器来创建这些组件,这个注入器是夹具的注入器的子注入器。 它使用这个子注入器注册了该组件服务提供者(这里是 HeroDetailService
)。
Angular creates the component with its own injector, which is a child of the fixture injector. It registers the component's providers (the HeroDetailService
in this case) with the child injector.
测试没办法从测试夹具的注入器中获取子注入器中的服务,而 TestBed.configureTestingModule
也没法配置它们。
A test cannot get to child injector services from the fixture injector. And TestBed.configureTestingModule
can't configure them either.
Angular 始终都在创建真实 HeroDetailService
的实例。
Angular has been creating new instances of the real HeroDetailService
all along!
如果 HeroDetailService
向远程服务器发出自己的 XHR 请求,这些测试可能会失败或者超时。 这个远程服务器可能根本不存在。
These tests could fail or timeout if the HeroDetailService
made its own XHR calls to a remote server. There might not be a remote server to call.
幸运的是,HeroDetailService
将远程数据访问的责任交给了注入进来的 HeroService
。
Fortunately, the HeroDetailService
delegates responsibility for remote data access to an injected HeroService
.
@Injectable()
export class HeroDetailService {
constructor(private heroService: HeroService) { }
/* . . . */
}
前面的测试配置使用 TestHeroService
替换了真实的 HeroService
,它拦截了发往服务器的请求,并伪造了服务器的响应。
The previous test configuration replaces the real HeroService
with a TestHeroService
that intercepts server requests and fakes their responses.
如果你没有这么幸运怎么办?如果伪造 HeroService
很难怎么办?如果 HeroDetailService
自己发出服务器请求怎么办?
What if you aren't so lucky. What if faking the HeroService
is hard? What if HeroDetailService
makes its own server requests?
TestBed.overrideComponent
方法可以将组件的 providers
替换为容易管理的测试替身,参阅下面的变体准备代码:
The TestBed.overrideComponent
method can replace the component's providers
with easy-to-manage test doubles as seen in the following setup variation:
beforeEach(async () => {
const routerSpy = createRouterSpy();
await TestBed
.configureTestingModule({
imports: [HeroModule],
providers: [
{provide: ActivatedRoute, useValue: activatedRoute},
{provide: Router, useValue: routerSpy},
]
})
// Override component's own provider
.overrideComponent(
HeroDetailComponent,
{set: {providers: [{provide: HeroDetailService, useClass: HeroDetailServiceSpy}]}})
.compileComponents();
});
注意,TestBed.configureTestingModule
不再提供(伪造的)HeroService
,因为并不需要。
Notice that TestBed.configureTestingModule
no longer provides a (fake) HeroService
because it's not needed.
overrideComponent
方法
The overrideComponent method
注意这个 overrideComponent
方法。
Focus on the overrideComponent
method.
.overrideComponent(
HeroDetailComponent,
{set: {providers: [{provide: HeroDetailService, useClass: HeroDetailServiceSpy}]}})
它接受两个参数:要改写的组件类型(HeroDetailComponent
),以及用于改写的元数据对象。 用于改写的元数据对象是一个泛型,其定义如下:
It takes two arguments: the component type to override (HeroDetailComponent
) and an override metadata object. The override metadata object is a generic defined as follows:
type MetadataOverride<T> = {
add?: Partial<T>;
remove?: Partial<T>;
set?: Partial<T>;
};
元数据重载对象可以添加和删除元数据属性的项目,也可以彻底重设这些属性。 这个例子重新设置了组件的 providers
元数据。
A metadata override object can either add-and-remove elements in metadata properties or completely reset those properties. This example resets the component's providers
metadata.
这个类型参数 T
就是你传给 @Component
装饰器的元数据:
The type parameter, T
, is the kind of metadata you'd pass to the @Component
decorator:
selector?: string;
template?: string;
templateUrl?: string;
providers?: any[];
...
提供 间谍桩
(HeroDetailServiceSpy
)
Provide a spy stub (HeroDetailServiceSpy)
这个例子把组件的 providers
数组完全替换成了一个包含 HeroDetailServiceSpy
的新数组。
This example completely replaces the component's providers
array with a new array containing a HeroDetailServiceSpy
.
HeroDetailServiceSpy
是实际 HeroDetailService
服务的桩版本,它伪造了该服务的所有必要特性。 但它既不需要注入也不会委托给低层的 HeroService
服务,因此不用为 HeroService
提供测试替身。
The HeroDetailServiceSpy
is a stubbed version of the real HeroDetailService
that fakes all necessary features of that service. It neither injects nor delegates to the lower level HeroService
so there's no need to provide a test double for that.
通过对该服务的方法进行刺探,HeroDetailComponent
的关联测试将会对 HeroDetailService
是否被调用过进行断言。 因此,这个桩类会把它的方法实现为刺探方法:
The related HeroDetailComponent
tests will assert that methods of the HeroDetailService
were called by spying on the service methods. Accordingly, the stub implements its methods as spies:
class HeroDetailServiceSpy {
testHero: Hero = {id: 42, name: 'Test Hero'};
/* emit cloned test hero */
getHero = jasmine.createSpy('getHero').and.callFake(
() => asyncData(Object.assign({}, this.testHero)));
/* emit clone of test hero, with changes merged in */
saveHero = jasmine.createSpy('saveHero')
.and.callFake((hero: Hero) => asyncData(Object.assign(this.testHero, hero)));
}
改写测试
The override tests
现在,测试程序可以通过操控这个 spy-stub 的 testHero
,直接控制组件的英雄,并确认那个服务方法被调用过。
Now the tests can control the component's hero directly by manipulating the spy-stub's testHero
and confirm that service methods were called.
let hdsSpy: HeroDetailServiceSpy;
beforeEach(async () => {
await createComponent();
// get the component's injected HeroDetailServiceSpy
hdsSpy = fixture.debugElement.injector.get(HeroDetailService) as any;
});
it('should have called `getHero`', () => {
expect(hdsSpy.getHero.calls.count()).toBe(1, 'getHero called once');
});
it('should display stub hero\'s name', () => {
expect(page.nameDisplay.textContent).toBe(hdsSpy.testHero.name);
});
it('should save stub hero change', fakeAsync(() => {
const origName = hdsSpy.testHero.name;
const newName = 'New Name';
page.nameInput.value = newName;
// In older browsers, such as IE, you might need a CustomEvent instead. See
// https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CustomEvent/CustomEvent#Polyfill
page.nameInput.dispatchEvent(new Event('input')); // tell Angular
expect(component.hero.name).toBe(newName, 'component hero has new name');
expect(hdsSpy.testHero.name).toBe(origName, 'service hero unchanged before save');
click(page.saveBtn);
expect(hdsSpy.saveHero.calls.count()).toBe(1, 'saveHero called once');
tick(); // wait for async save to complete
expect(hdsSpy.testHero.name).toBe(newName, 'service hero has new name after save');
expect(page.navigateSpy.calls.any()).toBe(true, 'router.navigate called');
}));
更多的改写
More overrides
TestBed.overrideComponent
方法可以在相同或不同的组件中被反复调用。 TestBed
还提供了类似的 overrideDirective
、overrideModule
和 overridePipe
方法,用来深入并重载这些其它类的部件。
The TestBed.overrideComponent
method can be called multiple times for the same or different components. The TestBed
offers similar overrideDirective
, overrideModule
, and overridePipe
methods for digging into and replacing parts of these other classes.
自己探索这些选项和组合。
