Updated answer:
You're right things don't work as expected when importing everything in a single file.
Digging into things it looks like you're running into some magic that Babel/Jest does to support browser scripts that rely on globals (like AngularJS).
What's happening is that your module's angular variable is not the same as the global angular variable that is visible to angular-mocks.
You can check this by running this at the top of one of your tests:
import * as angular from 'angular'
import 'angular-mocks'
console.log(angular === window.angular); // `false` in Jest!
console.log(angular.mock); // undefined
console.log(window.angular.mock); // `{...}` defined
To work around this you just need to use the global angular variable in your tests.
src/__test__/all-in-one.test.js:
import "angular";
import "angular-mocks";
/*
Work around Jest's window/global mock magic.
Use the global version of `angular` that has been augmented by angular-mocks.
*/
var angular = window.angular;
export var app = angular.module('app', []);
app.directive('myDirective', () => ({
link: (scope, element) => {
console.log('This does log');
scope.content = 'Hi!';
},
template: 'content: {{content}}'
}));
describe('myDirective', function(){
var element;
var scope;
beforeEach(function(){
angular.mock.module(app.name);
});
it('should do something', function(){
inject(function(
$rootScope,
$compile
){
scope = $rootScope.$new();
element = $compile('<my-directive></my-directive>')(scope);
scope.$digest();
});
expect(element.html()).toEqual('content: Hi!');
});
});
Original answer: (This worked because I was accidentally using the global version of angular inside my test.)
The Angular module under test isn't being initialised correctly in your tests.
Your call to beforeEach(app) isn't correct.
Instead you need to use angular.mock.module("moduleName") to initialise your module.
describe('myDirective', () => {
var element, scope
// You need to pass the module name to `angular.mock.module()`
beforeEach(function(){
angular.mock.module(app.name);
});
// Then you can set up and run your tests as normal:
beforeEach(inject(($rootScope, $compile) => {
scope = $rootScope.$new()
element = $compile('<my-directive></my-directive>')(scope)
scope.$digest()
}))
it('should actually do something', () => {
expect(element.html()).toEqual('Hi!')
})
});
And then your test works as expected for me:
PASS src\__test__\app.test.js
myDirective
√ should do something (46ms)
For reference, here is the full app and test:
src/app/app.module.js:
import * as angular from 'angular'
export var app = angular.module('app', []);
app.directive('myDirective', () => ({
link: (scope, element) => {
console.log('This does log');
scope.content = 'Hi!';
},
template: 'content: {{content}}'
}))
src/__test__/app.test.js:
import {app} from "../app/app.module";
import "angular-mocks";
describe('myDirective', function(){
var element;
var scope;
beforeEach(function(){
angular.mock.module(app.name);
});
beforeEach(inject(function(
$rootScope,
$compile
){
scope = $rootScope.$new();
element = $compile('<my-directive></my-directive>')(scope);
scope.$digest();
}));
it('should do something', function(){
expect(element.html()).toEqual('content: Hi!');
});
});
