2. Easy Development, Easy Testing
– AngularJS Test Frameworks
and Tools
HTML enhanced for web apps is unquestionably AngularJS. It is maintained and promoted by
Google as an open source web application framework for web applications requiring HTML, CSS
and JavaScripts at the client side. The MVC or the model view controller makes both
development and testing easier by enhancing web apps.
Angular JS extends the HTML vocabulary to facilitate the extending of HTML vocabulary for
dynamic views. This enhancement is a boost for traditional HTML which is known to be the best
for static documents. AngularJS libraries read HTML containing tag attributes to follow the
directives from the tags. The input or output of the page is bound to a model represented by
JavaScript variables whose values are manipulated from Static or Dynamic JSON resources. The
two way data binding makes it an effective tool for efficiently building client-side web apps.
Test Frameworks and Tools for AngularJS
The numerous AngularJS tools and test frameworks enable a conducive environment for the
much desired perfect test.
Karma is the Test Runner for Angular JS which can be used to test on real devices. It is an open
source framework developed for and maintained by the open source community at GitHub. It
provides Easy debugging directly from IDE via WebStorm or Google Chrome and provides
3. continuous integration with Jenkins, Travis or Semaphore, describing tests with Jasmine,
Mocha, QUnit or write a simple adapter for any framework of choice.
Angular Mocks is a Namespace from ‘angular-mocks.js’ which contains testing related code
providing support for injecting and mocking Angular services in unit tests.
Protractor is an E2E test framework for Angular apps. It launches the app in a browser and
interacts with it via Selenium for testing. On the other hand we have Mocha, a feature-rich
JavaScript test framework running on node.js and the browser for asynchronous testing. Mocha
tests run serially, allowing for flexible and accurate reporting, while mapping uncaught
exceptions to the correct test cases. Chai is a BDD / TDD assertion library for node.js and the
browser that can be coupled with any javascript testing framework. For extending Chai, we
have Chai as Promised; a Chai plug-in really helpful for dealing with function calls that return a
promise. It extends Chai with assertions about promises.
Browseify allows reducing modules of code between files in the project by bundling up all
dependencies. We also have Lodash a Utility Library delivering consistency, customization and
performance. These utilities are used to extend JavaScript and make it easier to work with.
Sinon is a standalone test spies, stubs and mocks for JavaScript; with no dependencies and
works with any unit testing framework. It is a Stubbing and mocking library. It is used to mock
out directive and controller dependencies in unit tests, and to check that functions are being
called with the correct arguments.
These numerous frameworks assert the competency of a JavaScript by providing a much
desired competent test environment.
