angularjs-enzyme

:rotating_light: AngularJS Enzyme

Unit testing utility for AngularJS (1.x), heavily inspired by the wonderful Enzyme API. :heart:
Therefore, it is well suited for organisations and individuals moving from AngularJS to React. It is test framework and runner agnostic, but the examples are written using Jest syntax.

An example showing the utility in use can be found here.

Available methods:
mount
mockComponent

Returned classes:
TestElementWrapper
mock

Usage

npm install angularjs-enzyme --save-dev

Module context

import { mount, mockComponent } from 'angularjs-enzyme';

Non-module context

1. Include the script from node_modules/angularjs-enzyme/dist/angularjs-enzyme.js.
2. Use the utility from the global context under the name angularjsEnzyme.

API

mount(tagName[, props]) => TestElementWrapper

Mounts the component with tagName (String) and optional props (Object) and returns a TestElementWrapper with numerous helper methods. The props are attached to the $ctrl available in the template scope. Only components with one-way bound props (<) can be mounted.

Example

some-component.html

<h1>{{ $ctrl.title }}</h1>
<p>{{ $ctrl.text }}</p>

import 'angular';
import 'angular-mocks';
import { mount } from 'angularjs-enzyme';

describe('Component under test', () => {
  let component;
  beforeEach(() => {
    angular.mock.module('moduleOfComponentUnderTest');
    component = mount('some-component', { title: 'A title', text: 'Some text' });
  });
});

mockComponent(name) => mock

By default, AngularJS renders the whole component tree. This function mocks a child component with name (String) in the component under test and returns a mock. The child component won't be compiled and its controller won't be invoked, enabling testing the component under test in isolation. In addition, the returned mock has methods useful for testing.

Example

import 'angular';
import 'angular-mocks';
import { mockComponent } from 'angularjs-enzyme';

describe('Component under test', () => {
  let childComponent;
  beforeEach(() => {
    angular.mock.module('moduleOfComponentUnderTest');
    childComponent = mockComponent('child-component'); // ⇦ after module, before inject
  });
});

TestElementWrapper API

.length => Number

The number of elements in the wrapper.

Example

some-component.html

<ul>
  <li>1</li>
  <li>2</li>
  <li>3</li>
</ul>

it('has three list items', () => {
  expect(component.find('li').length).toBe(3);
});

.html() => String

Returns HTML of the wrapper. It should only be used for logging purposes, in tests other methods should be preferred.

Example

some-component.html

<h1>Some title</h1>

it('renders title as html', () => {
  expect(component.html()).toBe('<h1>Some title</h1>');
});

.text() => String

Example

some-component.html

<h1>Some title</h1>
<p>Some text</p>

it('has paragraph text', () => {
  expect(component.find('p').text()).toBe('Some text');
});

.hasClass(className) => Boolean

Returns whether the wrapper has a class with className (String) or not.

Example

some-component.html

<button class="success">Pay</button>

it('has success class', () => {
  expect(component.find('button').hasClass('success')).toBe(true);
});

it('does not have error class', () => {
  expect(component.find('button').hasClass('error')).toBe(false);
});

.exists() => Boolean

Returns whether or not the wrapper contains any elements.

Example

some-component.html

<button>Pay</button>

it('has button', () => {
  expect(component.find('button').exists()).toBe(true);
});

it('does not have link', () => {
  expect(component.find('a').exists()).toBe(false);
});

.find(selector) => TestElementWrapper

Returns a TestElementWrapper (for chaining) with every element matching the selector (String).

Example

some-component.html

<div class="left">
  <a href="https://neopets.com">Wrong</a>
  <a href="https://transferwise.com">Wrong</a>
</div>
<div class="right">
  <a href="https://neopets.com">Wrong</a>
  <a href="https://transferwise.com">Correct</a>
</div>

it('has one transferwise link with corrext text on the right', () => {
  const link = component.find('.right a[href="https://transferwise.com"]');

  expect(link.length).toBe(1);
  expect(link.text()).toBe('Correct');
});

.first() => TestElementWrapper

Returns a TestElementWrapper (for chaining) for the first element.

Example

some-component.html

<button class="btn btn-primary">Balance</button>
<button class="btn btn-primary">Bank transfer</button>
<button class="btn btn-primary">Card</button>

it('has balance as the first button', () => {
  const firstButton = component.find('button').first();
  expect(firstButton.text()).toBe('Balance');
});

.at(index) => TestElementWrapper

Returns a TestElementWrapper (for chaining) for element at index (Number).

Example

some-component.html

<button class="btn btn-primary">Balance</button>
<button class="btn btn-primary">Bank transfer</button>
<button class="btn btn-primary">Card</button>

it('has card as third button', () => {
  const thirdButton = component.find('button').at(2);
  expect(thirdButton.text()).toBe('Card');
});

.map(fn) => Array<Any>

Maps the nodes in the wrapper to another array using fn (Function).

Example

some-component.html

<ul>
  <li>One</li>
  <li>Two</li>
  <li>Three</li>
</ul>

it('has three list items with their number as a word', () => {
  const items = component.find('li');

  expect(items.map(item => item.text())).toEqual(['One', 'Two', 'Three']);
});

.props() => Object

Returns all wrapper props/attributes.

Example

some-component.html

<a href="https://transferwise.com" target="_blank">Send money</a>

it('has transferwise link that opens in a new tab', () => {
  expect(component.find('a').props()).toEqual({
    href: 'https://transferwise.com',
    target: '_blank',
  });
});

.prop(key) => String

Returns wrapper prop/attribute value with provided key (String).

Example

some-component.html

<a href="https://transferwise.com">Send money</a>

it('has transferwise link', () => {
  expect(component.find('a').prop('href')).toBe('https://transferwise.com');
});

.simulate(event[, data]) => Self

Calls an event handler on the wrapper for passed event with data (optional), updates the view, and returns wrapper for chaining.

NOTE: event should be written in camelCase and without the on present in the event handler name. Currently, change and click events are supported, with change requiring an event format.

Example

some-component.html

<input ng-model="$ctrl.text" />
<p>{{ $ctrl.text }}</p>
<button ng-click="$ctrl.onClick($ctrl.text)">Click me</button>

let component;
let onClick;
beforeEach(() => {
  onClick = jest.fn();
  component = mount('some-component', { text: 'Original text', onClick });
});

it('calls click handler on button click', () => {
  const button = component.find('button');

  expect(onClick).not.toBeCalled();
  button.simulate('click');
  expect(onClick).toBeCalledWith('Original text');
});

it('changes text on input change', () => {
  const input = component.find('input');

  const text = () => component.find('p').text();

  expect(text()).toBe('Original text');
  input.simulate('change', { target: { value: 'New text' } });
  expect(text()).toBe('New text');
});

.setProps(props) => Self

Merges props (Object) with existing props and updates view to reflect them, returning itself for chaining.

Example

some-component.html

<h1>{{ $ctrl.title }}</h1>
<p>{{ $ctrl.text }}</p>

it('changes title and text when props change', () => {
  const component = mount('some-component', {
    title: 'Original title',
    text: 'Original text',
  });

  const title = () => component.find('h1').text();
  const text = () => component.find('p').text();

  expect(title()).toBe('Original title');
  expect(text()).toBe('Original text');
  component.setProps({ title: 'New title', text: 'New text' });
  expect(title()).toBe('New title');
  expect(text()).toBe('New text');
});

mock API

.exists() => Boolean

Returns whether or not the mocked component exists in the rendered template.

Example

some-component.html

<button ng-click="$ctrl.show = !$ctrl.show">
  Show child
</button>
<child-component ng-if="$ctrl.show"></child-component>

let component;
beforeEach(() => {
  component = mount('some-component');
});

it('allows toggling child component', () => {
  const button = component.find('button');

  expect(childComponent.exists()).toBe(false);
  button.simulate('click');
  expect(childComponent.exists()).toBe(true);
  button.simulate('click');
  expect(childComponent.exists()).toBe(false);
});

.props() => Object

Returns all mocked component props.

Example

some-component.html

<div>Something else</div>
<child-component
  some-prop="'A string'",
  some-other-prop="12345"
></child-component>

let component;
beforeEach(() => {
  component = mount('some-component');
});

it('passes props to child component', () => {
  expect(childComponent.props()).toEqual({
    someProp: 'A string',
    someOtherProp: 12345,
  });
});

.prop(key) => Any

Returns mocked component prop value with the provided key (String).

Example

some-component.html

<div>Something else</div>
<child-component some-prop="'A string'"></child-component>

let component;
beforeEach(() => {
  component = mount('some-component');
});

it('passes some prop to child component', () => {
  expect(childComponent.prop('someProp')).toBe('A string');
});

.simulate(event[, data]) => Self

Calls an event handler on the mocked component for passed event with data (optional), updates the view, and returns mocked component for chaining.

NOTE: event should be written in camelCase and without the on present in the event handler name. So, to call onSomePropChange, .simulate('somePropChange') should be used.

Example

some-component.html

<div>Something else</div>
<child-component
  on-some-prop-change="onSomePropChange"
></child-component>

it('calls parent component with data when child component is called', () => {
  const onSomePropChange = jest.fn();
  mount('some-component', { onSomePropChange });

  expect(onSomePropChange).not.toBeCalled();
  childComponent.simulate('somePropChange', 'New value');
  expect(onSomePropChange).toBeCalledWith('New value');
});
