I am referring the stackoverflow article How do I mock a service that returns promise in Angularjs Jasmine unit test?. And found it useful in my scenario as well. But I want to load and return object from json file as mock instead of explicit object. So is it possible to achieve that?
I am referring below response:
describe('testing a method() on a service', function () {
var mock, service
function init(){
return angular.mock.inject(function ($injector,, _serviceUnderTest_) {
mock = $injector.get('service_that_is_being_mocked');;
service = __serviceUnderTest_;
});
}
beforeEach(module('yourApp'));
beforeEach(init());
it('that has a then', function () {
//arrange
var spy= spyOn(mock, 'actionBeingCalled').and.callFake(function () {
return {
then: function (callback) {
return callback({'foo' : "bar"});
}
};
});
//act
var result = service.actionUnderTest(); // does cleverness
//assert
expect(spy).toHaveBeenCalled();
});
});
