How to mock an AJAX request?
angularjs, end-to-end, jasmine, testing
Solution
You should use $httpBackend from ngMockE2E module to mock http requests. Take a look at the docs.
Problem
What is the simplest way to modify scenarios.js to mock an AJAX request during an end-to-end test? ``` <!doctype html> <html lang="en" ng-app="myApp"> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>My Test AngularJS App</title> <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.0.2/angular.min.js"></script> <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.0.2/angular-resource.min.js"></script> <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> angular.module('myApp', ['ngResource']); function PlayerController($scope,$resource){ $scope.player = $resource('player.json').get(); } </script> </head> <body ng-controller="PlayerController"> <p>Hello {{player.name}}</p> </body> </html> ``` Player gets correctly fetched from a file named player.json on the server and the following test passes. How do I pass different json in to this test and prevent the fetch back to the server? ``` /* How do I pass in player.json -> {"name":"Chris"} */ describe('my app', function() { beforeEach(function() { browser().navigateTo('../../app/index.html'); }); it('should load player from player.json', function() { expect(element('p:first').text()). toMatch("Hello Chris"); pause(); }); }); ```
