AngularJS Unit Testing Skill

Overview

This skill specializes in writing, refactoring, and maintaining high-quality unit tests for AngularJS (1.x) applications. It covers controllers, services, filters, directives, HTTP mocking, promises, and dependency injection — everything you need to keep an AngularJS codebase well-tested and reliable.

Note: AngularJS reached end-of-life in December 2021. It receives only critical security fixes. New projects should use Angular 19+. For teams maintaining AngularJS codebases, this skill provides the latest testing patterns, tooling, and migration guidance. See Migration Path at the bottom of this document.

Skill Capabilities

Core Testing Competencies

Controllers: Write tests for controller logic, state management, and event handling
Services: Test factory/service dependencies, HTTP calls, and business logic
Filters: Validate filter transformations and edge cases
Directives: Test directive compilation, linking, and DOM manipulation
HTTP Mocking: Mock HTTP calls using $httpBackend (Jasmine/Karma) or MSW/fetch mocks (Jest)
Promises & Async: Handle $q, deferred objects, and $timeout
Dependency Injection: Test with mocked and real dependencies
Scope Management: Test scope lifecycle, watchers, and event broadcasting
Coverage Analysis: Generate and interpret code coverage reports
Test Organization: Structure tests following best practices and maintainability principles
Framework Choice: Jest for new work and hybrid repos; Jasmine/Karma for existing suites

Testing Patterns

This skill implements the following testing patterns:

AAA Pattern (Arrange-Act-Assert)
- Organize tests with clear setup, execution, and verification phases
- Improves readability and maintainability
Mocking & Spying
- Use Jasmine spies or Jest mocks to mock functions and verify calls
- Mock HTTP responses and service dependencies
- Simulate user interactions
Test Fixtures
- Create reusable test data and helper functions
- Use beforeEach/afterEach for common setup/teardown
- Reduce test duplication
Edge Case Testing
- Test boundary conditions, empty states, and error scenarios
- Validate error handling and graceful degradation
- Test asynchronous operations and race conditions
Snapshot Testing (Jest)
- Capture expected component output
- Detect unintended changes in UI rendering
Deterministic Async
- Prefer fake timers, controlled promises, and isolated state over timing-sensitive assertions

Testing Frameworks & Test Runners

Jasmine (Legacy Default)

Jasmine remains the safest choice when you are preserving an existing AngularJS + Karma suite.

Key Concepts:

describe(): Group related tests into a test suite
it(): Define individual test cases
expect(): Create assertions
beforeEach() / afterEach(): Setup and teardown hooks
spyOn() / jasmine.createSpy(): Mock functions and track calls

Setup:

npm install --save-dev jasmine karma karma-jasmine karma-chrome-launcher

Use when:

You are maintaining an existing Jasmine/Karma suite
You want the smallest possible change set for legacy AngularJS code

Jest (Recommended)

Jest is the modern default for AngularJS test maintenance and migration work. It runs tests in parallel, has stronger mocking APIs, supports snapshots, and includes built-in coverage reporting.

Key Concepts:

describe(): Group related tests
test() or it(): Define individual test cases
expect(): Create assertions
beforeEach() / afterEach(): Setup and teardown hooks
jest.fn(): Create mock functions
jest.spyOn(): Spy on existing methods
jest.mock(): Mock modules

Setup:

npm install --save-dev jest jest-preset-angular angular-mocks
npm install @angular/core

Jest Configuration (jest.config.js):

module.exports = {
  preset: 'jest-preset-angular',
  testEnvironment: 'jsdom',
  setupFilesAfterEnv: ['<rootDir>/setup-jest.js'],
  transform: {
    '^.+\.js$': 'babel-jest'
  },
  collectCoverage: true,
  collectCoverageFrom: ['src/**/*.js', '!src/**/*.spec.js']
};

Use when:

You want faster feedback from parallel execution
You need better mocking, snapshots, and coverage out of the box
You are preparing an AngularJS codebase for an Angular migration

Karma (Legacy Runner)

Karma is the legacy browser test runner traditionally paired with Jasmine. It is still usable for existing suites, but it has seen no major releases since 2021 and should not be the basis for new investment.

Configuration:

karma.conf.js: Main configuration file
Specifies browser environment, files to load, and plugins
Supports code coverage reporting and CI integration

Jest Migration Guide

Use these steps when moving an AngularJS test suite from Jasmine/Karma to Jest:

Install the core tooling
```
npm install --save-dev jest jest-preset-angular angular-mocks
npm install @angular/core
```
Add @angular/core when the repo is hybrid or actively migrating toward Angular.
Create a Jest setup file
- Add setup-jest.js or setup-jest.ts
- Load angular, angular-mocks, and any shared test polyfills there
Configure Jest for AngularJS files
- Use jest.config.js with testEnvironment: 'jsdom'
- Add a transform for legacy JavaScript sources
- Keep template or DOM-specific setup in the Jest bootstrap file

Load AngularJS modules in Jest

beforeEach(() => {
  require('angular');
  require('angular-mocks');
  angular.mock.module('myApp');
});

Migrate spies and stubs
- spyOn(obj, 'method') → jest.spyOn(obj, 'method')
- jasmine.createSpy() → jest.fn()
- jasmine.createSpyObj() → jest.fn() or explicit mock objects
Replace $httpBackend where practical
- Prefer fetch mocks or MSW for new Jest tests
- Keep $httpBackend only for legacy tests that are expensive to rewrite immediately
Reset state between tests
- Use jest.clearAllMocks() / jest.resetAllMocks()
- Recreate AngularJS modules and services in beforeEach()

Handling Environmental Flakiness

Legacy AngularJS suites often fail because the environment is unstable, not because the code is broken.

Common sources of flakiness:

Timing issues and race conditions
Shared state between tests
Browser environment differences
Network-dependent tests and real external services
Time zone, locale, and date-sensitive logic

Deterministic test patterns:

Use fake timers for scheduled work and debounce/throttle logic
Keep async work controlled with explicit promise resolution and digest flushing
Reset shared state, mocks, and module caches in afterEach()
Avoid real browser/network dependencies in unit tests
Prefer fixed test data over generated or time-based values

js-env-sanitizer pattern:

Snapshot and restore environment-dependent globals around each test
Isolate window, document, localStorage, Date, Math.random, feature flags, and DOM mutations
This is especially useful in long-lived AngularJS suites where hidden environment coupling causes intermittent failures

Test Pyramid Guidance for Legacy Codebases

Legacy AngularJS codebases often have an inverted test pyramid: too many end-to-end tests and too few unit tests.

Recommended shape:

Base: many fast unit tests for controllers, services, filters, and directives
Middle: fewer integration tests for module wiring, routing, and API boundaries
Top: a small number of end-to-end tests for critical user journeys only

Guidance:

Shift coverage toward unit tests first
Keep integration tests as the middle layer, not the base
Use e2e tests sparingly because they are slower and more environment-sensitive

Test Structure

Jasmine Test Structure (Legacy Default)

All Jasmine tests follow this standard structure:

describe('Component Name', function() {
  var componentUnderTest, dependencies;

  beforeEach(module('myApp'));

  beforeEach(inject(function($injector) {
    componentUnderTest = $injector.get('ComponentName');
    dependencies = $injector.get('DependencyName');
  }));

  afterEach(function() {
    // Cleanup code
  });

  describe('Functionality Group', function() {
    it('should do something specific', function() {
      // Arrange
      var input = 'test';

      // Act
      var result = componentUnderTest.method(input);

      // Assert
      expect(result).toBe('expected');
    });
  });
});

Jest Test Structure (Recommended)

Jest tests follow a similar structure with modern mocking and cleaner teardown:

describe('Component Name', () => {
  let componentUnderTest;
  let dependency;

  beforeEach(() => {
    jest.clearAllMocks();
    // Setup code or mock initialization
    dependency = { method: jest.fn() };
    componentUnderTest = require('./component');
  });

  afterEach(() => {
    // Cleanup code
  });

  describe('Functionality Group', () => {
    test('should do something specific', () => {
      // Arrange
      const input = 'test';

      // Act
      const result = componentUnderTest.method(input, dependency);

      // Assert
      expect(result).toBe('expected');
    });
  });
});

Key Differences:

Jest uses jest.fn() / jest.spyOn() instead of Jasmine spies for modern test code
Jest uses test() or it() (both work)
Jest auto-discovers .spec.js and .test.js files
Jest provides built-in snapshot testing and code coverage

Best Practices

1. Test Organization

One test file per component (e.g., controller.spec.js for controller.js)
Organize tests into logical groups using describe()
Use meaningful test names that describe expected behavior

2. DRY Principle (Don't Repeat Yourself)

Extract common setup into beforeEach() blocks
Create reusable test data fixtures
Use helper functions to reduce duplication

3. Test Independence

Each test should be independent and runnable in any order
Clean up resources in afterEach()
Avoid shared state between tests

4. Realistic Mocks

Mock external dependencies realistically
Use actual data structures when possible
Avoid overly simplified or unrealistic mocks

5. Comprehensive Coverage

Aim for 80%+ code coverage
Test happy paths, edge cases, and error scenarios
Test async operations and race conditions

6. Performance

Keep tests fast
Use in-memory mocks instead of real HTTP requests
Avoid unnecessary database operations

7. Maintainability

Write tests that are easy to understand
Use the AAA pattern for clarity
Document complex test logic with comments
Refactor tests when the component changes

Common Testing Scenarios

Testing Controllers

describe('UserController', function() {
  var $scope, controller;

  beforeEach(module('myApp'));
  beforeEach(inject(function($controller, $rootScope) {
    $scope = $rootScope.$new();
    controller = $controller('UserController', {
      $scope: $scope
    });
  }));

  it('should initialize with default values', function() {
    expect($scope.users).toBeDefined();
  });

  it('should load users on init', function() {
    expect($scope.users.length).toBeGreaterThan(0);
  });
});

Testing Services

describe('UserService', function() {
  var userService, $httpBackend;

  beforeEach(module('myApp'));
  beforeEach(inject(function(_UserService_, _$httpBackend_) {
    userService = _UserService_;
    $httpBackend = _$httpBackend_;
  }));

  afterEach(function() {
    $httpBackend.ver
