I want to unit test a directive which looks like this:
angular.module('myApp', [])
.directive('myTest', function () {
return {
restrict: 'E',
scope: { message: '='},
replace: true,
template: '<div ng-if="message"><p>{{message}}</p></div>',
link: function (scope, element, attrs) {
}
};
});
Here is my failing test:
describe('myTest directive:', function () {
var scope, compile, validHTML;
validHTML = '<my-test message="message"></my-test>';
beforeEach(module('myApp'));
beforeEach(inject(function($compile, $rootScope){
scope = $rootScope.$new();
compile = $compile;
}));
function create() {
var elem, compiledElem;
elem = angular.element(validHTML);
compiledElem = compile(elem)(scope);
scope.$digest();
return compiledElem;
}
it('should have a scope on root element', function () {
scope.message = 'not empty';
var el = create();
console.log(el.text());
expect(el.text()).toBeDefined();
expect(el.text()).not.toBe('');
});
});
Can you spot why it's failing?
