respond-ng

Simple Mocking API for Angular 2's Http Service

To use, install respond-ng with npm:

npm install respond-ng --save-dev

Import the providers and Respond:

import HTTP_MOCK_PROVIDERS, {Respond} from 'respond-ng';

Create an injector, then use the injector to get an instance of Respond and the service you are testing:

let respond: Respond, auth: AuthService;

beforeEach(function(){
  const injector = Injector.resolveAndCreate([
    HTTP_MOCK_PROVIDERS,
    AuthService
  ]);

  respond = injector.get(Respond);
  auth = injector.get(AuthService);
});

Write simple response mocks using Respond's fluent API:

it('should check if the user is authenticated', function(done){
  respond.ok({ authenticated: true }).when.get('/api/authenticated');

  auth.check().subscribe((res) => {
    expect(res.authenticated).toBe(true);
    done();
  });
});

After each test, verify there are no outstanding requests:

afterEach(() => respond.verifyComplete());
