Angular unit Testing : TypeError: Cannot read property 'root' of undefined


I'm working on unit testing under my Angular app.

My version of Angular is 4.0.0.

My component look like this:

component.ts:

import { GdfaClientService } from '../../../service/gdfa-client.service';
import { SharedclientService } from '../../../service/sharedclient.service';
import { Client } from '../../model/client';
import { RouteNavigator } from '../../util/route-navigator';
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import {MonitoringService} from '../../../service/monitoring.service';
@Component({
  selector: 'app-queue-again',
  templateUrl: './queue-again.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./queue-again.component.css'],
})
export class QueueAgainComponent implements OnInit {

  //-- variables --//
  showError = false;
  queueChoices = [];
  selectedQueue;
  selectedReason;
  requestInProgress = false;
  client: Client;
  errorMessage: string;
  queues: any;
  bankNotAllowed: boolean = false;

  constructor(private sharedclientService: SharedclientService, private gdfaClientService: GdfaClientService
    , private router: RouteNavigator, private monitoringService: MonitoringService) { }

  ngOnInit() {
    this.client = this.sharedclientService.getShared360Client();
    this.getQueues();
    this.bankNotAllowed = this.sharedclientService.bankNotAllowed;
  }


  goToPrevious() {
    this.router.goToHomeAccordingToProfile();
  }

  queueAgain() {
    let currentNd = "";
    let currentUniverse = "";
    let currentCuid = "";
    if (!this.selectedReason) {
      return;
    }
    this.requestInProgress = true;

    let reg = {
      registrationId: this.client.registration.gdfaId,
      gdfaQueueId: this.selectedQueue.id,
      gdfaReasonId: this.selectedReason.id,
      firstProfile: (this.client.firstProfile ? true : false)
    };

    this.gdfaClientService.queueAgain(reg).then(any => {
        currentCuid = this.client.clientIdentity.customerId;

        if (this.client.fromAdvSearch == undefined || this.client.fromAdvSearch == false) {

      currentNd = this.client.nd;
      if (currentNd != undefined && currentNd != "") {

          currentUniverse = "";
        }
        if (currentNd.substring(0, 2) == "06" || currentNd.substring(0, 2) == "07") {
          currentUniverse = "Mobile";
        } else {
          currentUniverse = "Fixe";
        }
      }
        }
      this.trackReinsertClient(currentCuid, currentNd, currentUniverse);
      this.requestInProgress = false;
      this.showError = false;
      this.sharedclientService.setShared360Client(new Client());
      this.goToPrevious();
    })
      .catch(error => {
        this.requestInProgress = false;
        this.showError = true;
        switch (error.status) {
          case 403:
            this.errorMessage = "Erreur lors de la réinjection du client : utilisateur inconnu";

          default:

            console.log(this.errorMessage);
        }
      });
  };


  trackReinsertClient(cuid, nd, universe) {
    let uri = "/api/gdfa/client/registration/reinsert";
    let httpMethod = "PUT";
    let name = "réinjection d'un client dans la file d'attente";
    console.log('trackReinsertClient <' + cuid + '>');
    this.monitoringService.trackingAction(name, uri, httpMethod, null, cuid, nd, universe);

  }

  selectQueue(queue) {
    this.selectedQueue = queue;
    this.selectedReason = false;

As you can see I'm not using routeLink.

Within my test file config I've done this:

component.spec.ts:

import {async, ComponentFixture, TestBed, tick, fakeAsync} from '@angular/core/testing';
import {QueueAgainComponent} from './queue-again.component';
import {OrderByPipe} from 'app/home/pipe/order-by.pipe';
import {SharedclientService} from 'app/service/sharedclient.service';
import {GdfaClientService} from 'app/service/gdfa-client.service';
import {AuthHttp, AuthConfig, AUTH_PROVIDERS, provideAuth} from 'angular2-jwt';
import {HttpModule} from '@angular/http';
import {EnvVarsService} from 'app/service/env-vars.service';
import {RouteNavigator} from 'app/home/util/route-navigator';
import {Router} from '@angular/router';
import {Observable} from 'rxjs/Observable';
import * as QueueAgainMocks from 'TU/mocks/queue-again-mocks';
import {RouterTestingModule} from '@angular/router/testing';
import { NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA } from '@angular/core';

describe('QueueAgainComponent', () => {
    let comp: QueueAgainComponent;
    let fixture: ComponentFixture<QueueAgainComponent>;
    let sharedclientService: SharedclientService;
    let gdfaClientService: GdfaClientService;
    let getShared360Client: jasmine.Spy;
    let queueAgain: jasmine.Spy;
    let client = QueueAgainMocks.CUSTOMER_MOCK;
    let selectedQueue = QueueAgainMocks.SELECTED_QUEUE_MOCK;
    let selectedReason = QueueAgainMocks.SELECTED_REASON;
    let mockRouter = {
        navigate: jasmine.createSpy('navigate')
    };

    // TestBed preparation (async)
    beforeEach(async(() => {
        TestBed.configureTestingModule({
            imports: [HttpModule , RouterTestingModule],
            declarations: [QueueAgainComponent, OrderByPipe],
            providers: [SharedclientService, GdfaClientService, AuthHttp, EnvVarsService, RouteNavigator,
                {provide: Router, useValue: mockRouter},
                provideAuth({
                    headerName: 'Authorization',
                    headerPrefix: 'bearer',
                    tokenName: 'token',
                    tokenGetter: (() => localStorage.getItem('id_token')),
                    globalHeaders: [{'Content-Type': 'application/json'}],
                    noJwtError: true
                })
            ],
            schemas: [ NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA ]
        }).compileComponents();
    }));

    // Fixture & Spies declarations
    beforeEach(() => {
        // Creation of the component fixture
        fixture = TestBed.createComponent(QueueAgainComponent);
        comp = fixture.componentInstance;
        fixture.detectChanges();  // this line will call components ngOnInit() method


        // Getting Services instances from fixture
        sharedclientService = fixture.debugElement.injector.get(SharedclientService);
        gdfaClientService = fixture.debugElement.injector.get(GdfaClientService);

        // Call of fake methods of `sharedclientService` from the AlertServiceSpy
        getShared360Client = spyOn(sharedclientService, 'getShared360Client').and.returnValue(client);
        // Call of fake methods of `gdfaClientService` from the AlertServiceSpy
        queueAgain = spyOn(gdfaClientService, 'queueAgain').and.callFake((reg) => {
            return Observable.of('ok');
        });

        comp.ngOnInit();
    });
    // Test case of component compilation
    it('should be defined', () => {
        expect(comp).toBeDefined();
    });
});

Although I've imported NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA and I've used a mockRouter, it seems that something is still going wrong with routing with this error:

From the last line of the log that points on the 53:27 line which is exactly:

fixture = TestBed.createComponent(QueueAgainComponent);

So it seems that it's not able to create the fixture.

Any ideas?


Solution

  • I had the same problem, just figured it out. Remove the line:

    {provide: Router, useValue: mockRouter}
    

    and it will work.

    The thing is when you import RouterTestingModule you should remove all router mocked providers, same for ActivatedRoute, and other services provided by RouterModule in @angular/router.
