Angular Testing In TDD - Writing a Feature Guided By a Responsible Maniac
summary
Live-coding shows a real feature: a matching quiz component for a LlamaDate site built with strict TDD and a custom test driver that replaces verbose TestBed calls, a spy generator for faking services, and a setup factory API. Tests run red→green cycles, cover success and error flows, enable safe refactors, and end with 32 passing tests. The demo wires a fake service to emit questions, adds three answer buttons, verifies DOM bindings, and proves the feature works while keeping tests readable.
