Techniques and practices for testing Angular 2
summary
Shows concrete recipes for Angular testing using Karma + Jasmine for unit tests, Protractor for end-to-end, and optional Wallaby in the IDE; demos use the Angular CLI and a small Chuck Norris app that successfully passes tests. Covers fakes vs Jasmine spies (verify calls and args), using TestBed to get a TestBed fixture/debugElement and query the DOM, and two async strategies: fakeAsync/tick (simulates a two‑second delay) and async/whenStable (returns a promise). All examples run live and the assertions pass.
