Angular + Jest: Can't resolve all parameters for AppComponent: (?)

monorepo

I am operating inside a Typescript Monorepo. I want to add an Angular 8 frontend with Jest testing to the Monorepo. But I am encountering some issues.

I am using

Angular CLI: 8.3.5

What I did

I will use this repository as a starting point!

1. Create Angular Application

Then in <root>/services I ran:

ng new frontend

After the Angular application was created I was able to run ng test with the following result:

ng test default

Everything works fine.

2. Add Jest

I am using https://github.com/briebug/jest-schematic to easily add Jest to my Angular application

yarn global add @briebug/jest-schematic
ng add @briebug/jest-schematic

This results in the following changes

changes

Running jest results in the following error:

$ jest
 FAIL  src/app/app.component.spec.ts
  ● Test suite failed to run

    File not found: <rootDir>/src/tsconfig.spec.json (resolved as: /home/flo/Desktop/stackoverflow-monorepo-angular-jest/services/frontend/src/tsconfig.spec.json)

Test Suites: 1 failed, 1 total

Snapshots:   0 total
Time:        1.267s
Ran all test suites.

3. Fixing Errors

Jest tries to find the tsconfig.spec.json in the wrong folder. Fortunately, I found a fix. I needed to change the jest.config.js

module.exports = {
  preset: 'jest-preset-angular',
  setupFilesAfterEnv: ['<rootDir>/src/setup-jest.ts'],
  globals: {
    'ts-jest': {
      tsConfig: '<rootDir>/tsconfig.spec.json',
      diagnostics: false,
      stringifyContentPathRegex: '\\.html$',
      astTransformers: [require.resolve('jest-preset-angular/InlineHtmlStripStylesTransformer')],
    },
  },
};

Now when I run jest it works:

jest pass default

4. My Issue

I've now added the Angular HttClient to my AppComponent:

// app.component.ts

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.css'],
})
export class AppComponent {
  title = 'frontend';
  constructor(private http: HttpClient) {}
}

I've also added the HttpClientModule to app.module.ts and to the imports in the app.component.spec.ts.

// app.module.ts

import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';

import { AppRoutingModule } from './app-routing.module';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [AppComponent],
  imports: [BrowserModule, AppRoutingModule, HttpClientModule],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent],
})
export class AppModule {}

// app.component.spec.ts

import { TestBed, async } from '@angular/core/testing';
import { RouterTestingModule } from '@angular/router/testing';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { HttpClientModule, HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';

describe('AppComponent', () => {
  beforeEach(async(() => {
    TestBed.configureTestingModule({
      imports: [RouterTestingModule, HttpClientModule],
      declarations: [AppComponent],
    }).compileComponents();
  }));

  it('should create the app', () => {
    const fixture = TestBed.createComponent(AppComponent);
    const app = fixture.debugElement.componentInstance;
    expect(app).toBeTruthy();
  });

  it(`should have as title 'frontend'`, () => {
    const fixture = TestBed.createComponent(AppComponent);
    const app = fixture.debugElement.componentInstance;
    expect(app.title).toEqual('frontend');
  });

  it('should render title', () => {
    const fixture = TestBed.createComponent(AppComponent);
    fixture.detectChanges();
    const compiled = fixture.debugElement.nativeElement;
    expect(compiled.querySelector('.content span').textContent).toContain('frontend app is running!');
  });
});

However, when running jest, I get the following errors:

$ jest
 FAIL  src/app/app.component.spec.ts
  AppComponent
    ✕ should create the app (449ms)
    ✕ should have as title 'frontend' (10ms)
    ✕ should render title (10ms)

The tests run just fine when using Jasmine + Karma. It seems like something went wrong with the dependency injection when using jest for testing.

You can find the repository here: https://github.com/flolude/stackoverflow-monorepo-angular-jest/commit/9a2d8cac0dfa25a5f6620f38238c3f577b2acb63 to try it yourself.

Just set the emitDecoratorMetadata to true in your tsconfig.spec.json.

This allows the ts-jest not to lose the metadata during the TypeScript transpilation. This issue came unexpected for jest-preset-angular developer after the Angular updated to version 8.1

Here's the issue on jest-preset-angular GitHub: https://github.com/thymikee/jest-preset-angular/issues/288
