Error: [$injector:unpr] Unknown provider: $scopeProvider <- $scope Error

Question

I am getting this common error Error: [$injector:unpr] Unknown provider: $scopeProvider <- $scope with my test case . I know this is a common one , and there are few other threads explaining with solutions . But i really couldn't come up with a answer to my problem . Can anyone point me in the right direction?

ViewMeetingCtrl ,

(function () {
    'use strict';
    angular.module('MyApp').controller('ViewMeetingCtrl', ViewMeetingCtrl);

    ViewMeetingCtrl.$inject = ['$scope', '$state', '$http', '$translate', 'notificationService', 'meetingService', '$modal', 'meeting', 'attachmentService'];

    function ViewMeetingCtrl($scope, $state, $http, $translate, notificationService, meetingService, $modal, meeting, attachmentService) {
        $scope.meeting = meeting;
        $scope.test = "testvalue";
        if (meeting.Status == 'Cancelled')
        {
            $scope.actionButtons = false;
        }
        else
        {
            $scope.actionButtons = true;
        }

        //more code
    }
})();

MeetingCtrlSpec.js

describe('ViewMeetingCtrl', function () {
    var $rootScope, scope, $controller, meetingService;

    beforeEach(angular.mock.module('MyApp'));

    beforeEach(inject(function ($rootScope, $controller, meetingService) {
        scope = $rootScope.$new();
        $controller('ViewMeetingCtrl', {
            meetingService: meetingService,
            '$rootScope' : $rootScope,
            scope: scope
        });       

    }));

    it('should change greeting value if name value is changed', function () {
        //some assertion
    });
});

Answer 1

Replace

    $controller('ViewMeetingCtrl', {
        meetingService: meetingService,
        '$rootScope' : $rootScope,
        scope: scope
    }); 

by

    $controller('ViewMeetingCtrl', {
        meetingService: meetingService,
        $scope: scope
    });

The controller must be injected with an argument named $scope, not scope. And $rootScope is not part of the injected collaborators of your controller.
