Top 5 Testing and Mocking AngularJS Modules

Here is what we think are the Top 5 Testing and Mocking AngularJS Modules at the moment. There are many forms of testing with Angular apps such as integration/e2e testing, unit testing, performance testing etc… how do you keep on top of it all? Well AngularJS was designed with Testing in mind – dependency injection allows us to inject “mock” versions of services, driective and other ng omponents to simulate scenarios and output test results. There is also concerns about cross browser testing such as does it render correctly? or does it function correctly?

To help you get started you could take a look at Testing an ng Directive or Introduction to Testing in AngularJS. I would suggest trying out one of the testing modules below and have a play around with running different types of tests. From there you’ll be able to start writing your own tests as you code new modules, services, directives and other ng components.
