angular testing

angular-test-excerpt.js

    // from https://code.angularjs.org/1.2.19/docs/guide/unit-testing
    // under 'simple html element directive'
    
    // Whats the beef?
    // One of angular's flagship features, dependency injection
    // forces us to write clumsy **beforeEach clauses** leaks the instances one level up in scope
    // And the argumentation for the use of this weird DI is TESTING????
    // writing large test suites leaking variables one step up 
    // usually leads to making the impossible to run next to each other
    //wtf
    var $compile;
    var $rootScope;

    // Load the myApp module, which contains the directive
    beforeEach(module('myApp'));
    
    // Store references to $rootScope and $compile
    // so they are available to all tests in this describe block
    beforeEach(inject(function(_$compile_, _$rootScope_){
      // The injector unwraps the underscores (_) from around the parameter names when matching
      $compile = _$compile_;     	
      $rootScope = _$rootScope_;
    }));
