// Controller Unit Tests | |
describe('My Controller', function() { | |
var ctrl, scope; | |
beforeEach(module('module.containing.controller')); | |
// include previous module containing mocked service which will override actual service, because it's declared later | |
beforeEach(module('mock.users')); | |
beforeEach(inject(function($controller, $rootScope, _UserService_) { // inject mocked service | |
scope = $rootScope.$new(); | |
ctrl = $controller('MyController', { | |
$scope: scope, | |
UserService: _UserService_ | |
}); | |
})); | |
// unit tests go here | |
