Overview of this book

Do you want to learn how to build robust, reliable, and impressive Angular applications? If yes, then Angular test-driven development is for you! Mastering Angular Test-Driven Development is a comprehensive guide that provides you with essential resources to enhance your skills and deliver high-quality Angular applications. With a practical approach and real-world examples, the book extensively covers TDD concepts, techniques, and tools, going beyond unit testing to explore testing Angular pipes, forms, and reactive programming. In this book, you’ll learn how to validate and manipulate data using pipes, test Angular forms for input validation and user interactions, and handle asynchronous operations with reactive programming. Additionally, you’ll discover end-to-end testing using Protractor, Cypress, and Playwright frameworks, gaining valuable insights into writing robust tests for web applications, navigation, element interaction, and behavior validation. You’ll also understand how to integrate TDD with CI/CD, learning best practices for automating tests, deploying Angular applications, and achieving faster feedback loops. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to successfully implement TDD in your Angular projects with the help of practical examples, best practices, and clear explanations.

Summary

In this chapter, we have learned about E2E testing, an essential software development practice that ensures an application works perfectly from start to finish. E2E testing involves all integrated systems, both internal and external, to identify dependencies and verify the smooth flow of information.

We also learned about the most common E2E testing tools, Protractor, Cypress, and Playwright. We explored the strengths of each tool:

  • Protractor: Designed for Angular applications, offering Angular-specific APIs for interacting with elements and handling asynchronous operations
  • Cypress: A user-friendly tool that supports asynchronous/await syntax and concurrent test execution (albeit with limitations in the free version)
  • Playwright: Provides a modern async/await approach to test scripting, encourages simultaneous test execution for faster execution, and boasts a simple API for efficient test development

Understanding the advantages and limitations of these...
