Discussion on: How to Speed Up Angular Tests

[John Au-Yeung]

I'm not aware of that. Too late for existing apps probably.

But looks useful for new apps.

I already refactored the TestBed to its own function so it can be imported and run anywhere, that's how I solved it.

Thanks. Of course, there's also the option to use shallow component tests, where we include no or only some view child components in our tests:
angular.io/guide/testing#nested-co...

But we still have to put dependencies in declarations right?

[Lars Gyrup Brink Nielsen]

Not with shallow components tests using NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA.

[John Au-Yeung]

That's great. It's annoying to have to put everything in the TestBed module.

Anything in Angular is more complex than the other frameworks.
