Lars, in your tests you just check whether the navigation went through or was denied, right ?

expect(canNavigate).toBeFalse();
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

So, was triggering change detection still necessary ?

We also want to make sure that changes are stable as they would be in an app.
