Testing angular factories with jasmine

I have a problem with jasmine and angular. I have to test my factories. I have made simplidfied project on plunker. Here is demo app: http://plnkr.co/edit/Agq4xz9NmYeEDWoJguxt Here is demo test: http://plnkr.co/edit/ALVKdXO00IEDaKIjMY6u The first problem is how to make spec runner working without any specification to test.

When you run demo test plunker you will see error:

TypeError: myDataRaw is undefined in http: //run.plnkr.co/Kqz4tGMsdrxoFNKO/app.js (line 39)

Somebody can help?

Thanks

The problem is

In your production code

var dataLoadedPromise = $http.get('myData.xml', {transformResponse: transformResponse});

you expect the return from the server is XML data not json, so when you mock the HTTP, you should use XML instead of Json.

Here is the working code:

describe("controller: MyController", function () {

    beforeEach(function () {
        module("myApp");
    });

    var dataFactory;

    beforeEach(inject(function ($injector, $controller, $rootScope, $location, $httpBackend) {
        this.$location = $location;
        this.$httpBackend = $httpBackend;
        this.scope = $rootScope.$new();
        dataFactory = $injector.get('dataFactory');

        this.$httpBackend.expectGET('myData.xml').respond(
            "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\" ?><myData><persons><person><firstName>Pera</firstName><lastName>Peric</lastName><email>[email protected]</email><score>22</score></person></persons></myData>");

        $controller('MyController', {
            $scope: this.scope,
            $location: $location,
            myData: dataFactory
        });
    }));

    afterEach(function () {
        this.$httpBackend.verifyNoOutstandingRequest();
        this.$httpBackend.verifyNoOutstandingExpectation();
    });

    describe("successfully parsed persons", function () {
        it("should have 2 persons", function () {

            dataFactory.getData();
            this.$httpBackend.flush();
        });
    });
});

Updated Demo
