How i can test local variable in Angular 2 with karma + jasmine?

I am trying to write a unit test with jasmine. The issue I am facing is how to test a local variable using jasmine. I was able to test a global variable but not a local variable.

Here is my function:

checkDayIsOpen(): void {
  let isSpecial = false;
     this.items.forEach((item) => {
         if (item.is_open) {
             isSpecial = true;
         }
      });
   if(isSpeciality){
       call another function here...
     }
}

I want to test the value of isSpecial.

You can't test it because it is gone after the call. However, you can test if that other fucntion has been called.

describe("Person toString() Test", function() {
  it("calls the getName() function", function() {
    var testPerson = new Person();
    spyOn(testPerson, "getName");
    testPerson.toString();
    expect(testPerson.getName).toHaveBeenCalled();
  });
});
