ngMock

The ngMock module provides support to inject and mock Angular services into unit tests. In addition, ngMock also extends various core ng services such that they can be inspected and controlled in a synchronous manner within test code.

Installation

First include angular-mocks.js in your HTML:

    <script src="angular.js">
    <script src="angular-mocks.js">

You can download this file from the following places:

where X.Y.Z is the AngularJS version you are running.

Then load the module in your application by adding it as a dependent module:

  angular.module('app', ['ngMock']);

With that you're ready to get started!
