I would like to know how to implement unit form tests with karma.
I’ve implemented a test but it always gives the following error: Error: No value accessor for form control with name: 'email'
signup.module.ts
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { CommonModule } from '@angular/common';
import { FormsModule, ReactiveFormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
import { Routes, RouterModule } from '@angular/router';
import { IonicModule } from '@ionic/angular';
import { SignupPage } from './signup.page';
const routes: Routes = [{ path: '', component: SignupPage }];
@NgModule({
imports: [CommonModule, FormsModule, ReactiveFormsModule, IonicModule, RouterModule.forChild(routes)],
declarations: [SignupPage]
})
export class SignupPageModule {}

signup.page.ts
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { AbstractControl, FormControl, FormGroup } from '@angular/forms';
@Component({
selector: 'app-signup',
templateUrl: './signup.page.html',
styleUrls: ['./signup.page.scss'],
})
export class SignupPage implements OnInit {
signupForm: FormGroup;
constructor() { }
ngOnInit() {
this.signupForm = new FormGroup({
email: new FormControl(''),
password: new FormControl(''),
});
}
submitSignupForm() {
if (this.validateForm) {
}
}
get validateForm(): boolean {
if (this.emailControl.value === '') { this.emailControl.setErrors({ required: true }); }
if (this.passwordControl.value === '') { this.passwordControl.setErrors({ required: true }); }
return this.signupForm.valid;
}
get emailControl(): AbstractControl {
return this.signupForm.controls['email'];
}
get passwordControl(): AbstractControl {
return this.signupForm.controls['password'];
}
}
signup.page.spec.ts
import { CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA } from '@angular/core';
import { FormsModule, ReactiveFormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
import { async, ComponentFixture, TestBed } from '@angular/core/testing';
import { SignupPage } from './signup.page';
describe('SignupPage', () => {
let component: SignupPage;
let fixture: ComponentFixture<SignupPage>;
beforeEach(async(() => {
TestBed.configureTestingModule({
declarations: [ SignupPage ],
imports: [
FormsModule,
ReactiveFormsModule
],
schemas: [CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA],
})
.compileComponents();
}));
beforeEach(() => {
fixture = TestBed.createComponent(SignupPage);
component = fixture.componentInstance;
fixture.detectChanges();
});
it('should create', () => {
expect(component).toBeTruthy();
});
});
Full log when I run the ng test
command
