Summary

This chapter covered the basics of TDD and its role in Angular. We explained the benefits of TDD and how it can help developers write high-quality code. Then, we discussed how to set up the development environment for Angular and created a new Angular project using the Angular programming interface. We also explored the various files related to writing tests in Angular, including *.spec.ts, karma.conf.js,tsconfig.spec.json, and src/test.ts. We provided detailed explanations of each file and their role in testing Angular applications. By understanding these files and their purpose, developers can write and run tests for their Angular applications more effectively and ensure that their code performs as expected.

In the next chapter, we’ll learn about the process of writing and executing unit tests using Jasmine while covering topics such as test suites, test specifications, and matchers.
