Angularjs injecting $resource into factory for Testing with jasmine - unit-testing

Question

I am writing my unit tests to test factory developed as below
angular.module("MyApp.Factory",[]).factory("factory",function($resource, baseUrl) {
return {
someService: function () {
return $resource(baseUrl + "/someUri");
}
};
});
jasmine spec for the same
describe("My App Factory Tests", function () {
var $factory;
beforeEach(function () {
module("MyApp.Factory");
inject(function (factory) {
$factory = factory;
});
});
it("Factory must be defined", function () {
expect($factory).toBeDefined();
});
});
but i end up with the below error from the jasmine html test page
Error: Unknown provider: $resourceProvider <- $resource <- eligibilityService
Please suggest the right way to test the factory

Answer 1

ngResource is defined in the separate module. Please check the documentation http://docs.angularjs.org/api/ngResource
In other words you have to include <script src="angular-resource.js"> and add ngResource dependency to MyApp.Factory module - angular.module("MyApp.Factory", ["ngResource"]).
ps. in the specs you could surround service name with underscores so that we can locally assign a local variable of the same name as the service. For example:
var factory;
beforeEach(function () {
module("MyApp.Factory");
inject(function (_factory_) {
factory = _factory_;
});
});
According to angularjs coding standards $ should not be used for naming custom directives.
