Isolated tests

It is often useful to test complex components without rendering them. To see how it can be done, let's write a test for the following component:

      this.change.next(createFilters(value));
    });
  }
}

Following is the code for filters.component.html:

<div [formGroup]="filters">
  <md-input-container>
