Overview of this book

<p>AngularJS stepped up to offer a comprehensive solution to frontend development with minimal dependencies and a clear set of objectives.</p> <p>This book follows the AngularJS philosophy and offers guidance on how to approach testing components that make up the AngularJS framework. At the start of the book, you will explore how to configure your system to run unit and end-to-end tests. Following this, you'll become familiar with fundamental principles on testing AngularJS with Jasmine. Then, you'll understand how spies can enable you to test your code with greater coverage and simplicity throughout your application. The final result is an AngularJS application that is tested with integrity, helping facilitate a cleaner and more reliable codebase.</p>
