Angular test how should import localize and translate pipes into the test bed

I've just started to "learn" testing in angular, and my task is first just to successfully run ng test on a existing project.

Almost all of the default generated component tests has errors ("it should create"), since it has dependecies, like translate etc. I've just figured out that, I have to import some dependencies into the TestBed.configureTestingModule section, but for the translate and localize pipes which are coming from @gilsdav/ngx-translate-router and @ngx-translate/core is not working I got a "The pipe 'localize' could not be found in the...". If I put imports: [TranslateModule.forRoot()], into the configureTestingModule it feels like it is working, but for the localize it is not (tried to put the localizeroutermodule in it)

My question is, how should I import these into the components test if I want to successfully load the ng test without errors firstly for the "should create" "it".

Angular 13.3, jasmine-core 3.10.0, karma 6.3.0"

Node 16.15.1

Solution

  • Looks like import like this:

    imports: [RouterTestingModule, TranslateModule.forRoot(), LocalizeRouterModule.forRoot([])],

    fixed it.
