I am new to writing test specs using jasmine. I have a condition in ngOnInit() something like, router.url.includes(some string). The default spec test case which checks component to be truthy is getting failed saying TypeError: Cannot find includes of undefined. Is there any way to spy or mock includes?

You can use RouterTestingModule to mock the angular router.

Just import the angular router as below.

import { RouterTestingModule } from '@angular/router/testing';
import { ActivatedRoute, Router } from '@angular/router';

And add it to the imports array of NgModule


TestBed.configureTestingModule({
    declarations: [
        someComponent
    ],
    imports: [
        RouterTestingModule.withRoutes([]),
    ],
    providers: [someProvider],
}).compileComponents

Then you can inject the Router as follows and use it for testing

it('should Navigate', () => {
    const actiavtedRoute = TestBed.inject(ActivatedRoute);
    const router = TestBed.inject(Router);
})
