Angularjs Jasmine unit testing a controller : $scope and ionicPopupProvider is undefined - angularjs

Question

I'm trying to test my simple controller but seems like nothing is working.
the controller:
userCtrlMod.controller('resetCtrl',
['$scope', '$ionicPopup', '$timeout','resetPwd',
function($scope, $ionicPopup, $timeout, resetPwd){
$scope.reset = function(){
$scope.resetPopUp = $ionicPopup.show({
templateUrl:'././templates/popup/reset.html',
scope: $scope
});
}}]);
my test file :
describe("resetCtrl", function () {
var $myScope, $myController, timeout;
beforeEach(module('dbooks.userCtrl'));
beforeEach(inject(function(
_$controller_,
_$rootScope_,
_$timeout_,
$ionicPopup
){
$myController = _$controller_;
$myScope = _$rootScope_;
$myController = $controller('resetCtrl' , {
$scope: $myScope,
$resetPopUp : $ionicPopup
});
}));
it("should have a $scope variable", function() {
//console.log($myScope);
expect($myScope).toBeDefined();
});});
I googled it but i could'nt find any solution, please someone tell me what I'm doing wrong.
the errors :
Uncaught Error: [$injector:unpr] Unknown provider: $ionicPopupProvider <- $ionicPopup
Uncaught Expected undefined to be defined.
at Object.

You don't provide all required dependencies when creating controller in test. You have to provide all dependencies required by the controller:
describe("resetCtrl", function () {
var $myScope, $myController, timeout;
beforeEach(module('dbooks.userCtrl'));
beforeEach(inject(function(
_$controller_,
_$rootScope_,
_$timeout_,
$ionicPopup
){
$myController = _$controller_;
$myScope = _$rootScope_;
var resetPwd = {
someResetmethod: jasmine.createSpy('rese')
};
$myController = $controller('resetCtrl' , {
$scope: $myScope,
$ionicPopup: $ionicPopup,
$timeout: _$timeout_,
resetPwd: resetPwd
});
}));
it("should have a $scope variable", function() {
//console.log($myScope);
expect($myScope).toBeDefined();
});
}
Please note that you can inject mocked objects as dependencies - in above code instead of original resetPwd mocked object with spy as method is injected. The important thing is that you have to provide all dependencies used by your controller and if you inject mocked objects those object of course have to include required methods and properties.

Please try this.
$myScope =__$rootScope_.$new();
