Testing factory toBeDefined error - angularjs

Question

Just started jasmine karma.
the test is failing due to following errors:
PhantomJS 2.1.1 (Mac OS X 0.0.0) dataservice spec should have dataservice be defined FAILED
Error: Timeout - Async callback was not invoked within timeout specified by jasmine.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_INTERVAL.
Error: [$injector:unpr] Unknown provider: dataserviceProvider <- dataservice
i have provided all dependencies namely $http and $q still getting unknown provider error.
the factory has been described inside app.core module, which i have
included into the karma conf file
What am i missing.
the factory works fine inthe project
unit testing the following http factory
(function() {
'use strict';
angular
.module('app.core', [])
.factory('dataservice', dataservice);
dataservice.$inject = ['$http', '$q'];
function dataservice($http, $q) {
return {
makeRequest: makeRequest,
};
function makeRequest(params) {
var defer = $q.defer();
if (params.method == "GET") {
$http({
method: params.method,
url: params.url,
headers: params.headers
})
.then(function(response) {
defer.resolve(response);
},
function(response) {
defer.reject(response);
})
}
if (params.method == "POST") {
$http({
method: params.method,
url: params.url,
data: params.parameters,
headers: params.headers
})
.then(function(response) {
console.log(response);
defer.resolve(response);
},
function(response) {
console.log("error");
defer.reject(response);
})
}
return defer.promise;
})();
test spec:
(function(){
'use strict'
describe('dataservice spec',function(){
var dataservice;
beforeEach(function($injector){
angular.module('app.core');
//dataservice=$injector.get('dataservice')
});
beforeEach(inject(function (_dataservice_,_$http_,_$q_) {
dataservice = _dataservice_;
$http=_$http_;
$q=_$q_;
}));
// beforeEach(inject(function() {
// var $injector = angular.injector(['app.core']);
// dataservice = $injector.get('dataservice');
// }));
it('should have dataservice be defined', function () {
expect(dataservice).toBeDefined();
});
})
})();

You'll need to update your scripts as follows:
(function () {
'use strict';
angular
.module('app.core', [])
.factory('dataservice', dataservice);
dataservice.$inject = ['$http', '$q'];
function dataservice($http, $q) {
return {
makeRequest: makeRequest
};
function makeRequest(params) {
var defer = $q.defer();
if (params.method == "GET") {
$http({
method: params.method,
url: params.url,
headers: params.headers
})
.then(function (response) {
defer.resolve(response);
},
function (response) {
defer.reject(response);
})
}
if (params.method == "POST") {
$http({
method: params.method,
url: params.url,
data: params.parameters,
headers: params.headers
})
.then(function (response) {
console.log(response);
defer.resolve(response);
},
function (response) {
console.log("error");
defer.reject(response);
})
}
return defer.promise;
}
}
})();
The Unit test:
(function () {
'use strict'
describe('dataservice spec', function () {
var dataservice,
$http,
$q;
beforeEach(module('app.core'));
beforeEach(inject(function (_dataservice_, _$http_, _$q_) {
dataservice = _dataservice_;
$http = _$http_;
$q = _$q_;
}));
it('should have dataservice be defined', function () {
expect(dataservice).toBeDefined();
});
})
})();
Just make sure you're loading your module properly: beforeEach(module('app.core'));
