I'm currently exploring the functionality of angular.mock.module (sometimes referred to as window.module) and how it operates. I've grasped that its primary purpose is to load a module in tests, which is straightforward:
beforeEach(angular.mock.module("mymodule"));
This code will load the mymodule before each it block in my jasmine specs.
Another way to utilize module is for mocking services/factories/values within a specific module. If we consider that mymodule has a value named foo with a value of 42, I can do the following in my specs:
beforeEach(angular.mock.module("mymodule")); // this loads the module
// this line mocks the value of foo
beforeEach(module(function($provide) {
$provide.value("foo", 43);
});
Now, my question is this: How does module determine which module to target when using the $provide service for mocking? In practice, could I have done the following in my test:
beforeEach(angular.mock.module("mymodule"));
beforeEach(angular.mock.module("anothermodule"));
beforeEach(module(function($provide) {
$provide.value("foo", 43);
});
Would this final snippet assign the value 43 to foo in mymodule or anothermodule?
