Now, using `ng.probe(element)` in the browser console returns
a DebugElement when in dev mode.
`ComponentFixture#debugElement` also returns a new DebugElement.
Breaking Change:
This is a breaking change for unit tests. The API for the DebugElement
has changed. Now, there is a DebugElement or DebugNode for every node
in the DOM, not only nodes with an ElementRef. `componentViewChildren` is
removed, and `childNodes` is a list of ElementNodes corresponding to every
child in the DOM. `query` no longer takes a scope parameter, since
the entire rendered DOM is included in the `childNodes`.
Before:
```
componentFixture.debugElement.componentViewChildren[0];
```
After
```
// Depending on the DOM structure of your component, the
// index may have changed or the first component child
// may be a sub-child.
componentFixture.debugElement.children[0];
```
Before:
```
debugElement.query(By.css('div'), Scope.all());
```
After:
```
debugElement.query(By.css('div'));
```
Before:
```
componentFixture.debugElement.elementRef;
```
After:
```
componentFixture.elementRef;
```
BEFORE:
The following would throw in the dev mode because `f` would return a new array when called by checkNoChanges.
@Component({
template: `
{{f()}}
`
})
class A {
f() { return [1]; }
}
AFTER:
The checkNoChanges function compares only primitives types for equality, and deeply compares iterables. Other objects cannot cause checkNoChanges to throw. This means that the dev mode would never fail given a legal program, but may allow some illegal programs.
This is needed to prevent memory leaks. The DOM
listeners don’t need to be removed for simple examples,
but a big internal app shows memory leaks because of them.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `Renderer.listen` now has to return a function that
removes the event listener.
Adds tests for public Dart and TS frameworks to make sure that
components with templateUrl can be created by the TestComponentBuilder.
Closes#6359Closes#6601
Resolve all invalid field override errors, workaround current
reflection limitations in Dart Dev Compiler. todo, hello_world and
key_events samples now work with Dart Dev Compiler.
BREAKING CHANGE: remove TemplateRef.elementRef setter
Closes#6441
Widen version dependencies for `package:angular`, `package:code_transformers`,
and `package:observe`.
`package:guinness` uses `package:unittest` while
the newest versions of `package:code_transformers` use `package:test`.
This causes our end-to-end Dart transformer tests (which use testing
code in `package:code_transformers`) to be skipped.
To fix this:
- Move e2e tests to run in a separate file
- Run `gulp test.server.dart` tests serially
Closes#5922Closes#5935
With providers split into bundles, the test injector is now able to
use providers for a given bundle. Suggested provider lists for tests are
available in `angular2/platform/testing/<platform>`.
Change the providers for a test suite using `setBaseTestProviders`. This
should be done once at the start of the test suite, before any test cases
run.
BREAKING CHANGE: Tests are now required to use `setBaseTestProviders`
to set up. Assuming your tests are run on a browser, setup would change
as follows.
Before:
```js
// Somewhere in test setup
import {BrowserDomAdapter} from 'angular2/src/platform/browser/browser_adapter';
BrowserDomAdapter.makeCurrent
```
After:
```js
// Somewhere in the test setup
import {setBaseTestProviders} from 'angular2/testing';
import {
TEST_BROWSER_PLATFORM_PROVIDERS,
TEST_BROWSER_APPLICATION_PROVIDERS
} from 'angular2/platform/testing/browser';
setBaseTestProviders(TEST_BROWSER_PLATFORM_PROVIDERS,
TEST_BROWSER_APPLICATION_PROVIDERS);
```
Closes#5351, Closes#5585Closes#5975
BREAKING CHANGE:
- Platform pipes can only contain types and arrays of types,
but no bindings any more.
- When using transformers, platform pipes need to be specified explicitly
in the pubspec.yaml via the new config option
`platform_pipes`.
- `Compiler.compileInHost` now returns a `HostViewFactoryRef`
- Component view is not yet created when component constructor is called.
-> use `onInit` lifecycle callback to access the view of a component
- `ViewRef#setLocal` has been moved to new type `EmbeddedViewRef`
- `internalView` is gone, use `EmbeddedViewRef.rootNodes` to access
the root nodes of an embedded view
- `renderer.setElementProperty`, `..setElementStyle`, `..setElementAttribute` now
take a native element instead of an ElementRef
- `Renderer` interface now operates on plain native nodes,
instead of `RenderElementRef`s or `RenderViewRef`s
Closes#5993
Previously when comparing which of multiple possible routes to choose in
an ambiguous case, we looked at the specificity of the target of redirect
matches rather than the original match. This meant that if a redirect
used a whilecard, but redirected to a target that was a static path,
we'd cound the static path's specificity instead of the wildcard.
This change stores the specificity of the redirect on the RedirectInstruction.
Closes#5933
This changes the way we calculate specificity. Instead of using a number,
we use a string, so that combining specificity across parent-child instructions
becomes a matter of concatenating them

Before, all test framework wrappers (internal for dart and js/ts,
angular2_test for dart and testing for js/ts) had similar logic to
keep track of current global test injector and test provider list.
This change wraps that logic into one class managed by the test
injector.
Closes#5920
BREAKING CHANGE
Before
Previously Angular would run in dev prod mode by default, and you could enable the dev mode by calling enableDevMode.
After
Now, Angular runs in the dev mode by default, and you can enable the prod mode by calling enableProdMode.
Before #5375, injectAsync would check the return value and fail
if it was not a promise, to help users remember that they need to
return a promise from an async test. #5375 removed that with the
introduction of the testing zone.
This un-deprecates `injectAsync` until we can resolve
https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/5515.
To be clear, this means that `inject` and `injectAsync` are now
identical except that `injectAsync` will fail if the test
does not return a promise, and `inject` will fail if the test
returns any value.
Closes#5721

Closes#5819
BREAKING CHANGE
From the app thread, in both TypeScript and Dart, you bootstrap the app
using `application` instead of `asyncApplication`.
Before:
```TypeScript
platform([WORKER_APP_PLATFORM])
.asyncApplication(setupWebWorker, optionalProviders?)
.then((ref) => ref.bootstrap(RootComponent));
```
Now:
```TypeScript
platform([WORKER_APP_PLATFORM])
.application([WORKER_APP_APPLICATION])
.bootstrap(RootComponent);
```
closes#5857Closes#5862
Since AppRootUrl is removed, the logic for extending and emitting
the root url as part of the setup seems unnecessary.
BREAKING CHANGES:
The setupWebWorker function exported from
angular2/platform/worker_app no longer returns a promise of providers,
but instead synchronously returns providers.

This changes the public api spec to check each public barrel individually
to make sure its API has not changed. The previous API spec has been
preserved but split into respective barrels.
The compiler barrel has been added to the spec, along with all of its
public exports. Previously, angular2/angular2 was only exporting a
handful of symbols from compiler, so there are now many more symbols
being tested in the spec for compiler than previously.

In the browser, calling element.textContent causes child comment
nodes to be ignored, while getting textContent directly on a
comment node will return the comment. This change makes
parse5Adapter consistent with this behavior by adding a 2nd
argument to getText telling if it's being called recursively.
Closes#5805
This is used for setting property binding values as attributes
on elements when running in dev mode. This implementation will
also serialize binding information to template placeholder
comment nodes.
Closes#5227
Assets defined for `templateUrl` and `styleUrls` can now be loaded
in relative to where the component file is placed so long as the
`moduleId` is set within the component annotation.
