Angular 2 Jasmine Can't bind to 'routerLin

I'm creating a unit test for my Navbar Component and I'm getting an error:

Can't bind to 'routerLink' since it isn't a known property of 'a'

Navbar Component TS

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { Router } from '@angular/router';
import { NavActiveService } from '../../../services/navactive.service';
import { GlobalEventsManager } from '../../../services/GlobalEventsManager';

@Component({
  moduleId: module.id,
  selector: 'my-navbar',
  templateUrl: 'navbar.component.html',
  styleUrls:['navbar.component.css'],
  providers: [NavActiveService]
})
export class NavComponent {
  showNavBar: boolean = true;

  constructor(private router: Router,
              private navactiveservice:NavActiveService,
              private globalEventsManager: GlobalEventsManager){

    this.globalEventsManager.showNavBar.subscribe((mode:boolean)=>{
      this.showNavBar = mode;
    });

  }

}

Navbar Component Spec

import { ComponentFixture, TestBed, async } from '@angular/core/testing';    
import { NavComponent } from './navbar.component';
import { DebugElement }    from '@angular/core';
import { By }              from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { Router } from '@angular/router';

export function main() {
    describe('Navbar component', () => {

        let de: DebugElement;
        let comp: NavComponent;
        let fixture: ComponentFixture<NavComponent>;
        let router: Router;

        // preparing module for testing
        beforeEach(async(() => {
            TestBed.configureTestingModule({
                declarations: [NavComponent],
            }).compileComponents().then(() => {

                fixture = TestBed.createComponent(NavComponent);
                comp = fixture.componentInstance;
                de = fixture.debugElement.query(By.css('p'));

            });
        }));


        it('should create component', () => expect(comp).toBeDefined());


/*        it('should have expected <p> text', () => {
            fixture.detectChanges();
            const h1 = de.nativeElement;
            expect(h1.innerText).toMatch(" ");
        });*/


    });
}

I realize that I need to add router as a spy, but if I add it as a SpyObj and declare it as a provider I get the same error.

Is there a better way for me to add fix this error?

EDIT: Working Unit Test

Built this unit test based on the answer:

export function main() {
    let comp: NavComponent;
    let fixture: ComponentFixture<NavComponent>;
    let mockRouter:any;
    class MockRouter {
        //noinspection TypeScriptUnresolvedFunction
        navigate = jasmine.createSpy('navigate');
    }

        beforeEach( async(() => {
            mockRouter = new MockRouter();
            TestBed.configureTestingModule({
                imports: [ SharedModule ]
            })

            // Get rid of app's Router configuration otherwise many failures.
            // Doing so removes Router declarations; add the Router stubs
                .overrideModule(SharedModule, {
                    remove: {
                        imports: [ RouterModule ],

回答1:

The ng2 Testing docs address this by using RouterLinkStubDirective and RouterOutletStubComponent so that routerLink is a known property of < a>. Basically it says that using RouterOutletStubComponent is a safe way to test routerLinks without all the complications and errors of using the real RouterOutlet. Your project needs to know it exists so it doesn't throw errors but it doesn't need to actually do anything in this case. The RouterLinkStubDirective enables you to click on < a> links with routerLink directive and get just enough information to test that it is being clicked (navigatedTo) and going to the correct route (linkParams). Any more functionality than that and you really aren't testing your component in isolation any more.

Take a look at their demo in app/app.component.spec.ts. Grab the testing/router-stubs.ts and add to your project. Then you will inject the 2 stubbed items into your TestBed declarations.

回答2:

Just add the line :

imports: [RouterTestingModule],

in TestBed.configureTestingModule of your components spec.ts file and

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

Like:

TestBed.configureTestingModule({
  imports: [RouterTestingModule],
  declarations: [ ComponentHeaderComponent ]
})
