<div class="description"><div class="ngmocke2e-httpbackend-page"><p>Fake HTTP backend implementation suitable for end-to-end testing or backend-less development of
applications that use the <a href="api/ng.$http"><code>$http service</code></a>.</p>
<p><em>Note</em>: For fake http backend implementation suitable for unit testing please see
<a href="api/ngMock.$httpBackend">unit-testing $httpBackend mock</a>.</p>
<p>This implementation can be used to respond with static or dynamic responses via the <code>when</code> api
and its shortcuts (<code>whenGET</code>, <code>whenPOST</code>, etc) and optionally pass through requests to the
real $httpBackend for specific requests (e.g. to interact with certain remote apis or to fetch
templates from a webserver).</p>
<p>As opposed to unit-testing, in an end-to-end testing scenario or in scenario when an application
is being developed with the real backend api replaced with a mock, it is often desirable for
certain category of requests to bypass the mock and issue a real http request (e.g. to fetch
templates or static files from the webserver). To configure the backend with this behavior
use the <code>passThrough</code> request handler of <code>when</code> instead of <code>respond</code>.</p>
<p>Additionally, we don&#39;t want to manually have to flush mocked out requests like we do during unit
testing. For this reason the e2e $httpBackend automatically flushes mocked out requests
automatically, closely simulating the behavior of the XMLHttpRequest object.</p>
<p>To setup the application to run with this http backend, you have to create a module that depends
on the <code>ngMockE2E</code> and your application modules and defines the fake backend:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint linenums">
myAppDev = angular.module('myAppDev', ['myApp', 'ngMockE2E']);
myAppDev.run(function($httpBackend) {
phones = [{name: 'phone1'}, {name: 'phone2'}];
// returns the current list of phones
$httpBackend.whenGET('/phones').respond(phones);
// adds a new phone to the phones array
$httpBackend.whenPOST('/phones').respond(function(method, url, data) {
phones.push(angular.fromJson(data));
});
$httpBackend.whenGET(/^\/templates\//).passThrough();
//...
});
</pre>
<p>Afterwards, bootstrap your app with this new module.</p>
