fix(core): Angular should not ignore changes that happen outside the …
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
…zone

When Angular receives a clear indication that change detection should
run again, this should not be ignored, regardless of what Zone it
happened in. This change updates the default change detection scheduling
approach of Zone-based applications to ensure a change detection will
run when these events happen outside the Angular zone (which includes,
for example, updating a signal that's read in a template, setting an
input of a `ComponentRef`, attaching a view marked for check, calling
`ChangeDetectorRef.markForCheck`, etc.).

This does not apply to applications using `NoopNgZone` or those which
have a custom `NgZone` implementation without ZoneJS.

The impact of this change will most often be seen in existing unit tests. Tests
execute outside the Angular Zone and this can mean that state in the
test is not fully recognized by Angular. Now that Angular will ensure
change detection _does_ run, even when the state update originates from
outside the zone, tests may observe additional rounds of change
detection compared to the previous behavior. Often, this should be seen
as more correct and the test should be updated, but in cases where it is
too much effort to debug, the test can revert to the old behavior by adding
`provideZoneChangeDetection({schedulingMode: NgZoneSchedulingMode.NgZoneOnly})`
to the `TestBed` providers.

BREAKING CHANGE:

Angular will ensure change detection runs, even when the state update originates from
outside the zone, tests may observe additional rounds of change
detection compared to the previous behavior.

This change will be more likely to impact existing unit tests.
This should usually be seen as more correct and the test should be updated,
but in cases where it is too much effort to debug, the test can revert to the old behavior by adding
`provideZoneChangeDetection({schedulingMode: NgZoneSchedulingMode.NgZoneOnly})`
to the `TestBed` providers.

Similarly, applications which may want to update state outside the zone
and _not_ trigger change detection can add
`provideZoneChangeDetection({schedulingMode: NgZoneSchedulingMode.NgZoneOnly})`
to the providers in `bootstrapApplication` or add
`schedulingMode: NgZoneSchedulingMode.NgZoneOnly` to the
`BootstrapOptions` of `bootstrapModule`.
