Problems mocking MockConnection error response

[denchdev]

I'm testing http service in Angular2. I want to test the server, the server responds 'Unauthorized Error'. In test I used this code:

this.backend.connections.subscribe(
            (connection: MockConnection) => {
                console.log("Connection");
                connection.mockError(<any>new Response(new ResponseOptions({status: 401, body: 'error'})));
            }
        );

In test I used handleError from angular.io..

It is the wrong decision. Tell me how to test this situation.

Hi,

So the problem is that MockConnection method to mock error response accepts an instance of Error which does not allow to pass response object to error handler. Cast to any allows to bypass type checks so we can finally pass the response, but to me it looks like a dirty hack.

Is this a bug in MockConnection API or do we do something wrong?

Thank you,
Roman
