Transloco

Is this a regression?

Yes

Current behavior

A simple component like this, fails the unit tests when trying to access the content of the template with V6. It works fine with 5.0.7

Template:

<ng-container *transloco="let t; read: 'scopeName'">
<button (click)=onClick()>Test</button>
</ng-container>

Component:

@Component({
  standalone: true,
  selector: 'app-transloco',
  templateUrl: './transloco.component.html',
  imports: [CommonModule, TranslocoModule],
  changeDetection: ChangeDetectionStrategy.OnPush,
})
export class TranslocoComponent {
  onClick() {
    console.log('Hello World')
  }
}

Test:

describe('TranslocoComponent', () => {
  let component: TranslocoComponent;
  let fixture: ComponentFixture<TranslocoComponent>;

  beforeEach(async () => {
    await TestBed.configureTestingModule({
      imports: [TranslocoComponent, getTranslocoModule()],
    })
      .overrideComponent(TranslocoComponent, {
        set: {
          imports: [CommonModule, TranslocoModule],
          schemas: [CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA],
        },
      })
      .compileComponents();
  });

  beforeEach(() => {
    fixture = TestBed.createComponent(FeedbackErrorComponent);
    component = fixture.componentInstance;
  });

  it('should click button', () => {
    const emitStub = jest.spyOn(console, 'log');
    fixture.detectChanges();

    const button = fixture.debugElement.query(By.css("button"));
    button.triggerEventHandler('click', null);

    expect(emitStub).toHaveBeenCalled();
  });
 
});

The test fails with cannot read property 'triggerEventhandler' of undefined, checking the content of the whole debug element it is apparent that the structural directive of is not resolved and the template blank.

With 5.0.7 this works as expected

Expected behavior

Component unit tests should be working with standalone components like it was in 5.0.7

Please provide a link to a minimal reproduction of the bug, if you won't provide a link the issue won't be handled.

I have a similar issue where my structural directive is not being resolved. I tried reproducing the issue using a stackblitz but this time the structural directive was resolved however the text wasn't translated:
