Timeout - Async callback was not invoked within timeout specified by jasmine.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_INTERVAL.

I run npm run test in terminal, but I encountered error below, I don’t know what does the error mean, how could I do?

In my case, this was caused by improper use of “fixture.detectChanges()” It seems this method is a event listener (async) which will only respond a callback when changes are detected. If no changes are detected it will not invoke the callback, resulting in a timeout error. Hope this helps 😃

Try using lesser timeout instead. I got this error while using timeout = 5000. I replaced it with 2000 and it worked for me!
