Template parse errors: The pipe "translate" could not be found

Karma Jasmine unit testing causing Template parse errors: The pipe “translate” could not be found

Current behavior I’m trying to unit test the simple ng2-translation application. Karma Jasmine unit test spec is not recognizing HTML tags, for example

{{‘PAGE.HELLO’ | translate}}

I have written my piece of spec like this

beforeEach(() => {
    TestBed.configureTestingModule({
        declarations: [ SidenavComponent ], // declare the test component
        providers: [
            TranslateService,

           { provide: TranslateLoader, useFactory: (http: Http) => new TranslateStaticLoader(http, 'public/assets/i18n', '.json'), deps:[Http]},
]
});
});

I’m not sure that I’m providing the JSON files in proper format like above. How to resolve this pipe error? Ocombe- Please provide sample unit tests for the examples you have provided in the git

@ocombe Can you please tell how to fix this issue Pipe translate could not be found in ngx-translate@7.x?

Hi, you just need to import the module into your testbed (like you would for any other module, like HttpModule or RouterModule):

beforeEach(() => {
    TestBed.configureTestingModule({
        imports: [TranslateModule.forRoot({
            provide: TranslateLoader,
            useFactory: (http: Http) => new TranslateStaticLoader(http, 'public/assets/i18n', '.json'),
            deps: [Http]
        })],
        declarations: [SidenavComponent] // declare the test component
    });
});
