unit testing: Does $http sort the params object?

mardi 14 avril 2015

I writing some unit tests for my angularjs app. For the tests I'm mocking the $http request with the internal $httpBackend.

During the test I use the $httpBackend.expectGET, because I want the exact behavior of my app request.

For example I have an Params-Object:


parameters = {
        name : 'Monkey',
        crazy : false,
        desc : 'Nobody',
      };

The Http-Get request in my app is:


return $http.get(this.uri + '/' + id, {params : parameters});

At my unit-test I expect this:


$httpBackend.expectGET(instance.uri + '/' + returnValues.id + '?' + query).respond(200, object);

"query" is only the elements of the object concat with '=' and '&'. So I expect the URL:


 http://ift.tt/1yq5Z5H

But I get this one:


http://ift.tt/1apUGyS

Does $http make a sort on basis of the keys in the object for the "params"?
