Purpose of this sample app is to answer to a StackOverflow question about how to test apps using Angular's RouterLinkActive directive in latest version of Angular (right now v17.3)

See complete explanation in the StackOverflow's answer

Main meat is in sidebar component test

You can find an alternative solution that couples to the RouterLink directive APIs in a separate branch

This project was generated with Angular CLI version 17.3.7.

Specific command for creation:

pnpm dlx @angular/cli@17.3.x new --package-manager=pnpm \
  --inline-style --inline-template \
  --no-ssr --style css routerlinkactive-testing

Development server

Run ng serve for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The application will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.

Code scaffolding

Run ng generate component component-name to generate a new component. You can also use ng generate directive|pipe|service|class|guard|interface|enum|module.

Build

Run ng build to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory.

Running unit tests

Run ng test to execute the unit tests via Karma.

Running end-to-end tests

Run ng e2e to execute the end-to-end tests via a platform of your choice. To use this command, you need to first add a package that implements end-to-end testing capabilities.
