I have started learning how to test angular projects. So far basic unit testing is working fine for me but for the dependency testing especially when API services are injected into the component I am facing issue for providing HttpClient. I have tried different solutions but none is working for me.
Service
// Present in HttpClientService file
getDisposition() {
return this.http.get<{ message: string, data: { dispositionList: Disposition[] } }>(`${this.URL}/disposition/get`);
}
// Present in FileProcessService file
deleteMedia(media: string) {
return this.http.delete<{ message: string }>(`${this.URL}/certificate/delete?certificate=${media}`);
}

The error that am getting for those 2 tests (I’m providing the error of 1 test case, the same is coming for the 2nd one also):

Anyone, please help what’s the exact error happening with my test cases? Stuck here for almost 2 days.
