InjectorService invoke method doesn't call $onInit

[avivVonage]

If I write a test like this:

test('testName', inject([MyService, Done], async(myService: MyService, done: Done) => {
  ...
}

The $onInit method of MyService is called.

But if I want to mock the services that MyService uses I want to write it like this:

test('testName', inject([InjectorService, Done], async(injectorService: InjectorService, done: Done) => {
  ...
  const locals = new Map();
  locals.set(OtherService, myMock);
  const myService = injectorService.invoke<MyService>(MyService, locals);
  ...
}

Unfortunately, now the $onInit method of MyService is not called.

I can call this method by myself, but why isn't it done inside the invoke method?

Hello @avivVonage
Yes isn't normal. I already works on the fix. After the new release, your unit test should be written like that:

before(TestContext.create)
after(TestContext.reset)
test('testName', async () => {
  const myService = await TestContext.invoke<MyService>(MyService, [
      provide: OtherService, use: myMock
  ]);
  ...
}

async / await is only required if the $onInit method return a promise. Otherwise, isn't required.

I'll tell you when the fix is released
See you,
Romain
