I have this code

it('should call checkConnectionToRoom when controller loads', function(done) {
    $scope.checkConnectionToRoom = function() {};

    spyOn($scope, 'checkConnectionToRoom').and.callThrough();

    roomController = $controller('RoomController', {$scope: $scope});

    expect($scope.checkConnectionToRoom).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1);

    done();
  });

$scope.checkConnectionToRoom gets assigned when the controller loads. I'm trying to spy on it, so I am creating an empty function first. When the test runs I get: Expected a spy, but got Function.

How can I check $scope.checkConnectionToRoom gets called?

Is that AngularJS with $scope? If it is may need re-tagging. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12053799/expected-a-spy-but-got-function – JGFMK Jul 31 '17 at 17:22
Thanks - retagged. I saw that answer, unfortunately none of the answers help in this case. – Si-N Jul 31 '17 at 19:32
You have to show us your controller function. – Seth Flowers Aug 01 '17 at 14:11
