angularjs - How do you mock directives to enable unit testing of higher level directive?

In our app we have several layers of nested directives. I'm trying to write some unit tests for the top level directives. I've mocked in stuff that the directive itself needs, but now I'm running into errors from the lower level directives. In my unit tests for the top level directive, I don't want to have to worry about what is going on in the lower level directives. I just want to mock the lower level directive and basically have it do nothing so I can be testing the top level directive in isolation.

I tried overwriting the directive definition by doing something like this:

angular.module("myModule").directive("myLowerLevelDirective", function() {
    return {
        link: function(scope, element, attrs) {
            //do nothing
        }
    }
});

However, this does not overwrite it, it just runs this in addition to the real directive. How can I stop these lower level directives from doing anything in my unit test for the top level directive?

Directives are just factories, so the best way to do this is to mock the factory of the directive in using the module function, typically in the beforeEach block. Assuming you have a directive named do-something used by a directive called do-something-else you'd mock it as such:

beforeEach(module('yourapp/test', function($provide){
  $provide.factory('doSomethingDirective', function(){ return {}; });
}));

// Or using the shorthand sytax
beforeEach(module('yourapp/test', { doSomethingDirective: {} ));

Then the directive will be overridden when the template is compiled in your test

inject(function($compile, $rootScope){
  $compile('<do-something-else></do-something-else>', $rootScope.$new());
});

Note that you need to add the 'Directive' suffix to the name because the compiler does this internally: https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/821ed310a75719765448e8b15e3a56f0389107a5/src/ng/compile.js#L530
