How to test components with ViewEncapsulation.ShadowDom?

[2YY]

Hi, I'm testing component that used as WebComponent (Angular Element).

And I want to enable shadow DOM encapsulation.

@Component({
  // ...
  encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.ShadowDom // <- This!
})

But if shadow DOM encapsulation is enabled, Angular Testing Library seems failed find elements in shadow DOM.

Is there anything I can solve this problem?

Thanks.

Hi, thanks for raising this issue.
Unfortunately, we don't support shadow DOM for now.
We're tracking this in DOM Testing Library, if it lands there, it should also be possible to use it with Angular Testing Library.

Hey @2YY, I had the same problem and I solved using this library (shadow-dom-testing-library), it works just fine for me.
I hope soon we are getting support from Angular Testing Library to get elements in a Shadow DOM.

Is there any news on this topic? The tracked issue in DOM testing library has not been updated since 2022.
