    Hi, I am trying to mock WjFlexGrid for unit testing but when I try:-

    gridDebugElement = appComDebugElement.query(By.directive(WjFlexGrid));

    It always returns null. Looking for help on this.

    Hi Manish,

    I have tried your example in my project but this line:-

        let gridDebugElement = appComDebugElement.query(By.directive(WjFlexGrid));
    

    always return null for me. Looking forward to any help.

    Hi,

    Please make sure you have write the code in the following order:

    import { TestBed,ComponentFixture,async } from '@angular/core/testing';
    import { By } from '@angular/platform-browser';
    import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
    import { WjGridModule , WjFlexGrid } from '@grapecity/wijmo.angular2.grid';
    import {DebugElement} from "@angular/core";
    describe('AppComponent', () => {
      let appComponent: ComponentFixture<AppComponent>;
      let appComDebugElement: DebugElement;
      let myComponent: AppComponent;
      let myNativeElement: Element;
      let gridDebugElement: DebugElement;
      let grid: WjFlexGrid;
      let gridNativeElement: HTMLElement;
    
      beforeEach(async () => {
        await TestBed.configureTestingModule({
          declarations: [
            AppComponent
          ],
          imports:[
            WjGridModule
          ]
        }).compileComponents();
    
        appComponent = TestBed.createComponent(AppComponent);
        appComDebugElement = appComponent.debugElement;
        myComponent = appComDebugElement.componentInstance;
        myNativeElement = appComDebugElement.nativeElement as Element;
        gridDebugElement = appComDebugElement.query(By.directive(WjFlexGrid));
        gridNativeElement = gridDebugElement.nativeElement;
        grid = gridDebugElement.componentInstance;
        gridNativeElement = gridDebugElement.nativeElement;
        appComponent.detectChanges();
      });
    

    Also along with the following code order,if the FlexGrid is visible on page load in project execution.

    Please modify the sample for showing your Component in the way it is showing in your application.
