How does Angular's router load a lazily-loaded module?
- By deferring loading
- By loading it immediately
- By preloading all modules
- By skipping the module
Angular's router loads a lazily-loaded module by deferring loading until it's needed, reducing the initial bundle size.
What is the main difference between Observables and Promises in Angular?
- Observables are synchronous
- Observables can emit multiple values
- Promises are used for HTTP requests
- Promises can be canceled
The main difference is that Observables can emit multiple values, whereas Promises can emit a single value and are not cancelable. Observables are more powerful for handling streams of data.
What is the purpose of the fixture in Angular testing?
- To create a component
- To define routing
- To set up a testing module
- To simulate user interactions
The fixture in Angular testing is used to simulate user interactions and provides access to the component's DOM for testing.
You need to implement a feature where clicking on a user's name in a list navigates to a detailed user profile page. The user ID needs to be passed in the URL. How would you implement this using Angular's router?
- Create a custom directive to handle the navigation and pass the user ID.
- Define a route with a parameter like /user/:userId and access the userId using ActivatedRoute.
- Store the user ID in a global service and retrieve it when navigating to the user profile page.
- Use a query parameter to pass the user ID in the URL and retrieve it using the QueryParams.
To navigate to a detailed user profile page with the user ID in the URL, you should define a route with a parameter like /user/:userId and access the userId using ActivatedRoute.
How do you create a custom pipe in Angular?

Imagine you have a directive that applies accessibility enhancements to elements. How would you test that the directive is correctly applying the necessary ARIA roles and attributes?
- Manually inspect HTML
- Use a screen reader
- Use end-to-end tests
- Use linters
To test the accessibility directive, you should manually inspect the generated HTML to ensure that it correctly applies the necessary ARIA roles and attributes. End-to-end tests may also help validate this behavior.
