Right now it's hard to find samples of tests against Angular 2 observable Http code for developers in the current beta. Some of the things you have to watch out for are non-obvious. I expect this will improve vastly over time, but for now hopefully you'll get some working code samples from me to get you going. This post will show you how it’s done.

Review of major changes coming to Angular with the Angular2 release, which is a bottom-up re-write and has significant differences from and advantages over Angular 1.
What Angular1 brought, Angular2 takes away – for a good reason. No more Promises in ng2! See how observables make Angular2 a reactive, functional platform. We’ll roll up our sleeves and get something practical done with Angular2’s Http service, and we’ll get some data via the new Http service – it's quite a bit different than the Angular 1 $http service semantically, but serves the same purpose, but is also more fully featured.
This fourth post discusses how to wire up your web server, in our case Express, to serve your files. We’ll configure it with Live Reload via the tiny-lr plugin. We’ll also test a small Angular2 project to make sure our project has what it takes to get an Angular2 app into the wild.
