Ext.getStore() returns undefined while testing with Siesta

Question

In ExtJs application to make getStore work controllers, models and stores are added in Application.js. But for testing with siesta, I can't make any changes in Application.js.

Calling Ext.getStore(storeId) directly is returning undefined. I have tried by adding model in preload, but it doesn't help.

What should I do for this?

-------------------------Code in the testFile AnalysisController.t.js ---------------------

StartTest(function(t){

var testStore = Ext.getStore('Nm.store.analysis.TestStore'); //testStore is undefined

});

-------------------------Code in testModel.js-------------------------

Ext.define('Nm.model.analysis.TestModel', 
    {
    extend: 'Ext.data.Model',    
    fields: [ 
            {name:'lastName',type:'string'},
            {name:'age',type:'int'},
            {name:'relationDescription',type:'string'},
            {name:'dateOfBirth',type:'date',dateFormat: 'm-D-Y'}
            ]
    });

-------------------------Code in testStore.js-------------------------

Ext.define('Nm.store.analysis.TestStore',{
    extend : 'Ext.data.Store',
    requires: ['Nm.model.analysis.TestModel'],
    model : 'Nm.model.analysis.TestModel'
});

-------------------------Code in harness file testIndex.js----------------

var Harness = Siesta.Harness.Browser.ExtJS;

Harness.configure({
    title       : 'Samples',
    loaderPath  : { 'Nm' : 'app' },
    preload : [
        "http://cdn.sencha.io/ext/gpl/4.2.0/resources/css/ext-all.css",
        "http://cdn.sencha.io/ext/gpl/4.2.0/ext-all-debug.js"
    ]

});

Harness.start({
        group               : 'Controller',
        items               : [
            'test/AnalysisController.t.js'
        ]}
);

Answer 1

to use Ext.getStore() you have to register the store I think.

plz read

Answer 2

Check if Ext is defined in your test file. Although Siesta supports Ext, the variable Ext is not defined by default. The simplest way to do this is just by adding the following at the top of your test:

var Ext = test.global.Ext;

Answer 3

To load a "global" store via Ext.getStore(), it must be registered in the application.

To do that, ensure it is added to the stores array in your main app class

Ext.application({
    extend: 'Ext.app.Application',
    stores: [ add global store classes here ]
});
