Testing the angular project service for specific headers in $ http requests using $ httpBackend, jasmine

Question

I want to check if a specific header is present in the request. This is an article that helped me crack the headlines.

http://jbavari.imtqy.com/blog/2014/06/20/testing-interceptor-headers-in-angularjs/

Below is a snippet from my test. This gives me access to the headers, but the problem is that (it will), it is expected that the headers will be executed when I clear the requests, which does not give my test implicitly.

$httpBackend .expect('POST', 'https://www.someurl.com/login', userObj, function (headers) { expect(headers['content-type']).toBe('application/x-www-form-urlencoded'); }) .respond(); 

Any suggestions?
