Testing steps (seem) to be wrong

[Suyashtnt]

Describe the bug I'm trying to test an angular app that uses ngx-electron, so I would assume that the test command template would work, but it doesnt

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Initalize nx workspace using angular
2. add ngx-electron 2.1 yarn add ngx-electron 2.2 import NgxElectronModule from it and add it into your app modules import 2.3 create a service with tests 2.4 inject ElectronService
3. add an electron app using this that points to the angular project
4. run nx run-many --target=test --projects=<frontend-app>,<electron-app> --parallel
5. See error

Expected behavior It runs the electron app and works

Screenshots

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 11 Insider build
• Nx Electron Version 11.1.3

Additional context If you need code I can provide I repo soon:tm:

Ok So I figured out why that error occurs(forgot to import and inject when testing) but it seems that ipcRenderer is null when testing, even though it works perfectly fine normally

Hi, I think you need to run inside an electron app in order that the ipc renderer will be initialized. So you can just test it just on the frontend.
