Mocking time in Jasmine specs

The easiest way to freeze or travel through time in a Jasmine spec is to use the built-in jasmine.clock() Show archive.org snapshot .

• After jasmine.clock().install() you can use it to control setTimeout and setInterval.
• Using jasmine.clock().mockDate() you can mock new Date() (which returns the current time in Javascript)

While you can use SinonJS Fake timers Show archive.org snapshot , using the built-in Jasmine clock will save you an extra dependency.
