      this.selectedCategoryDetails.forEach((selectedCategory) => {
        if (selectedCategory.category === categoryDetails.category) {
          isCategoryExist = true;
          selectedCategory.habitDetails = selectedCategory.habitDetails.concat(
            categoryDetails.habitDetails
          );
        }
      });
    }

      //have to add the code here 
})
    
  }

describe("healthy habits", () => {
    beforeEach(() => {
      component.selectedCategoryDetails = [
        {
          category: "Drink More Water",
          habitDetails: [
            { trigger: "wake up", target: "drink a glass of water" },
          ],
          showDetails: false,
        },
        {
          category: "Drink More Water",
          habitDetails: [
            { trigger: "wake up", target: "drink a glass of water" },
          ],
          showDetails: true,
        },
      ];
    });
    it("should remove habitsAnd triggers", () => {
      component.deletedata(1);
      expect(component.selectedCategoryDetails.length).toBe(1);
    });
});

So when we click on yes button from the popup it has to remove the particular item. I am new to angular can anyone help me on this

Answer

You could just filter out the element that needs to be removed:

public deletedata(categoryDetail) {
  this.selectedCategoryDetails = 
    this.selectedCategoryDetails.filter(cd => cd !== categoryDetail);
}

The test that you included passes an index to the delete method, instead of the actual object. You should modify the test to pass the object instead:

it("should remove habitsAnd triggers", () => {
  component.deletedata(component.selectedCategoryDetails[1]);
  expect(component.selectedCategoryDetails.length).toBe(1);
});
