I have something like this in view:

<div>
 <div class="header-title">Example title 1</div>
</div>

<div>
 <div class="header-title">Example title 2</div>
</div>

In my karma test I would like to investigate all divs by class name and check if inner text is correct so I have following code in test:

[...]
debugTest = fixture.debugElement.query(By.css('.header-title'));
elementTest = debugTest.nativeElement;
[...]

it('should ponent div has a correct value', () => {
    fixture.detectChanges();
    const content = elementTest.textContent;
    expect(content).toContain('Example Title 1');
});

Following code works but I always get the first dom with .header-title class. How to extract next one? What if I have 20 divs with the same class name how to test them all?

Use queryAll() instead of query(), which returns an array.

query() returns single DebugElement which is always the first matching element, whereas queryAll() returns DebugElement[].

debugTest = fixture.debugElement.queryAll(By.css('.header-title')); 

So that you can access like

elementTest1 = debugTest[0].nativeElement;
elementTest2 = debugTest[1].nativeElement;
