Yep,

You have to PUT   
 

> $httpBackend.expectGET(articleEndpoint);


*before*

ArticleDetailCtrl = $controller('ArticleDetailCtrl', { $scope: scope });


*not *$httpBackend.when('GET', articleEndpoint).respond(jsonObject); 
before ArticleDetailCtrl = $controller('ArticleDetailCtrl', { $scope: scope 
});

You have to put your expectations before doing it :)

Do you understand ?

I suggest you to take 15min to read this 
: https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ngMock/service/$httpBackend
It will help you a lot !

Charly
