Create a method named testingMyService on the service that logs the string, "This is my service!" when called. E.g.: myS

stuck

app.js 
angular.module('foobar', [])
.service('myService', function testingMyService (service){
 this.service = function () {
 console.log("This is my service!");
 },
 myService.testingMyService()
})
;

I had the exact same code but had to use "myService" with double quotes instead of 'myService' in single quotes. Hopes this helps somebody.

angular.module('foobar', [])
.service('myService', function(){
  this.testingMyService = function(){
  console.log("This is my service!")
  };
  });

The callback function should be anonymous.

of course, you don't need to define your function as myService for it to work.
