Services needed in every components unit test
No neither of those. You're unit testing the component, so you don't want any external interference. You can create a mock version of the service, I like using ng-mocks to simplify a lot of this: https://www.npmjs.com/package/ng-mocks

Is Unit Testing in Angular overrated?
No way, you just mock the services. Check out this library: https://www.npmjs.com/package/ng-mocks

Also, for mocking, I recommend looking into ng-mocks. https://github.com/ike18t/ng-mocks It makes mocking really easy.

Unit testing library for Angular application
Correct. When unit testing, you want to test the unit (parent component) in isolation. To do this, you can use something like ng-mocks (my personal favorite) to create mock components. You could also use the NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA but I don't recommend this because I like to verify that my component loads w/ all of its dependencies (even if the are just mocks). If you test your parent component w/ all of its child components, then you are doing a form of integration testing. I tend to refer to it as a grey area between unit and integration testing because there are valuable tests that can be written fairly easily and cheaply that don't truly isolate parent components from their child components.

Nx 14.5 - Cypess v10, Output globs, Linter perf, React Tailwind support
Protractor has been deprecated for a while on the Angular CLI side and given Nx has had Cypress support for a while it has never been a popular choice. Starting with this release we're deprecating the generator for setting up Protractor and we're planning on removing support entirely in Nx v15.

Angular CLI and Nx - Why?
In recent releases, the Angular CLI kept reducing its feature set, mainly due to tools such as Protractor as well as TSLint being deprecated. As a result, starting with Angular 14, the Angular CLI provides the following when generating a new application:
