TypeError: не удается прочитать свойство «длина» null в файле спецификации машинописного текста

Я получаю TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of null за тестирование моего компонента. как это исправить?

вот хтмл:

<header-nav
    [eventList] = "eventList$ | async"
    [eventListSize] = "(eventList$ | async).length"
    (selectedEvent) = "eventSelected($event)"
    (setLang) = "langChanged($event)"
    [currentLang] = "currentLang$ | async"
    [langList] = "langList$ | async"
    (leftNavi) = "leftNaviHandler($event)"
    >

вот тс файл:

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { Router } from '@angular/router';
import { Store, select } from "@ngrx/store";
import { Observable } from "rxjs";
import { ModelEvent, EventState } from "./../../../calendar/models/model.event";
import { ModelLang, ModelLonguage } from "./../../../shared-components/models/models";
import { CalendarActions, Load, EventSelected } from "./../../../calendar/state/calendar.actions";
import * as fromRoot from  "./../../../calendar/state";
import * as fromObservables from  "./../../state";
import { Lang, LoadLang } from "./../../state/actions/shared.actions";
import { ShowNavi } from "./../../../shared-components/state/actions/shared.actions";

@Component({
    selector: 'header-nav-shell',
    templateUrl: './header-nav-shell.component.html',
    styleUrls: ['./header-nav-shell.component.scss']
})
export class HeaderNavShellComponent implements OnInit {
    /**
    * declartion of observable events
    */
    eventList$:Observable<ModelEvent[]>;
    eventListSize$:number;
    currentLang$:Observable<string>;
    langList$:Observable<ModelLonguage[]>;

    constructor(private store:Store<fromRoot.NewState>, private router:Router) { }

    ngOnInit() {
        this.store.dispatch(new Load());
        this.store.dispatch( new LoadLang());
        this.eventList$ = this.store.pipe(select(fromRoot.getEvents));
        this.currentLang$ = this.store.pipe(select(fromObservables.getCurrentLang));
        this.langList$ = this.store.pipe(select(fromObservables.getLangList));
    }

    eventSelected(event) {
        this.store.dispatch(new EventSelected(event));
        this.router.navigateByUrl("iboCalendar");
    }

    langChanged(event) {
        this.store.dispatch( new Lang(event.Name));
    }

    leftNaviHandler(event):void {
        this.store.dispatch(new ShowNavi(event));
    }

}

вот файл спецификации:

    beforeEach(async(() => {
        TestBed.configureTestingModule({
            declarations: [ HeaderNavShellComponent, HeaderComponent, HeaderNavComponent ],
            imports:[

                StoreModule.forRoot({}),

            ],
            providers:[TranslateService, TranslateStore, Store, HttpClient ]
        })
        .compileComponents();
    }));

     beforeEach(fakeAsync(() => {
        fixture = TestBed.createComponent(HeaderNavShellComponent);
        component = fixture.componentInstance;
        tick(1000);
        fixture.detectChanges();
    }));


    it('should create', fakeAsync(() => {
        expect(component).toBeTruthy();
    }));

});

что я здесь не так делаю? кто-нибудь разберитесь со мной, пожалуйста? Я получаю длину из асинхронного значения.

заранее спасибо
