Try to import DataTablesModule in your test (spec). It helped me.

import { DataTablesModule } from 'angular-datatables';

 beforeEach(async(() => {
    TestBed.configureTestingModule({
      declarations: [ MyComponent ], imports: [ DataTablesModule ]
    })
    .compileComponents();
  }));

To solve this error they must change in the package.json the dependency: "angular-datatables": "^ 0.6.3", by "angular-datatables": "^ 6.0.0".

then update your package.json with the npm install command

Note: sorry for my level of English
