docs(tutorial/step-2): add beforeEach to load module

Don't forget that we need to load up the `phonecatApp` module into the test so that the controller
is available to be injected.
### Writing and Running Tests
Angular developers prefer the syntax of Jasmine's Behavior-driven Development (BDD) framework when
writing tests. Although Angular does not require you to use Jasmine, we wrote all of the tests in
