testing_app

A Sample app that shows different types of testing in Flutter.

This particular sample uses the Provider package but any other state management approach would do.

Goals for this sample

Show how to perform:

  • Widget Testing,
  • Flutter Driver(Integration) Testing,
  • Performance Testing, and
  • State Management Testing using the Provider package.

How to run tests

  • Navigate to the project's root folder using command line and follow the instructions below.

To run tests using only the Flutter SDK:

The Flutter SDK can run unit tests and widget tests in a virtual machine, without the need of a physical device or emulator.

  • To run all the test files in the test/ directory in one go, run flutter test.
  • To run a particular test file, run flutter test test/<file_path>

To run tests on a physical device/emulator:

  • Widget Tests:
    • Run flutter run test/<file_path>
  • Flutter Driver Tests:
    • Run flutter drive --target=test_driver/<file_path>
      • eg. flutter drive --target=test_driver/app.dart to run the test in test_driver/app_test.dart
  • Performance Tests:
    • Run flutter drive --target=test_driver/app.dart --driver test_driver/perf_test.dart --profile --trace-startup
      • Using a physical device and running performance tests in profile mode is recommended.
      • The --trace-startup option is used to avoid flushing older timeline events when the timeline gets long.
  • State Management Tests:
    • For testing state using Flutter Driver
      • Run flutter drive --target=test_driver/<file_path>

CI/CD

  • Refer .travis.yml and the tool directory to see how to test Flutter projects using Travis-CI.

Note that we aren't performing Flutter Driver tests using the Travis tool in this repo. That is because it's recommended to use physical devices to run Driver tests. You can use Firebase Test Lab, Codemagic or any platform of your choice to do that.
