Summary
In this chapter, you learned how to conduct thorough testing in Flutter using unit tests, widget tests, and mocking dependencies. We started by exploring unit tests, which verify the functionality of individual pieces of code, such as functions and classes. This included understanding the basic structure of unit tests and how to run them. Then, we moved on to widget tests, which ensure that UI components render correctly and interact as expected. There, you learned how to write widget tests to verify the behavior of your Flutter app’s UI components. Finally, we delved into mocking dependencies using mockito
, which allows you to simulate external services and repositories, allowing you to test your app’s components in isolation without having to rely on actual implementations.
Understanding unit testing in Flutter provides a solid foundation for ensuring that your app’s core logic works as intended. Learning how to transition from testing individual units...
