Summary
In this chapter, we delved into unit testing within the MAUI framework, specifically focusing on testing ViewModels and some MAUI components. It’s worth noting that while we focused on these areas, the tools and techniques discussed are equally effective for testing services, repositories, and other integral parts of your application. Beyond just validating the code’s functionality, unit testing acts as a safety net, ensuring maintainability and robustness by reducing the chances of regression bugs. This powerful approach empowers us to iterate faster, removing the constant need for cumbersome deployments or manual checks. Leveraging mock implementations, we can seamlessly mimic and validate countless scenarios, and this validation remains ingrained in our code base. As we add or modify features, this ensures every intricate use case remains covered. A key takeaway is the significant portion of our app that can be tested independently of platform-specific details...
