flutter_test library

Testing library for flutter, built on top of package:test.

Test Configuration

The testing library exposes a few constructs by which projects may configure their tests.

Per test or per file

Due to its use of package:test as a foundation, the testing library allows for tests to be initialized using the existing constructs found in package:test. These include the setUp and setUpAll methods.

Per directory hierarchy

In addition to the constructs provided by package:test, this library supports the configuration of tests at the directory level.

Before a test file is executed, the Flutter test framework will scan up the directory hierarchy, starting from the directory in which the test file resides, looking for a file named flutter_test_config.dart. If it finds such a configuration file, the file will be assumed to have a main method with the following signature:

Future<void> testExecutable(FutureOr<void> Function() testMain) async { }

The test framework will execute that method and pass it the main() method of the test. It is then the responsibility of the configuration file's main() method to invoke the test's main() method.

After the test framework finds a configuration file, it will stop scanning the directory hierarchy. In other words, the test configuration file that lives closest to the test file will be selected, and all other test configuration files will be ignored. Likewise, it will stop scanning the directory hierarchy when it finds a pubspec.yaml, since that signals the root of the project.

If no configuration file is located, the test will be executed like normal.
