Getting Started

Add pub dependencies on the command line. For easy state management, add provider:

$ flutter pub add provider

For self-driving testing of Flutter code on devices and emulators, add integration_test:

$ flutter pub add --dev --sdk=flutter integration_test

For an advanced API to test Flutter applications that run on real devices and emulators, add flutter_driver:

$ flutter pub add --dev --sdk=flutter flutter_driver

For general test tooling, add test:

$ flutter pub add --dev test

For handling app navigation, add go_router:

$ flutter pub add go_router

Unit testing the provider

An example of ChangeNotifier model class - favorites.dart:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

/// The [Favorites] class holds a list of favorite items saved by the user.
class Favorites extends ChangeNotifier {
  final List<int> _favoriteItems = [];

  List<int> get items => _favoriteItems;

  void add(int itemNo) {
    _favoriteItems.add(itemNo);
    notifyListeners();
  }

  void remove(int itemNo) {
    _favoriteItems.remove(itemNo);
    notifyListeners();
  }
}

Write unit tests for it - favorites_test.dart:

import 'package:test/test.dart';
import 'package:testing_app/models/favorites.dart';

void main() {
  group('Testing App Provider', () {
    var favorites = Favorites();

    test('A new item should be added', () {
      var number = 35;
      favorites.add(number);
      expect(favorites.items.contains(number), true);
    });

    test('An item should be removed', () {
      var number = 45;
      favorites.add(number);
      expect(favorites.items.contains(number), true);
      favorites.remove(number);
      expect(favorites.items.contains(number), false);
    });
  });
}

Run the tests:

$ flutter test test/models/favorites_test.dart

Widget testing

An example of the Widget class - home.dart in lib/screens/home.dart:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:go_router/go_router.dart';
import 'package:provider/provider.dart';
import '../models/favorites.dart';
import 'favorites.dart';

class HomePage extends StatelessWidget {
  static String routeName = '/';

  const HomePage({super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        title: const Text('Testing Sample'),
        actions: <Widget>[
          TextButton.icon(
            onPressed: () {
              context.go('/${FavoritesPage.routeName}');
            },
            icon: const Icon(Icons.favorite_border),
            label: const Text('Favorites'),
          ),
        ],
      ),
      body: ListView.builder(
        itemCount: 100,
        cacheExtent: 20.0,
        padding: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(vertical: 16),
        itemBuilder: (context, index) => ItemTile(index),
      ),
    );
  }
}

class ItemTile extends StatelessWidget {
  final int itemNo;

  const ItemTile(this.itemNo, {super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    var favoritesList = Provider.of<Favorites>(context);

    return Padding(
      padding: const EdgeInsets.all(8.0),
      child: ListTile(
        leading: CircleAvatar(
          backgroundColor: Colors.primaries[itemNo % Colors.primaries.length],
        ),
        title: Text(
          'Item $itemNo',
          key: Key('text_$itemNo'),
        ),
        trailing: IconButton(
          key: Key('icon_$itemNo'),
          icon: favoritesList.items.contains(itemNo)
              ? const Icon(Icons.favorite)
              : const Icon(Icons.favorite_border),
          onPressed: () {
            !favoritesList.items.contains(itemNo)
                ? favoritesList.add(itemNo)
                : favoritesList.remove(itemNo);
            ScaffoldMessenger.of(context).showSnackBar(
              SnackBar(
                content: Text(favoritesList.items.contains(itemNo)
                    ? 'Added to favorites.'
                    : 'Removed from favorites.'),
                duration: const Duration(seconds: 1),
              ),
            );
          },
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

Write widget tests for it - home_test.dart:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_test/flutter_test.dart';
import 'package:provider/provider.dart';
import 'package:testing_app/models/favorites.dart';
import 'package:testing_app/screens/home.dart';

Widget createHomeScreen() => ChangeNotifierProvider<Favorites>(
      create: (context) => Favorites(),
      child: const MaterialApp(
        home: HomePage(),
      ),
    );

void main() {
  group('Home Page Widget Tests', () {

  	testWidgets('Testing if ListView shows up', (tester) async {  
      await tester.pumpWidget(createHomeScreen());
      expect(find.byType(ListView), findsOneWidget);
    });  

    testWidgets('Testing Scrolling', (tester) async {
      await tester.pumpWidget(createHomeScreen());
      expect(find.text('Item 0'), findsOneWidget);
      await tester.fling(
        find.byType(ListView),
        const Offset(0, -200),
        3000,
      );
      await tester.pumpAndSettle();
      expect(find.text('Item 0'), findsNothing);
    });
  });
}

Run the tests:

$ flutter test test/home_test.dart

Testing app UI with integration tests

The integration tests needed to be run on main.dart:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:go_router/go_router.dart';
import 'package:provider/provider.dart';
import 'models/favorites.dart';
import 'screens/favorites.dart';
import 'screens/home.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(const TestingApp());
}

final _router = GoRouter(
  routes: [
    GoRoute(
      path: HomePage.routeName,
      builder: (context, state) {
        return const HomePage();
      },
      routes: [
        GoRoute(
          path: FavoritesPage.routeName,
          builder: (context, state) {
            return const FavoritesPage();
          },
        ),
      ],
    ),
  ],
);

class TestingApp extends StatelessWidget {
  const TestingApp({super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return ChangeNotifierProvider<Favorites>(
      create: (context) => Favorites(),
      child: MaterialApp.router(
        title: 'Testing Sample',
        theme: ThemeData(
          primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
          useMaterial3: true,
        ),
        routerConfig: _router,
      ),
    );
  }
}

Create a directory called integration_test in the project's root directory, and in that directory create a new file named app_test.dart:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_test/flutter_test.dart';
import 'package:testing_app/main.dart';

void main() {
  group('Testing App', () {
    testWidgets('Favorites operations test', (tester) async {
      await tester.pumpWidget(const TestingApp());

      final iconKeys = [
        'icon_0',
        'icon_1',
        'icon_2',
      ];

      for (var icon in iconKeys) {
        await tester.tap(find.byKey(ValueKey(icon)));
        await tester.pumpAndSettle(const Duration(seconds: 1));

        expect(find.text('Added to favorites.'), findsOneWidget);
      }

      await tester.tap(find.text('Favorites'));
      await tester.pumpAndSettle();

      final removeIconKeys = [
        'remove_icon_0',
        'remove_icon_1',
        'remove_icon_2',
      ];

      for (final iconKey in removeIconKeys) {
        await tester.tap(find.byKey(ValueKey(iconKey)));
        await tester.pumpAndSettle(const Duration(seconds: 1));

        expect(find.text('Removed from favorites.'), findsOneWidget);
      }
    });
  });
}

Run tests:

$ flutter test integration_test/app_test.dart

Testing app performance with Flutter Driver

Add perf_test.dart into integration_test directory too:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_test/flutter_test.dart';
import 'package:integration_test/integration_test.dart';
import 'package:testing_app/main.dart';

void main() {
  group('Testing App Performance', () {
    final binding = IntegrationTestWidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
    binding.framePolicy = LiveTestWidgetsFlutterBindingFramePolicy.fullyLive;

    testWidgets('Scrolling test', (tester) async {
      await tester.pumpWidget(const TestingApp());

      final listFinder = find.byType(ListView);

      await binding.traceAction(() async {
        await tester.fling(listFinder, const Offset(0, -500), 10000);
        await tester.pumpAndSettle();

        await tester.fling(listFinder, const Offset(0, 500), 10000);
        await tester.pumpAndSettle();
      }, reportKey: 'scrolling_summary');
    });
  });
}

Create a folder named test_driver with a file named perf_driver.dart to capture the performance results:

import 'package:flutter_driver/flutter_driver.dart' as driver;
import 'package:integration_test/integration_test_driver.dart';

Future<void> main() {
  return integrationDriver(
    responseDataCallback: (data) async {
      if (data != null) {
        final timeline = driver.Timeline.fromJson(
            data['scrolling_summary'] as Map<String, dynamic>);

        final summary = driver.TimelineSummary.summarize(timeline);

        await summary.writeTimelineToFile(
          'scrolling_summary',
          pretty: true,
          includeSummary: true,
        );
      }
    },
  );
}

Run tests:

$ flutter drive \
  --driver=test_driver/perf_driver.dart \
  --target=integration_test/perf_test.dart \
  --profile \
  --no-dds
