This makes it possible to substitute 'flutter run' for 'flutter test'
and actually watch a test run on a device.
For any test that depends on flutter_test:
1. Remove any import of 'package:test/test.dart'.
2. Replace `testWidgets('...', (WidgetTester tester) {`
with `testWidgets('...', (WidgetTester tester) async {`
3. Add an "await" in front of calls to any of the following:
* tap()
* tapAt()
* fling()
* flingFrom()
* scroll()
* scrollAt()
* pump()
* pumpWidget()
4. Replace any calls to `tester.flushMicrotasks()` with calls to
`await tester.idle()`.
There's a guarding API that you can use, if you have particularly
complicated tests, to get better error messages. Search for
TestAsyncUtils.
* Refactor widget test framework
Instead of:
```dart
test("Card Collection smoke test", () {
testWidgets((WidgetTester tester) {
```
...you now say:
```dart
testWidgets("Card Collection smoke test", (WidgetTester tester) {
```
Instead of:
```dart
expect(tester, hasWidget(find.text('hello')));
```
...you now say:
```dart
expect(find.text('hello'), findsOneWidget);
```
Instead of the previous API (exists, widgets, widget, stateOf,
elementOf, etc), you now have the following comprehensive API. All these
are functions that take a Finder, except the all* properties.
* `any()` - true if anything matches, c.f. `Iterable.any`
* `allWidgets` - all the widgets in the tree
* `widget()` - the one and only widget that matches the finder
* `firstWidget()` - the first widget that matches the finder
* `allElements` - all the elements in the tree
* `element()` - the one and only element that matches the finder
* `firstElement()` - the first element that matches the finder
* `allStates` - all the `State`s in the tree
* `state()` - the one and only state that matches the finder
* `firstState()` - the first state that matches the finder
* `allRenderObjects` - all the render objects in the tree
* `renderObject()` - the one and only render object that matches the finder
* `firstRenderObject()` - the first render object that matches the finder
There's also `layers' which returns the list of current layers.
`tap`, `fling`, getCenter, getSize, etc, take Finders, like the APIs
above, and expect there to only be one matching widget.
The finders are:
* `find.text(String text)`
* `find.widgetWithText(Type widgetType, String text)`
* `find.byKey(Key key)`
* `find.byType(Type type)`
* `find.byElementType(Type type)`
* `find.byConfig(Widget config)`
* `find.byWidgetPredicate(WidgetPredicate predicate)`
* `find.byElementPredicate(ElementPredicate predicate)`
The matchers (for `expect`) are:
* `findsNothing`
* `findsWidgets`
* `findsOneWidget`
* `findsNWidgets(n)`
* `isOnStage`
* `isOffStage`
* `isInCard`
* `isNotInCard`
Benchmarks now use benchmarkWidgets instead of testWidgets.
Also, for those of you using mockers, `serviceMocker` now automatically
handles the binding initialization.
This patch also:
* changes how tests are run so that we can more easily swap the logic
out for a "real" mode instead of FakeAsync.
* introduces CachingIterable.
* changes how flutter_driver interacts with the widget tree to use the
aforementioned new API rather than ElementTreeTester, which is gone.
* removes ElementTreeTester.
* changes the semantics of a test for scrollables because we couldn't
convince ourselves that the old semantics made sense; it only worked
before because flushing the microtasks after every event was broken.
* fixes the flushing of microtasks after every event.
* Reindent the tests
* Fix review comments
The "leaf merge" feature was getting confused when we reset the
SemanticsNode. We now separately track whether the node itself is marked
as being merged vs whether we inherited that state, and we don't reset
the inherited state until you're reattached or reserialised. In the
latter case, we do a "just in time" clearing of the flag just like we
previously did a "just in time" setting of the flag, except now the flag
we're setting or clearing is the inherited flag not the actual flag.
