Testing with Fakes
Most unit tests should use fakes instead of making network requests to Google services.
- Code that uses
CloudTaskscan be tested by injecting the fakeFakeCloudTasks.
Import the fakes from the testing library:
import 'package:google_cloud_tasks_v2/testing.dart';
Option A: Using Constructor Closures (Recommended)
You can inject behavior by passing optional function callbacks to the fake's
constructor. Methods that are not provided will throw an UnsupportedError.
import 'package:google_cloud_tasks_v2/cloudtasks.dart';
import 'package:google_cloud_tasks_v2/testing.dart';
final fake = FakeCloudTasks(
getTask: (request) async {
// Assert request contents here if needed.
return Task();
},
);
Option B: Subclassing the Fake
For more complex test setups or shared states, you can subclass the fake and
override its methods. Methods that are not overridden will throw an
UnsupportedError.
import 'package:google_cloud_tasks_v2/cloudtasks.dart';
import 'package:google_cloud_tasks_v2/testing.dart';
final class MyFakeCloudTasks extends FakeCloudTasks {
@override
Future<Task> getTask(
GetTaskRequest request,
) async {
// Assert request contents here if needed.
return Task();
}
}
A Simple Test
import 'package:google_cloud_tasks_v2/cloudtasks.dart';
import 'package:google_cloud_tasks_v2/testing.dart';
import 'package:test/test.dart';
Future<void> functionUnderTest(CloudTasks service) async {
// Application logic here.
await service.getTask(GetTaskRequest());
// More application logic here.
}
void main() {
test('test', () async {
final fake = FakeCloudTasks(
getTask: (request) async {
// Assert request contents here.
return Task();
},
);
// Instead of verifying that `functionUnderTest` completes, you should verify
// the relevant properties of the result.
await expectLater(functionUnderTest(fake), completes);
});
}
