Flutter Testing Standards

Testing Standards

Priority: P1 (HIGH)

Ensuring code reliability through multi-layered testing strategies.

Structure

test/
├── unit/ # Business logic & mapping (Blocs, Repositories, UseCases)
├── widget/ # UI component behavior (Screens, Widgets)
└── integration/ # End-to-end flows

Implementation Guidelines

• Testing Pyramid: Maintain ~70% Unit Tests, ~20% Widget Tests, ~10% Integration Tests.
• Mocks: Use mocktail for type-safe, boilerplate-free mocking.
• Unit Tests: Test logic in isolation. Verify all edge cases (Success, Failure, Exception).
• Widget Tests: Test high-value interactions (Button clicks, Error states, Loading indicators).
• BLoC Tests: Use blocTest to verify state emission sequences.
• Code Coverage: Aim for 80%+ coverage on Domain and Presentation (Logic) layers.
