This may not look like much, but getting the image below to be generated by a Golden Image Test was a challenge!
I've managed to do all this by piecing out information from various StackOverflow and GitHub issues, without using any 3rd party packages. 💪
How does it work? 🧵
Believe it or not, all these steps need to be done programmatically:
- loading a custom font (Roboto)
- loading the material icons as a font
- precaching all image assets
That's because widget tests (which golden tests are based on) won't do any of this by default.
It may be a bit too much to fit all this in a thread, so I'll probably write an article instead.
And I'll also cover all the findings in my Flutter course, which already includes many in-depth lessons about automated testing! 👇
