Test data generator aimed to simplify Test-Driven Development with Dart

Activatory

This project is aimed to bring a test data generator to Dart's ecosystem. This will greatly simplify unit testing and especially Test-Driven Development.

This project is inspired by .NET Autofixture library.

This is my first Dart project. Actually, this is my "pet-project" so there are no exact plans and etc.

Project TODO's:

• Add primitive types support
• Add complex types support
  • using constructor
  • using factory methods
  • using named constructors
  • using default argument values for positional arguments
  • using named arguments
  • using default argument values for named arguments
• Customization of complex object factory strategy selection: random/round robin/first/shortest/longest
• Add ability to explicit register factory
• Add fixed (singleton) values support
• Add parameter overloading by name
• Add parameter overloading by type
• Add configuration layers and reusability for complex cases
• Add paramsObject and paramsObject to factory matching
• Add ability to customize context before data generation without saving settings to context
• Add paramsObject layering
• *Read autofixture sources to gather ideas and vision
• *Add examples and docs
• *Add CI/CD:
  • *build and publish to pub
  • *coverage reports
• Add nice looking readme and github repo info
• Add recursion handling (which one strategy should be used?)
• Encapsulate all errors inside library (throws only ActivatoryException)
• Add feature customization (e.g. ctor resolution strategy, default values handling and etc)
