Changelog

0.15.0

• Add loadAppFonts() to display your app fonts on screenshots #66

• New direct access to properties from WidgetSelector #71
  • spot<MyWidget>().getWidgetProp(widgetProp('color', (widget) => widget.color));
  • spot<_MyContainer>().getStateProp(stateProp<String, _MyContainerState>('innerValue', (s) => s.innerValue));
  • spot<_MyContainer>().getRenderObjectProp(renderObjectProp<Size, RenderBox>('size', (r) => r.size));

• Fix code samples of whereWidgetProp(), whereElementProp() and whereRenderObjectProp() #67

0.14.0

• New: Timeline! Failing tests now print a timeline with screenshots of all interactions (actions and assertions) as HTML report #57
• act.tap now checks for multiple tappable position when the center is not tappable for some reason #60
• act.tap now reports a useful error when the widget is 0px/0px or invisible #61

0.13.0

• Add act.dragUntilVisible() #59

0.12.1

• Support for Flutter 3.22
• Remove unused dependencies #55

0.12.0

• Breaking Offstage support. By default Offstage widgets are not found by spot<W>(). Use spotOffstage().spot<W>() to find them. spotAllWidgets() returns onstage and offstage widgets. Use .overrideWidgetPresence(WidgetPresence.offstage) to modify a WidgetSelector to search for offstage, onstage or combined #45
• New: act.enterText(spot<TextField>(), 'Hello World!') allows to enter text into a EditableText #51
• Negating parents is not yet supported (spot<ListView>().withParent(spot<Scaffold>().atMost(0))). It now throws to prevent unexpected behavior. #50
• act.tap(spot<ElevatedButton>()) now pumps automatically after the tap #52

0.11.0

• Add support for Flutter 3.20
• Update checks to 0.3.0 #48
• Remove deprecated property selector from withProp() and hasProp(). Use elementSelector instead
• Widen test_api version range to include 0.7.X

0.10.0

High-level API changes

• Breaking spotText('dash') can now return multiple widgets
• New: .atLeast(n) and .atMost(n) and .amount(n) to force the number of expected widgets. .atMost(0) can be used to test that a widget does not exist!
• Deprecated: spotSingle<W>() is now deprecated. Use spot<W>() instead, or spot<W>().atMost(1) to indicate that only a single widget is expected.
• Fix: .first() and .last()
• New: .atIndex(n) allows to get the widget at a specific index (when multiple are found)
• Deprecate: allWidgets in favor of spotAllWidgets() to avoid conflicts with local variables
• New: getDiagnosticProp<T>('name') for easy access to the values of a diagnostic property #40
• New: hasEffectiveTextStyle, withEffectiveTextStyleMatching(), withEffectiveTextStyle() #36, #38
• Improve: WidgetSelector.toString() has been improved, has now separators for stages and adds braces. Example: Center with child SizedBox ❯ with parent (Scaffold ᗕ Row)
• Added tons of documentation and examples

Advanced API changes

Those changes can be breaking for packages that depend on spot or advanced usages, but should not affect most users.

• Breaking WidgetSelector now has List<ElementFilter> stages, replacing the previous props, parents, children and elementFilters.
• Breaking WidgetSelector constructor and copyWith signature changed, reflecting the new properties. createElementFilters(), createCandidateGenerator() and toStringWithoutParents() have been removed.
• WidgetSelector now has a quantityConstraint property (deprecates expectedQuantity) that allows setting the min and max number of expected widgets.
• WidgetSelector replaces SingleWidgetSelector and MultiWidgetSelector
• Breaking Quantity assertions like .doesNotExist() or .existsOnce() now return WidgetMatcher/MultiWidgetMatcher instead of WidgetSnapshot. To get the WidgetSnapshot use snapshot() instead.
• Breaking Remove WidgetSelector.cast because it lost information and was untested
• Breaking PropFilter has been renamed to PredicateFilter
• Breaking PredicateWithDescription has been removed
• Breaking CandidateGenerator has been removed
• Explicitly export all classes/extensions/functions to prevent accidental leaks of internal APIs

0.10.0-beta.3

This release contains breaking changes to the "internal" WidgetSelector API. Unless you are using the WidgetSelector directly, you should not be affected by this.

The end-user spot API is not affected.

• Breaking WidgetSelector now has List<ElementFilter> stages, replacing the previous props, parents, children and elementFilters.
• Breaking WidgetSelector constructor and copyWith signature changed, reflecting the new properties. createElementFilters(), createCandidateGenerator() and toStringWithoutParents() have been removed.
• Breaking PropFilter has been renamed to PredicateFilter
• Breaking PredicateWithDescription has been removed
• Breaking CandidateGenerator has been removed
• WidgetSelector.toString() has been improved, has now separators for stages and adds braces. Example: Center with child SizedBox ❯ with parent (Scaffold ᗕ Row)
• Fix .atIndex(n) to be executed at the right time, not after all other filters.

0.10.0-beta.2

• New getDiagnosticProp<T>('name') for easy access to the values of a diagnostic property #40
• New hasEffectiveTextStyle, withEffectiveTextStyleMatching(), withEffectiveTextStyle() #36, #38
• Tons of documentation and examples #37, #39
• Restructure of internal files

0.10.0-beta.1

Eventually Breaking, but only the class names. The end user API stays the same.

• spotSingle<W>() is now deprecated. Use spot<W>() instead, or spot<W>().atMost(1) to indicate that only a single widget is expected.
• WidgetSelector replaces SingleWidgetSelector and MultiWidgetSelector
• WidgetSelector now has a quantityConstraint property (deprecates expectedQuantity) that allows setting the min and max number of expected widgets.
• New: .atIndex(n) allows to get the widget at a specific index (when multiple are found)
• Fix: .first() and .last() now work after calling .copyWith()
• Breaking Quantity assertions like .doesNotExist() or .existsOnce() now return WidgetMatcher/MultiWidgetMatcher instead of WidgetSnapshot. To get the WidgetSnapshot use snapshot() instead.
• spotText('a') can now return multiple widgets
• Breaking remove WidgetSelector.cast because it lost information and was untested

0.7.0

• New prop API with hasWidgetProp() makes it easy to filter and assert properties of Widgets. This replaces the old hasProp() method which was based on way to complicated package:checks context.

  // Old ⛈️
  spotSingle<Checkbox>().existsOnce().hasProp(
      selector: (e) => e.context.nest(
        () => ['Checkbox', 'value'],
        (e) => Extracted.value((e.widget as Checkbox).value),
      ),
      match: (it) => it.equals(true),
    );
  

  // New ✨
  spotSingle<Checkbox>().existsOnce().hasWidgetProp(
      prop: widgetProp('value', (widget) => widget.value),
      match: (value) => value.isTrue(),
    );
  

  The prop API is also available for Element and RenderObject.

• Never miss asserting your WidgetSelector. All methods returning a WidgetSelector are now annotated with @useResult. This will cause a lint warning when you only define a WidgetSelector without asserting it.

  spot<FloatingActionButton>().withChild(spotIcon(Icons.add)); // warning, no assertion
    
  final plusFab = spot<FloatingActionButton>().withChild(spotIcon(Icons.add)); // ok, assigned
  spot<FloatingActionButton>().withChild(spotIcon(Icons.add)).existsOnce(); // ok, asserted
  

• It is now easy to directly access the Widget of a SingleWidgetSelector with snapshotWidget(). It also works for the associated Element and RenderObject. Use snapshotElement() and snapshotRenderObject().

  -final checkbox = spotSingle<Checkbox>().snapshot().widget;
  +final checkbox = spotSingle<Checkbox>().snapshotWidget();
  print(checkbox.checkColor);
