Hi everyone, Does anyone successfully implement https://github.com/Xray-App/xray-junit-extensions/ in android project for customizing test reports ?

hello, I have a problem with a UI test I want to write... I have a simple app: just a MainActivity that displays a list in a LazyColumn. The data is pulled from the MainViewModel which, in turns, ask it to a repository. I want to make a test for it, but the problem I am having is that I am not being able to configure the FakeRepository before the activity starts and call the viewmodel to fetch the data. I am using Hilt as a DI framework and "createAndroidComposeRule<MainActivity>()" in my test Is there a way to configure the fake before the activity start? or maybe delay the start of the activity until the fake is configured and after that make assertions with a composeRule other than the AndroidComposeTestRule?

I’m running in a weird error while testing android view models from junit tests. If I manually set

Dispatchers.setMain(UnconfinedTestDispatcher(testScheduler))

in my test function, it works. But if I use a Rule instead to do it, it fails. I do create the viewmodel from withing the test function and I do have the

@get:Rule

as the first thing in the test class. I really don’t understand what I’m doing wrong here. Any idea on what I am missing?

Hello! ✋ I would like to share my new tutorial, in which I implemented the Screenshot Testing inside a Compose Multiplatform App. If this is not the best channel to share it, I will delete this. Please, fell free to write me if you find some errors! 🙂 Any kind of feedback is welcome! https://medium.com/@munsra/using-screenshot-tests-in-a-compose-multiplatform-app-8fa171a3975d

hi all, is using the KSP or all-open plugin the only way to mock classes in Multiplatform project tests? currently, we are trying to migrate away from MockK since it doesn't support Multiplatform. we found that most mocking libraries either use KSP or all-open plugins, which require annotating the classes that need to be mocked. we’re not entirely comfortable with this approach, as it introduces test-related annotations/code into

commonMain

. right now, we’re leaning towards using Mokkery since it makes migration easier syntax-wise. however, it still requires us to annotate the classes for mocking. crossposting from #C3PQML5NU since it also make sense to ask here

kodee greetings Hey, I have a very simple question that's been driving me a little potty when using Kotlin Test because I have seen some conflicting opinions

```class FakeRepo: Repo {

private val users = mutableSetOf<String>()

fun addUser(name: String) {

users.add(name)

}

fun getUserCount(): Int {

return users.size

}

}

class SomeService(val repo: Repo) {

fun addUser(name: String) {

userRepository.addUser(name)

}

fun getUserCount(): Int {

return userRepository.getUserCount()

}

}```

If you write tests in this form:

```class SomeServiceTest {

private val repo = FakeRepo()

private val sut = SomeService(repo)

@Test

fun test1() {

service.registerUser("Alice")

val result = sut.getUserCount()

assertEquals(1, result)

}

@Test

fun test2() {

service.registerUser("Bob")

service.registerUser("Charlie")

val result = sut.getUserCount()

assertEquals(2, result)

}

}```

Each individual test will pass if it executes first, but wont pass if it's executed after the other. As the order tests are run isn't guaranteed, this is a common cause of issues with fakes that hold state.

Am I right here? The correct approach would be to init

sut

in a

@BeforeTest

method right? One of my colleagues mentioned

FakeRepo

would be recreated every time without

@BeforeTest

Anybody knows anything about Journeys with Gemini for Android UI Testing? Firebase AI Agent was released recently but I was wondering when Journeys would be released as well.

Hello, I'm looking for an assertion library or any tips to allow me to assert that a data class has all its fields equals to another data class, except for the possible lambdas. I don't care about the lambdas since they can't be tested anyway, a UI test will actually take care of that. But the fields like

label

and other stuff has great value to test. I would like to avoid overriding the equal function of the data class for obvious reasons. Any ideas ?

// Source code
data class Foo(
    val label: String,
    val onClicked: () -> Unit,
    val onValueChanged: (Int) -> Unit,
)

object FooMapper {
    fun map(
        label: String,
        viewModel: FooViewModel,
    ) = Foo(
        label = label,
        onClicked = { viewModel.onFooClicked() },
        onValueChanged = { viewModel.onValueChanged(it.toLong()) },
    )
}

class FooViewModel {
    fun onFooClicked() { /* whatever */ }
    fun onValueChanged(value: Long) { /* whatever */ }
}

// Unit tests
class FooMapperTest {
    @Test
    fun `foo map`() {
        // Given
        val label = "label"
        val fooViewModel = mockk<FooViewModel>()

        // When
        val result = FooMapper.map(label = label, viewModel = fooViewModel)

        // Then
        // !! What should I use there?
        assertEquals(
            Foo(label = label, onClicked = {}, onValueChanged = {}),
            result
        )
    }
}

Does anybody know when we can start using for Android testing?

I’m having drop testing a function that uses a withTimeoutOrNull(). Is there a recommended way of testing such code?

Hello 👋 Is there any good replacement for JUnit

ParameterizedTest

?

hi, is there a way to do deep comparison of two objects(of non data classes) in commonTest (something equivalent of

assertReflectionEquals

in java), i found

shouldBeEqualToComparingFields

in kotest assertions module but that is also jvm only.

kotlin-powerAssert = { id = "org.jetbrains.kotlin.plugin.power-assert", version.ref = "kotlin" }

plugins {
    ...
    alias(libs.plugins.kotlin.powerAssert)
}

import kotlin.test.Test


class ExampleUnitTest {
    @Test
    fun testFunction() {
        val hello = "Hello"
        val world = "world!"
        assert(hello.length == world.length)
    }
}

... No matter what I do, I'm getting just the basic

Assertion failed
java.lang.AssertionError: Assertion failed
	at foo.bar.ExampleUnitTest.testFunction(ExampleUnitTest.kt:11)
	at java.base/java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:569)
	at java.base/java.util.ArrayList.forEach(ArrayList.java:1511)
	at java.base/java.util.ArrayList.forEach(ArrayList.java:1511)

and not the right messages what am I doing wrong?

Maintainer of kotest here. Can you share anecdotes about flaky tests, what causes your tests to be flaky, how you resolve that, etc.. This will help us improve kotest. TIA!

For JS browser tests, is there a way to hook into the test infrastructure to start/stop a JVM server during the tests? Is anything like this possible?

Are there tools for mutation testing that are compatible with kotlin native? Like for when writing KMP libraries I can not just use Pitest if I got it correct since it’s a JVM thing

Have you found a way for jacoco ignoring compose previews except the annotation with

Generated

word inside?

Could we get the standard testing library to support

assume()

? Granted I'd prefer different naming, but that's less important than having it supported.

on JVM targets (but also in general) why do assertEquals with NaN arguments pass? I'd expect

kotlin.test.assertEquals(Double.NaN, Double.NaN, 1e-6)

to fail because

Double.NaN != Double.NaN

class FooTest {
	private val myDependency = Dependency(StandardTestDispatcher(testScheduler)) <----

	@Test fun foo() = runTest {
		// val dispatcher = StandardTestDispatcher(testScheduler)
		...
	}
}

I like to construct dependencies to the sut in properties, but

testScheduler

is only available from inside the

runTest

lambda, which is "too late" for me. How do I access

testScheduler

from a property?

FYI, we’re doing HTML snapshot testing in Redwood. I would love to get this into a standalone library but I haven’t done the work for that yet. Here’s what it looks like!

@Test
  fun happyPath() = runTest {
    val helloWorld = document.createElement("div").apply {
      appendElement("h1") {
        appendText("hello world")
      }
    }
    snapshotter.snapshot(helloWorld, "happyPath", Frame.None)
  }

ℹ️: testballoon TestBalloon 0.6.0-K2.2.0 has been successfully tested to work with Kotlin 2.2.20. With its variants, the latest TestBalloon release 0.6.0 continues to support all Kotlin versions since 2.0.0.

A little point... how could one use Robolectric with test balloon? https://robolectric.org/androidx_test/ seems to have it's own runner...

What's everyone favorite solution to not run every apple test but still build all the targets? I basically want to test on my host machine + one iOS simulator but skip all the tv/watch/etc...

Hi! I’m setting up kover in a legacy project before I start breaking apart the spaghetti code. I some modules have 100% class coverage but the other metrics, method, branch, line are at 0% and instruction is at 1,2%. I didn’t find an explanation on what is measured to give those numbers. Are private functions took in account for the total of testable code for example? If yes, should I make them intern so I can test them?

I'm migrating from

jvm

to

kmp

and I'm not sure what to do about my `@Rule`s in junit tests. How would I migrate these, other than switching away to something like `kotest`etc?

A small poll; I create a test with a timeout of 5 seconds. The test body itself takes 2 seconds. However, there is a finalizer/clean up function that runs afterwards and takes 4 seconds. Should the test fail because the timeout has been exceeded? 👌 : the finalizer is included in the timeout 🚫 : the finalizer is not included in the timeout
