Using it in your project

1. Import it into your test files:

   import 'package:over_react_test/over_react_test.dart';

2. Run your tests:

   $ dart run test test/your_test_file.dart

Naming Conventions

Variables and Types

Usage	Actual Type	Suggested Referencing
render and render helper functions	ReactComponent | Element	instance
Component class	ReactClass	type
VDOM Instance (invoked UiProps)	ReactElement	-ReactElement or not suffixed
findDomNode, queryByTestId, etc.	Element	node
The Dart component	react.Component (backed by ReactComponent)	dartInstance
Invoked UiFactory	UiProps	builder

Example:

test('my test' () {
  var sampleBuilder = Sample();
  var sampleReactElement = sampleBuilder(); // Or var sample = sampleBuilder();
  var instance = render(sampleInstance);
  SampleComponent sampleDartInstance = getDartComponent(instance);
  var sampleNode = findDomNode(instance);
});

Test IDs

When coming up with test ID strings:

• DO NOT use spaces; space-delimited strings will be treated as separate test IDs

  Just like CSS class names, you can use multiple test IDs together, and use any one of them to target a given component/node.

• PREFER following our naming scheme for consistency across projects:

  <library>.<Component>[.<subpart>...].<part>

  We recommend including a library abbreviation and component name within a test ID so that it's easy to track down where that ID came from.

  Namespacing (.<subpart>) can be added however it makes sense.

  Finally, test IDs should be descriptive and useful in the context of tests.

  Examples:

  • wsd.DatepickerPrimitive.goToSelectedButton
  • sox.AbstractDataLayoutGroup.headerBlock.title

• CONSIDER adding multiple IDs to serve different purposes

  for (var i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
    // ...
      ..addTestId('foo.Bar.menuItem')
      ..addTestId('foo.Bar.menuItem.$i')
      ..addTestId('foo.Bar.menuItem.${items[i].id}')
    // ...
  }

  With the output of above code, you can:

  • target all of the Bar component's menu items using foo.Bar.menuItem
  • target the 4th item using foo.Bar.menuItem.3
  • target the item corresponding to an item with id baz123 using foo.Bar.menuItem.baz123

  This won't always be needed, but it comes in handy in certain cases.

Documentation

You would never skip reading the docs for a new language you are asked to learn, so please don't skip over reading our API documentation either.
