Testing is an essential task in every software project (or at least it should be one). This time we are focussing on the basics of unit testing in a simple Flutter application.

If you want to dive deep into testing Flutter applications, check out 📙 my free ebook with many more details!

I assume you are familiar with the concept of unit testing, the why and the what for. So we will focus on writing the test cases and how to structure them. This is mainly for people who didn’t write many or any tests for a Flutter application at all. It will give you a compact overview to start with. A link to the used sources is provided at the end.

This is the class we are going to write unit tests for.
