dev_test.dart #

dev_test brings (back) the solo and skip features on top of the test package

It acts as a global replacement for the test package to add (back) the solo and skip feature so that you can run/debug a filtered set of tests from the IDE without using pub run test. It remains however compatible the existing test package and tests can be run using pub run test. Make sure you have both dev_test and test as dependencies in your pubspec.yaml

solo_test, solo_group, skip_test, skip_group are marked as deprecated so that you don't commit code (check the dart analysis result) that might skip many needed tests. Also running tests will report if any tests were skipped.

Usage #

In your code replace

import 'package:test/test.dart';

with

import 'package:dev_test/test.dart';

solo_test, solo_group, skip_test, skip_group are marked as deprecated so that you don't commit code that might skip many needed tests.

testDescriptions add information about the current running test (list of String naming the current group and test)

devTestRun will be optionally needed if you have a mix of test and dev_test to make sure the declared tests or groups belongs to the correct group they are declared in
