CodingWithMitch - UI Testing with Jetpack and AndroidX

Description
Course Objective:

Take your knowledge of UI testing to the next level by writing real UI tests for a demo app that uses:

• Kotlin
• Dagger2
• Navigation Components
• MVI Architecture (repository pattern)
• A real network layer
• Flows and Channels

We'll be using the newest testing tools from androidx including:

• Espresso Idling Resource
• ActivityScenario
• FragmentScenario
• Navigation Testing Artifact

Target Audience:
Those who have some experience writing UI tests. In this course I'll be using the newest tools available so if you think your knowledge of UI testing is getting a bit dated, this will be the perfect course.
WARNING:
There is no database caching in this course. No Room Persistence Library.
Prerequisites:

1. UI Testing for Beginners
2. Introduction to MVI Architecture

What you'll learn:

• Building Test FAKES for any class
  • Do not mistake this for mocks. That is something different.
• Custom AndroidJUnitTestRunner
• ActivityScenario
• ActivityScenarioRule
• Types of Mocking and test fakes:
  1. Dagger Components
  2. Dagger Modules
  3. Application class
  4. Fragment Factory
  5. Glide ImageLoader
  6. Retrofit network requests
• Navigation Components:
  • Testing navigation (both fragments in isolation and end to end testing)
  • Navigation Testing Artifact
• Glide (Setting images in test)
• RecyclerView Testing:
  • Scrolling and list item verification
  • Clicking items to trigger event
• Stubbing a Test Data Source (Network)
• End-to-end tests with ActivityScenario
• Isolation tests with FragmentScenario
• Configuration changes (activity/fragment recreation)
• Test assets for providing fake network data
• Test Orchestrator:
  • Each test runs in its own Instrumentation instance (no/minimal shared state!)
