Support running/debugging Flutter Driver integration tests #2609
Description
I'm working through this guide trying to get to a point where I can step through driver scripts and/or driven apps in VSCode: https://medium.com/flutter-community/hot-reload-for-flutter-integration-tests-e0478b63bd54
Running the terminal commands works, but I haven't been able to get either side to work when launched from VSCode yet. There seem to be two things in the way:
- Setting a known
--observation-portvia"args"inlaunch.jsonseems to get overridden by the extension - There doesn't seem to be any way to run the driver program as a dart CLI command because the extension detects the project type from the workspace folder and offers no
launch.json-level override. It gets launched on the Android device I just launched the app on, and I can breakpoint through it but it kills the app on the device to launch the driver
Here's my best guess so far:
{
"name": "Integration Tests: Launch App",
"request": "launch",
"type": "dart",
"program": "test_driver/app.dart",
"args": [
"--dart-define=app.api=http://10.0.2.2:5378/api/v1", // special android IP for host, works
"--observatory-port 4567", // doesn't seem to work
"--disable-service-auth-codes"
],
"flutterMode": "debug", // don't know if needed
},
{
"name": "Integration Tests: Launch Driver",
"request": "launch",
"type": "dart",
"program": "test_driver/app_test.dart",
"deviceId": null, // this needs to run on the host computer, but it wants to run on the same device as the app
"env": {
"VM_SERVICE_URL": "http://127.0.0.1:4567"
},
},
