    Component API tests are written for all components in the library. These are Paparazzi snapshot tests that are parameterized to cover all the combinations of values for the properties in the API of a given component. Additionally, they include as parameters: color theme, layout direction, and optionally other properties that may be relevant to the component under test (e.g., font scale).

    Looks really nice. Sadly, I wasn't able to test it because it doesn't support application module

  • How do you guys test the UI of your app?
    1 project | /r/androiddev | 7 Jan 2023
    Curious what you mean by hilt refuses to work and what you have tried? Usually though if I'm testing the UI of the app, I might use paparazzi for screenshot tests because it doesn't have to run the test on device. Then for a UI integration test for navigation and user flows, use espresso and replace the network data sources with mocks which in your case would be with hilt android test rule and test install in annotation .

  • substitute for telemetry

    DroneBridge on the ESP32 is probably the easiest way to get started with WiFi telemetry. It functions just the way a SiK radio (or USB connection) would.

    There's DroneBridge but it only runs on Raspberry Pi and the ESP32 which is the ESP8266s bigger brother.
