Testing is an integral part of our framework. As we build out components, we leverage unit and snapshot tests to ensure our components look and feel great in any kind of situation. The underlying framework we use is the SnapshotTesting framework. Our components can leverage different themes on top of various appearances, and they can be configured even further with configuration properties. As such, it’s important that we test these various permutations to ensure that our components look great no matter what environment or settings are applied.
SwiftUI has so many awesome features!! And none of them seem to play well with unit tests :( Am I missing something?
