Connecting Firestore emulator to flutter_test
358
As far as I know, Firebase does not support unit tests in Flutter because it is a plugin that requires native integration.
The tests in the Flutter Firebase repo are run in main.dart
, not unit tests.

I'm setting up integration tests for a Flutter app and having trouble connecting them to an instance of a Firestore emulator.
Here's my code:
import 'package:cloud_firestore/cloud_firestore.dart'; import 'package:flutter_test/flutter_test.dart'; void main() { TestWidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized(); Firestore firestore; setUp(() async { firestore = Firestore.instance; await firestore.settings(host: 'http://localhost:4000/firestore'); }); group('some group', () { test('some test', () async { print('yo'); }); }); }
When I run it, I get the following error:
ERROR: MissingPluginException(No implementation found for method Firestore#settings on channel plugins.flutter.io/cloud_firestore) package:flutter/src/services/platform_channel.dart 154:7 MethodChannel._invokeMethod
Any suggestions on how to address this?
