Love Dogs – A Flutter Dating App for Dogs

I took inspiration from this dribble project: https://dribbble.com/shots/19126306-Dating-App-for-Dogs

Welcome to ‘Love Dogs’, a fun and interactive Flutter application that brings the world of dating apps to our furry friends. This application allows you to like or dislike random dogs, filter by breeds, and see your liked dogs.

E2E

It’s using fluttium for end to end testing

https://fluttium.dev/docs/getting-started

install fluttium:

flutter pub global activate fluttium_cli

run it:

fluttium test test/e2e/random_match_flow.yaml

results:

  Random Match like and favorites.

  ✅  Expect visible "Love Dogs"
  ✅  Press on "Like"
  ✅  Press on "Favorites"
  ✅  Expect visible "Favorite_0"
  ✅  Press on "RandomMatch"
  ✅  Press on "Like"
  ✅  Press on "Favorites"
  ✅  Expect visible "Favorite_1"

Unit and UI

run it:

flutter test

UI test uses golden screenshots to test the UI. the results are stored in ‘test/ui/goldens’.
Unit test is used to test the business logic. in this case the state management.
