Barista Compose

[alorma]

Discussion around how Barista can contribute to jetpack compose testing.

First of all, I've created a branch compose_base with a basic setup of compose in a separate module so we can start exploring how can we build barista around compose

[alorma]

First approach: #439

Nice work @alorma! I think it's a good start. I will be a little bit busy for this and next week but will be able to work on this afterwards 😄

@alorma Will barista-compose be available in a separated artifactory?

[alorma]

Yes, it should be available now to download

[alorma]

Make this fits on barista compose?

 composeTestRule.setContent {
     CompositionLocalProvider(LocalContext provides LocalContext.current.createConfigurationContext(Configuration().apply {
         setLocales(LocaleList(Locale.ENGLISH))
     })) {
         //YourUi
     }
 }

It avoids having a custom activity or relying on some weird resources modifications

Hello there. I've encountered this issue when trying to use @Repeat/@AllowFlaky with AndroidComposeTestRule. Someone in comments proposed a workaround, but I'm not sure how it's supposed to look with barista FlakyRule. Currently using RuleChain like one in README.md

[Sloy]

I guess it's something similar. Either play around with order like in the issue, or use a RuleChain to wrap the compose rule inside the flaky rule.

I haven't personally used ComposeRule, so this is just speculation.

Are there plans to adapt @RetryRule for Jetpack Compose ? For now retry attempt will thrown java.lang.IllegalStateException: Only a single call to runTest can be performed during one test. or that not Barista problem ?
