FAQPage Schema
How do I write unit tests for async and await code in Swift?

Unit testing async Swift code requires strategies for verifying async/await, actors, and Combine. This Skill provides guidelines to correctly isolate and test concurrency patterns, ensuring your asynchronous logic is robust and maintainable.

What is the best way to structure test architecture for iOS applications?

Test architecture for iOS apps should focus on dependency injection, testability, and target separation. This Skill provides rules across 8 categories to ensure your tests are isolated, maintainable, and structured for principal engineer level development.

How do I perform UI testing and snapshot testing in SwiftUI?

UI testing and snapshot testing in SwiftUI rely on XCUITest, page objects, and visual regression best practices. This Skill covers how to implement these techniques to keep your UI tests stable, fast, and reliable.

Can I use these testing guidelines to improve CI reliability for Swift projects?

Yes, these iOS testing guidelines cover CI reliability to ensure your Swift tests run consistently. By following the 44 rules across 8 categories, you can reduce flaky tests and maintain robust continuous integration pipelines.

Why does my iOS test fail when using test doubles for dependencies?

iOS test doubles can fail if test architecture lacks proper dependency injection and testability. This Skill provides rules for implementing test doubles correctly, ensuring your unit tests are properly isolated and verify expected behavior.
