SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps developers write and review effective tests for shared Kotlin Multiplatform codebases, ensuring code quality and reliability.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Test Setup: Guides to set up testing environments for domain, data, and presentation layers.
  • Testing Strategies: Implements typical test patterns using kotlin.test, Turbine, and kotlinx-coroutines-test.
  • Use Case: A developer writes a ViewModel and verifies its state transitions using Turbine, or creates a mock repository for data layer testing.

Quick Start

Use the kmp-testing skill to validate a ViewModel’s state emissions after an event.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write unit tests for Kotlin Multiplatform shared code?

To write unit tests for Kotlin Multiplatform shared code, you can apply structured testing strategies covering domain, data, and presentation layers using kotlin.test for assertions.

What's the best way to test Kotlin Multiplatform ViewModel state transitions?

Testing Kotlin Multiplatform ViewModel state transitions is best handled using Turbine to verify flow emissions and kotlinx-coroutines-test for managing coroutine execution.

Can I use MockK for commonTest in Kotlin Multiplatform projects?

Using MockK for commonTest in Kotlin Multiplatform projects is discouraged; the kmp-testing approach avoids MockK in commonTest to ensure better cross-platform compatibility.

How do I set up a testing environment for Kotlin Multiplatform data and presentation layers?

Setting up a testing environment for Kotlin Multiplatform data and presentation layers involves configuring kotlin.test alongside Turbine to validate state and repository interactions.

Does kotlinx-coroutines-test work well with Kotlin Multiplatform testing?

kotlinx-coroutines-test works seamlessly with Kotlin Multiplatform testing to control virtual time and manage coroutine execution in shared presentation layer tests.
