Description
Since the forked repository was mostly produced with AI tools, we need to establish a robust unit testing architecture within the src/test directory. Unlike instrumentation tests (which require an emulator), these tests will target our business logic, ViewModels, and UseCases to provide rapid feedback during development.

Technical Focus
Location: app/src/test/...

Target: Core logic, Utility classes, ViewModels, and Repository layers.

Constraints: No Android dependencies (use Mocking for Context, Looper, etc.).

Implementation Checklist

  1. Dependency Configuration
  • Add JUnit 5 or JUnit 4 to build.gradle.
  • Add MockK (preferred for Kotlin) or Mockito for dependency mocking.
  • Add Coroutines Test library for handling runTest and Dispatchers.
  • Add Turbine (if using Kotlin Flows).
  1. Architecture Setup
  • Create a BaseTest class if common setup (like InstantTaskExecutorRule) is needed.

  • Define a testing strategy for Dependency Injection (e.g., passing mocks to constructors).

  1. Priority Test Areas
  • ViewModels: Test StateFlow updates and event handling.
  • UseCases/Interactors: Verify business rules and data flow.
  • Mappers: Ensure API entities are correctly converted to Domain models.
  • Utils: Validate helper functions and extension methods.

Testing Workflow
By keeping these tests in the test folder, we ensure the following execution flow:

  1. Developer writes code + tests.
  2. Gradle executes ./gradlew test.
  3. JVM runs tests without needing an APK or Emulator.
  4. Result: Near-instant validation of logic.
