After using the “alchemist” library, I noticed that our test execution on CI takes more time, and sometimes it hangs on the tearDownAll function.
My use case of execution tests is a bit different. I run all the tests in one isolate, mainly to speed things up on CI. The testMain during test execution is called only once, along with the testExecutable at flutter_test_config.
Let’s say I have 100 golden tests. For each of them, the loadFonts function is called before the test, which takes time to execute. It is called 100 times. But should only once.
I would like to call this function only once before my tests execution, at flutter_test_config.
I forked the library, removed the loadFonts function call on every test execution, and moved it to the flutter_test_config. The problem was resolved.
Steps to reproduce
Create a test file with ten goldens tests.
Execute the tests.
Actual behavior: The loadFonts function is called ten times.
Is there an existing issue for this?
Version
