Not working within widget tests?

[muzzah]

Hi

Running a widget test on MacOS seems to break the library. Is this library supported in a widget test run/environment?
The execution seems to just stop at time when setting data into the local storage

I have migrated away from this library as it doesnt seem to work in widget tests.
Now using https://pub.dev/packages/shared_preferences instead

For others, this can be resolved by copying the mock test setup used by the path_provider dependency: https://github.com/flutter/packages/blob/main/packages/path_provider/path_provider/test/path_provider_test.dart

Eg:

Add 'path_provider', 'path_provider_platform_interface' and 'plugin_platform_interface' as dev_dependences.

void main() {
  TestWidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  group('Config', () {
    setUp(() async {
      // crate temp folder
      PathProviderPlatform.instance = FakePathProviderPlatform();
    });
...

Where FakePathProviderPlatform is:

String kTemporaryPath = Directory.systemTemp.path;
String kApplicationSupportPath = kTemporaryPath;
String kDownloadsPath = kTemporaryPath;
String kLibraryPath = kTemporaryPath;
String kApplicationDocumentsPath = kTemporaryPath;
String kExternalCachePath = kTemporaryPath;
String kExternalStoragePath = kTemporaryPath;

class FakePathProviderPlatform extends Fake
    with MockPlatformInterfaceMixin
    implements PathProviderPlatform {
  @override
  Future<String?> getTemporaryPath() async {
    return kTemporaryPath;
  }

  @override
  Future<String?> getApplicationSupportPath() async {
    return kApplicationSupportPath;
  }

  @override
  Future<String?> getLibraryPath() async {
    return kLibraryPath;
  }

  @override
  Future<String?> getApplicationDocumentsPath() async {
    return kApplicationDocumentsPath;
  }

  @override
  Future<String?> getExternalStoragePath() async {
    return kExternalStoragePath;
  }

  @override
  Future<List<String>?> getExternalCachePaths() async {
    return <String>[kExternalCachePath];
  }

  @override
  Future<List<String>?> getExternalStoragePaths({
    StorageDirectory? type,
  }) async {
    return <String>[kExternalStoragePath];
  }

  @override
  Future<String?> getDownloadsPath() async {
    return kDownloadsPath;
  }
}
