This app was created using
flutter create --with-driver-test --org com.mycompany.myflutterapp default_flutter_app
This created a testable flutter app that is runnable and testable. In practice, a separate deliverable flutter app and a testable flutter app is required. So the app was separated into a testable and a non-testable flutter app by this commit.
To run the app as a non-testable app, make sure you have a device attached and run:
flutter run
or
flutter --verbose run
To test the testable app, make sure you have a device attached and run:
flutter driver test_driver/main.dart
or
flutter --verbose driver test_driver/main.dart
Note: for simplicity, testing in this context refers only to integration testing. It is still possible to run unit and widget tests on the 'non-testable' app.
If an iOS device is attached, both flutter calls above create a .app file which is uploaded by flutter tooling to the device. The .app is signed using the developer certificate from the developer's Apple Developer Account. If the developer certificate is not present, it can be downloaded from Xcode by following the 'Automatic Signing' procedure.
Delivering the app to the app store or to another iOS device generally requires creating a .ipa and is beyond the scope of this document.
