Moonshot E2E Flutter Testing

The Problem

Flutter testing is stuck in the stone age - developers write brittle
unit tests that break on every UI change, and visual bugs slip
through because there's no way to test real user workflows.

Our Solution

Visual Workflow Recording - Capture real user interactions with your
Flutter widgets, then automatically generate tests that replay
those exact workflows and verify the visual output matches
expectations.

How It Works

  1. Record: Use TestStage to interact with your widgets naturally -
    tap buttons, change values, see results
  2. Capture: System automatically records all state changes, user
    actions, and drawing operations
  3. Replay: Generated tests replay your exact workflow and compare
    visual output using golden files
  4. Detect: Catches visual regressions, cross-platform
    inconsistencies, and interaction bugs

The Magic

Instead of writing hundreds of lines of test code, you just use your
widget normally and get comprehensive E2E tests automatically. It's
like having a screen recorder for your Flutter widgets that creates
regression tests.

Impact

  • 10x faster test creation (record vs code)
  • Visual regression detection catches what unit tests miss
  • Cross-platform consistency ensures identical behavior everywhere
  • Real user workflows instead of artificial test scenarios

Bottom line: Transform Flutter testing from tedious code-writing to
natural widget interaction, while catching the visual bugs that
matter to users.
