FragmentScenario

class FragmentScenario<F : Fragment!>

kotlin.Any
↳	androidx.fragment.app.testing.FragmentScenario

FragmentScenario provides API to start and drive a Fragment's lifecycle state for testing. It works with arbitrary fragments and works consistently across different versions of the Android framework.

FragmentScenario only supports androidx.fragment.app.Fragment. If you are using a deprecated fragment class such as android.support.v4.app.Fragment or android.app.Fragment, please update your code to androidx.fragment.app.Fragment.

If your testing Fragment has a dependency to specific theme such as Theme.AppCompat, use the theme ID parameter in launch method.

Public methods

launch

@NonNull static fun <F : Fragment!> launch(@NonNull fragmentClass: Class<F>): FragmentScenario<F>

Launches a Fragment hosted by an empty FragmentActivity and waits for it to reach the resumed state.

Parameters
fragmentClass	Class<F>: a fragment class to instantiate

launch

@NonNull static fun <F : Fragment!> launch(@NonNull fragmentClass: Class<F>, @Nullable fragmentArgs: Bundle?): FragmentScenario<F>

Launches a Fragment with given arguments hosted by an empty FragmentActivity and waits for it to reach the resumed state.

This method cannot be called from the main thread.

Parameters
fragmentClass	Class<F>: a fragment class to instantiate
fragmentArgs	Class<F>: a bundle to passed into fragment

launch

@NonNull static fun <F : Fragment!> launch(@NonNull fragmentClass: Class<F>, @Nullable fragmentArgs: Bundle?, @Nullable factory: FragmentFactory?): FragmentScenario<F>

Launches a Fragment with given arguments hosted by an empty FragmentActivity using the given FragmentFactory and waits for it to reach the resumed state.

This method cannot be called from the main thread.

Parameters
fragmentClass	Class<F>: a fragment class to instantiate
fragmentArgs	Class<F>: a bundle to passed into fragment
factory	Class<F>: a fragment factory to use or null to use default factory

launch

@NonNull static fun <F : Fragment!> launch(@NonNull fragmentClass: Class<F>, @Nullable fragmentArgs: Bundle?, @StyleRes themeResId: Int, @Nullable factory: FragmentFactory?): FragmentScenario<F>

Launches a Fragment with given arguments hosted by an empty FragmentActivity themed by themeResId, using the given FragmentFactory and waits for it to reach the resumed state.

This method cannot be called from the main thread.

Parameters
fragmentClass	Class<F>: a fragment class to instantiate
fragmentArgs	Class<F>: a bundle to passed into fragment
themeResId	Class<F>: a style resource id to be set to the host activity's theme
factory	Class<F>: a fragment factory to use or null to use default factory

launchInContainer

@NonNull static fun <F : Fragment!> launchInContainer(@NonNull fragmentClass: Class<F>): FragmentScenario<F>

Launches a Fragment in the Activity's root view container android.R.id.content, hosted by an empty FragmentActivity and waits for it to reach the resumed state.

This method cannot be called from the main thread.

Parameters
fragmentClass	Class<F>: a fragment class to instantiate

launchInContainer

@NonNull static fun <F : Fragment!> launchInContainer(@NonNull fragmentClass: Class<F>, @Nullable fragmentArgs: Bundle?): FragmentScenario<F>

Launches a Fragment in the Activity's root view container android.R.id.content, with given arguments hosted by an empty FragmentActivity and waits for it to reach the resumed state.

This method cannot be called from the main thread.

Parameters
fragmentClass	Class<F>: a fragment class to instantiate
fragmentArgs	Class<F>: a bundle to passed into fragment

launchInContainer

@NonNull static fun <F : Fragment!> launchInContainer(@NonNull fragmentClass: Class<F>, @Nullable fragmentArgs: Bundle?, @Nullable factory: FragmentFactory?): FragmentScenario<F>

Launches a Fragment in the Activity's root view container android.R.id.content, with given arguments hosted by an empty FragmentActivity using the given FragmentFactory and waits for it to reach the resumed state.

This method cannot be called from the main thread.

Parameters
fragmentClass	Class<F>: a fragment class to instantiate
fragmentArgs	Class<F>: a bundle to passed into fragment
factory	Class<F>: a fragment factory to use or null to use default factory

launchInContainer

@NonNull static fun <F : Fragment!> launchInContainer(@NonNull fragmentClass: Class<F>, @Nullable fragmentArgs: Bundle?, @StyleRes themeResId: Int, @Nullable factory: FragmentFactory?): FragmentScenario<F>

Launches a Fragment in the Activity's root view container android.R.id.content, with given arguments hosted by an empty FragmentActivity themed by themeResId, using the given FragmentFactory and waits for it to reach the resumed state.

This method cannot be called from the main thread.

Parameters
fragmentClass	Class<F>: a fragment class to instantiate
fragmentArgs	Class<F>: a bundle to passed into fragment
themeResId	Class<F>: a style resource id to be set to the host activity's theme
factory	Class<F>: a fragment factory to use or null to use default factory

moveToState

@NonNull fun moveToState(@NonNull newState: Lifecycle.State): FragmentScenario<F>

Moves Fragment state to a new state.

If a new state and current state are the same, this method does nothing. It accepts CREATED, STARTED, RESUMED, and DESTROYED. DESTROYED is a terminal state. You cannot move to any other state after the Fragment reaches that state.

This method cannot be called from the main thread.

Note: Moving state to STARTED is not supported on Android API level 23 and lower. UnsupportedOperationException will be thrown.

onFragment

@NonNull fun onFragment(@NonNull action: FragmentScenario.FragmentAction<F>): FragmentScenario<F>

Runs a given action on the current Activity's main thread.

Note that you should never keep Fragment reference passed into your action because it can be recreated at anytime during state transitions.

Throwing an exception from action makes the host Activity crash. You can inspect the exception in logcat outputs.

This method cannot be called from the main thread.

recreate

@NonNull fun recreate(): FragmentScenario<F>

Recreates the host Activity.

After this method call, it is ensured that the Fragment state goes back to the same state as its previous state.

This method cannot be called from the main thread.
