nalexn/ViewInspector

ViewInspector is a Swift library designed for inspecting and testing SwiftUI views, modifiers, and gestures. It enables developers to verify view attributes, extract child views, and interact with components like AsyncImage and Charts within test environments. The system supports environment injection, async inspection, and comprehensive coverage across standard SwiftUI elements and platform-specific targets.

10 changes.

The project refactored its internal architecture to support environment injection, async inspection, and Swift 6 compatibility while significantly expanding coverage for a wide range of SwiftUI views and modifiers. This period also involved raising minimum platform requirements to iOS 15 and modernizing the testing infrastructure by removing legacy Linux runners and configuring Xcode schemes for code coverage.

4 changes.

The project added a watchOS application target to enable view hosting tests on that platform. Significant effort was also directed toward expanding test coverage for SwiftUI gesture inspection, including comprehensive suites for composed gestures and hit-testing modifiers.

This update significantly expands the ViewInspector library's coverage of SwiftUI views. It introduces new inspection capabilities for a wide range of standard and new SwiftUI components, including ActionSheet, AngularGradient, AsyncImage, Canvas, Chart, Color, ColorPicker, ConfirmationDialog, ContentUnavailableView, ControlGroup, and many others. Users can now inspect attributes, extract child views, and interact with these components in their tests, such as checking Color values, accessing AsyncImage phases, or inspecting Canvas rasterization options.

A new watchOS application target has been added to the project to support view hosting tests. This includes the main app entry point, a testable view modifier that injects views for inspection, and the associated Xcode project configuration and assets.

The ViewInspector Xcode project has been configured with build targets for the ViewInspector framework and its associated unit tests. This includes the necessary build phases to link against SwiftUI and XCTest frameworks, ensuring the library and its test suite can be compiled and run within the Xcode IDE.

The modifier inspection logic in Sources/ViewInspector/Modifiers has been reorganized into separate, dedicated files (such as AccessibilityModifiers, AnimationModifiers, EnvironmentModifiers, and GestureModifiers) to improve maintainability and test coverage. This structural change groups related inspection methods by category, ensuring that specific modifiers like accessibility traits, environment values, and gesture callbacks are handled in isolated modules without altering the public inspection API.

The project now includes a standard Xcode workspace structure, adding the \contents.xcworkspacedata\ file to define the workspace root and the \IDEWorkspaceChecks.plist\ to suppress the 32-bit warning in Xcode. This allows developers to open the project as a workspace, which is useful for managing multiple targets or integrating with other projects.

The ViewInspector library has been refactored to introduce a new internal architecture for view inspection. This change adds support for injecting \@EnvironmentObject\ and \@Environment\ values into views during inspection, allowing tests to verify behavior dependent on environment data. It also introduces first-class async inspection functions and \MainActor\ isolation for Swift 6 compatibility. Additionally, the library now supports inspecting custom views via the \CustomInspectable\ protocol and provides new APIs for extracting content from \UIViewRepresentable\ and \UIViewControllerRepresentable\ wrappers.

Added Xcode scheme with test coverage enabled; Added test coverage for gesture and hit-testing modifiers; Expanded SwiftUI view inspection test coverage; Expanded gesture inspection test coverage; Expanded test coverage for SwiftUI view modifiers; Expanded test coverage for ViewInspector core inspection and search capabilities; Removal of LinuxMain.swift test runner.

The ViewInspector library now requires Swift 5.9 and raises its minimum supported operating system versions to iOS 15, macOS 12, tvOS 15, watchOS 9, and visionOS 1. This change ensures compatibility with the latest Xcode toolchain and Apple platforms, while also enabling localizable string support and configuring test resources for the Swift Package Manager.
