Local generation
iOS
Emerge offers a Swift package to generate snapshots locally for your own debugging. For example, this can be helpful if you have a preview that crashes while rendering.
To get started:
- Install the Swift Package in your project
- Add a UI test target with
SnapshottingTests
as a dependency. - Create your test that inherits from
SnapshottingTests.PreviewTest
See the repo for full documentation.
Android
Emerge offers a gradle task to generate snapshots locally for debugging or saving locally. You'll need a running emulator or connected device to run the local snapshot generation. Make sure the ANDROID_HOME
variable is set on your PATH
to the Android SDK location on your system, as this task relies on ADB to execute.
./gradlew :app:emergeLocalSnapshotsDebug
Additionally, you can specify where to save the snapshots to using the snapshots
extension of the Emerge Gradle plugin. By default, snapshots are saved to the /build/emergetools/snapshots/outputs
directory.
emerge {
..
snapshots {
snapshotsStorageDirectory.set("/app/src/main/snapshots") // Storage of locally generated snapshots
}
}
