Split from #66776 Even if pub does not change the packge_config contents, it will still update a timestamp in one of the fields. This causes unnecessary rebuilds. To fix this, generate an additional file when running pub get that only contains the relevant fields and then update the KernelSnapshot rule to depend on it only.
Integration tests
These tests are not hermetic, and use the actual Flutter SDK. While
they don't require actual devices, they run flutter_tester
to test
Dart VM and Flutter integration.
Use this command to run (from the flutter_tools
directory):
../../bin/cache/dart-sdk/bin/pub run test test/integration.shard
These tests are expensive to run and do not give meaningful coverage information for the flutter tool (since they are black-box tests that run the tool as a subprocess, rather than being unit tests). For this reason, they are in a separate shard when running on continuous integration and are not run when calculating coverage.
