VisibleForTesting

Kotlin |Java

class VisibleForTesting

androidx.annotation.VisibleForTesting

Denotes that the class, method or field has its visibility relaxed, so that it is more widely visible than otherwise necessary to make code testable.

You can optionally specify what the visibility should have been if not for testing; this allows tools to catch unintended access from within production code.

Example:

<code>
   @VisibleForTesting(otherwise = VisibleForTesting.PROTECTED)
   public String printDiagnostics() { ... }
  </code>

If not specified, the intended visibility is assumed to be private.

Summary

Constants
static Int	`NONE` The annotated element should never be called from production code, only from tests.
static Int	`PACKAGE_PRIVATE` The annotated element would have "package private" visibility
static Int	`PRIVATE` The annotated element would have "private" visibility
static Int	`PROTECTED` The annotated element would have "protected" visibility

Public constructors
`<init>(otherwise: Int)` Denotes that the class, method or field has its visibility relaxed, so that it is more widely visible than otherwise necessary to make code testable.

Properties
Int	`otherwise` The visibility the annotated element would have if it did not need to be made visible for testing.
