• MVP
  • The MVP Pattern is a user interface software architecture pattern that reduces the behavior of the UI components, in this case those are the views, widgets, fragments, and activities. The MVP Pattern reduces the UI components behavior to a bare minimum by using a presenter. A presenter is simply a controller like class that handles the presentation logic and updates the view accordingly. Using this pattern, you can pull your UI logic out of the Android components and place it into your presenters, making it much easier to test and much faster to test. It is faster to test since we no longer need the Android framework to test our inputs and outputs. The Android context is gone. We don't need to fire up an Android emulator or an Android device. We can just rely solely on the JVM which is very fast.
  • A repository is essentially a location where data may be stored. This can be stored in memory, on disk, in a file, in a database, or in the cloud. The repository pattern helps abstract away the implementations so you only have to worry about obtaining the data from the repository, not about the implementation details and how it's stored.

    • Red, Green, Refactor
    • Make test fail, then make test pass, then refactor any code that may need to be cleaned up at that point.
  • Steps to writing a test
    • Set up the conditions required for the test
    • Then perform one or more actions
    • Afterwards, verify that the state you are expecting is actually achieved
  • Mocks and Stubs
    • Mocks provide the ability to test for interactions
    • Stubs provide data

Camera App

    public int getSpanSize(int position){
      if(position % 4 == 0){
        return 3;
      } else {
        return 1;
      }
    }
