Reasoning
The config flow is the first interaction a user has with your integration. It is important to ensure that the config flow is working as expected and that the user can set up the integration without any issues or (config flow related) errors.
This means that we want to have 100% test coverage for the config flow. In those tests, we require verification that the flow is able to recover from an error to confirm that the user is able to finish the flow even if something goes wrong.
Since we want the user to have a smooth experience using other integration flows, this rule also applies to the reconfigure, reauthentication, and options flows.
The extra added benefit of having tests for an integration is that it introduces the developer to testing, making it easier to write tests for other parts of the integration.
:::warning Even though the code used to check the uniqueness of a config entry is most likely touched by the happy flow tests, make sure to also test that the flow doesn't allow adding more than one unique configuration entry to reach complete coverage. :::
Example implementation
We need to test the following scenarios for each way the config flow can be initiated, either by the user, by discovery, or by an import flow.
The example below shows a basic happy flow initiated by the user.
test_config_flow.py:
async def test_full_flow(
hass: HomeAssistant,
mock_my_client: AsyncMock,
mock_setup_entry: AsyncMock,
) -> None:
"""Test full flow."""
result = await hass.config_entries.flow.async_init(
DOMAIN,
context={"source": SOURCE_USER},
)
assert result["type"] is FlowResultType.FORM
assert result["step_id"] == "user"
result = await hass.config_entries.flow.async_configure(
result["flow_id"],
{CONF_HOST: "10.0.0.131"},
)
assert result["type"] is FlowResultType.CREATE_ENTRY
assert result["title"] == "My integration"
assert result["data"] == {
CONF_HOST: "10.0.0.131",
}
