Patrol custom finders

Flutter's finders are powerful, but not very intuitive to use.

We took them and made something awesome.

Thanks to Patrol's custom finders, you'll take your tests from this:

testWidgets('signs up', (WidgetTester tester) async {
  await tester.pumpWidget(AwesomeApp());
  await tester.pumpAndSettle();

  await tester.enterText(
    find.byKey(Key('emailTextField')),
    '[e-mail]',
  );
  await tester.pumpAndSettle();

  await tester.enterText(
    find.byKey(Key('nameTextField')),
    'Charlie',
  );
  await tester.pumpAndSettle();

  await tester.enterText(
    find.byKey(Key('passwordTextField')),
    'ny4ncat',
  );
  await tester.pumpAndSettle();

  await tester.tap(find.byKey(Key('termsCheckbox')));
  await tester.pumpAndSettle();

  await tester.tap(find.byKey(Key('signUpButton')));
  await tester.pumpAndSettle();

  expect(find.text('Welcome, Charlie!'), findsOneWidget);
});

to this:

patrolTest('signs up', (PatrolTester $) async {
  await $.pumpWidgetAndSettle(AwesomeApp());

  await $(#emailTextField).enterText('[e-mail]');
  await $(#nameTextField).enterText('Charlie');
  await $(#passwordTextField).enterText('ny4ncat');
  await $(#termsCheckbox).tap();
  await $(#signUpButton).tap();
  
  await $('Welcome, Charlie!').waitUntilVisible();
});
