Testing Dart

This feature is supported in the Professional edition only.

PyCharm supports running and debugging Dart tests that are written using the dart test package. You can run tests on any target platform, debugging is supported only for VM tests.

You can run and debug single tests, test groups, as well as tests from entire files and folders. PyCharm creates a run/debug configuration with the default settings and a launches the tests. You can later save this configuration for further re-use.

To run or debug a group
