Issue running a default flutter project (counter) on the latest Flutter SDK version

[hermankravchenko-ama]

Hello,

We have tried following Flutter SDK versions:

1. 3.13.9
2. 3.16.9
3. 3.7.12

Default counter example. We compile build for Android (APK) with --debug or --profile.

Use the same code as in the node JS example and the issue is the following

"ext.flutter.driver" is not found in "extensionRPCs" ["ext.ui.window.scheduleFrame","ext.ui.window.reinitializeShader","ext.ui.window.impellerEnabled","ext.dart.io.getH

Any ideas if this plugin/driver is still supported on newer version of Flutter SDK? Is this something that will be supported longterm?

Thanks

It usually means the Flutter app does not contain ext.flutter.driver package.

In our next release, we will be planning to extend the deprecation policy to cover the flutter_driver package in addition to already supported packages, flutter and flutter_test.

So, I guess they no longer support the flutter_driver, which is used by this driver to communicate with Flutter. <- this was wrong. Still flutter team has the flutter_driver. But for the error message means the package is not in your app under test right now.

Hello, I think it is used in a "new way" for flutter web integration testing only Any thoughts if a migration like this is possible/feasible ? Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/AAb9ysg>

If you meant the integration_test package transition as this driver, then I have no good idea since I don't have much personal time to spend on this project. I guess it can but the behavior may not be the same with current behavior.

We do have flutter driver as a dependency and initiated in the main. The commands that we used to build the APK is

flutter build apk --debug and flutter build apk --profile

Any thoughts @KazuCocoa

[KazuCocoa]

No idea. Perhaps we need to take a look at Flutter repository. The error itself was ext.flutter.driver module was not loaded in the test package (usually), so module loading or around in Flutter team's update could affect.

@KazuCocoa Any updates here?

Just curious

[KazuCocoa]

No. I don't work on this
