## Testing Fundamentals

Structure your test suites using the standard Dart testing paradigms. Use `package:test` for Dart projects and `flutter_test` for Flutter projects.

- **Unit Tests:** Verify individual functions, methods, or classes.
- **Component/Widget Tests:** Verify component behavior, layout, and interaction using mock objects (`package:mockito`).
- **Integration Tests:** Verify entire app flows on simulated or real devices.
