on YouTube ↗36m

" summary

Describes concrete recipes: use the Compose testing library with test tag instead of view IDs, set up either createAndroidComposeRule for activity flows or createComposeRule for isolated UI unit tests, find nodes with onNode/onNodeWithTag, drive UI with performTextInput and performClick, and verify with assertions like assertTextEquals and isEnabled. Shows a button-click example and a hybrid flow where Espresso clicks an XML view then Compose assertions confirm the migrated screen state.
