how_to_test_apps.rs

//! Demonstrates simple integration testing of Bevy applications.
//!
//! By substituting [`DefaultPlugins`] with [`MinimalPlugins`], Bevy can run completely headless.
//!
//! The list of minimal plugins does not include things like window or input handling. The downside
//! of this is that resources or entities associated with those systems (for example:
//! `ButtonInput::<KeyCode>`) need to be manually added, either directly or via e.g.
//! [`InputPlugin`]. The upside, however, is that the test has complete control over these
//! resources, meaning we can fake user input, fake the window being moved around, and more.
