how to properly use tap with ignore pointer

[vasilich6107]

Hi @passsy

I'm testing the implementation when I have the button wrapped in ignore pointer and I'm intentionally want to be able to tap on the button and verify that the tap callback was not called. So when using tap, there is an ignoring point there. So my question is how to properly use the tap to be able to test on the widgets.

await act.tap(spot<FilledButton>());
// fails with exception here.
verify(() => mockOnPressed()).called(0);

Is there any tap method which is less overloaded by internal checks? Or probably makes sense to disable all those checks or having some parameters which can turn on and off because currently depending on the widget tree I have to tap on the button in the different way, depending on if there is or there is no ignore pointer in the widget tree.

What about the absorb pointer widget in this case?

Does it make sense to create in this case custom exception classes to clearly identify that their exception which we are expecting?

For example, replace this one.

throw TestFailure(
      "Widget '${snapshot.discoveredWidget!.toStringShort()}' is wrapped in IgnorePointer and doesn't receive pointer events.\n"
      "The IgnorePointer is located at $location",
    );

with

throw WrappedIgnorePointer()
