Flutter coverage stopped working again …

Earlier this year, I wrote how disabling code coverage could speed up your test suite up to 10x. Fortunately, the flutter team fixes it before we had to disable it (our CI was taking to 26 minutes to run all the 700 tests, after the fix it when to 4 minutes).

However, flutter 1.5.3 broke our tests. We have been using 1.5.0 hoping they fixed soon enough so we could update our flutter SDK. Although we had to upgrade to flutter 1.8 to publish our app using Android app bundle requirements, Since then, we have disabled our code coverage.

Now let’s hope flutter team fix it soon. By the time we are counting with code reviewers to check if someone forgot to test an essential piece of code.
