This class starts a Shiny app in a new R session, along with chromote's headless browser that can be used to simulate user actions. This provides a full simulation of a Shiny app so that you can test user interactions with a live app.
Methods described below are ordered by perceived popularity. Expect methods are grouped next to their corresponding get methods.
Vignettes
Please see Testing in depth for more details about the different expectation methods.
Please see Robust testing for more details about the cost / benefits for each expectation method.
Test mode
To have your AppDriver retrieve values from your Shiny app, be sure to
set shiny::runApp(test.mode = TRUE) when running your Shiny app.
If you are deploying your Shiny app where you do not have control over
the call to shiny::runApp(), you can set options(shiny.testmode = TRUE) in
a .Rprofile file within your Shiny app directory.
Start-up failure
If the app throws an error during initialization, the AppDriver will
be stored in rlang::last_error()$app. This allows for the "failure
to initialize" to be signaled while also allowing for the app to be
retrieved after any initialization error has been thrown.
Exporting reactive values
Reactive values from within your Shiny application can be exported using the
method:
shiny::exportTestValues().
This underutilized method exposes internal values of your app
without needing to create a corresponding input value or output value.
For example:
library(shiny)
shiny_app <- shinyApp(
fluidPage(
h1("Pythagorean theorem"),
numericInput("A", "A", 3),
numericInput("B", "B", 4),
verbatimTextOutput("C"),
),
function(input, output) {
a_squared <- reactive({ req(input$A); input$A * input$A })
b_squared <- reactive({ req(input$B); input$B * input$B })
c_squared <- reactive({ a_squared() + b_squared() })
c_value <- reactive({ sqrt(c_squared()) })
output$C <- renderText({ c_value() })
exportTestValues(
a_squared = { a_squared() },
b_squared = { b_squared() },
c_squared = { c_squared() }
)
}
)
app <- AppDriver$new(shiny_app)
init_vals <- app$get_values()
str(init_vals)
#> List of 3
#> $ input :List of 2
#> ..$ A: int 3
#> ..$ B: int 4
#> $ output:List of 1
#> ..$ C: chr "5"
#> $ export:List of 3
#> ..$ a_squared: int 9
#> ..$ b_squared: int 16
#> ..$ c_squared: int 25These exported test values are only exposed when shiny::runApp(test.mode = TRUE)
is set. shinytest2 sets this variable when running Shiny based app or
document.
testthat wrappers
The two main expectation methods: $expect_values() and $expect_screenshot()
eventually wrap testthat::expect_snapshot_file().
Their underlying logic is similar to:
skip_on_cran() # AppDriver
## Expect values
tmpfile <- tempfile(fileext = ".json")
jsonlite::write_json(app$get_values(), tmpfile)
expect_snapshot_file(
tmpfile,
variant = app$get_variant(),
compare = testthat::compare_file_text
)
## Expect screenshot
tmpfile <- tempfile(fileext = ".png")
app$get_screenshot(tmpfile)
expect_snapshot_file(
tmpfile,
variant = app$get_variant(),
compare = testthat::compare_file_binary
)To update the snapshot values, you will need to run a variation of
testthat::snapshot_review().
Methods
Method new()
Initialize an AppDriver object
Usage
AppDriver$new(
app_dir = testthat::test_path("../../"),
...,
name = NULL,
variant = missing_arg(),
seed = NULL,
load_timeout = missing_arg(),
timeout = missing_arg(),
wait = TRUE,
screenshot_args = missing_arg(),
expect_values_screenshot_args = TRUE,
check_names = TRUE,
view = missing_arg(),
height = NULL,
width = NULL,
clean_logs = TRUE,
shiny_args = list(),
render_args = NULL,
options = list()
)Arguments
app_dirThis value can be many different things:
A directory containing your Shiny application or a run-time Shiny R Markdown document.
A URL pointing to your shiny application. (Don't forget to set
testmode = TRUEwhen running your application!)A Shiny application object which inherits from
"shiny.appobj".
By default,
app_diris set totest_path("../../")to work in both interactive and testing usage.If a file path is not provided to
app_dir, snapshots will be saved as if the root of the Shiny application was the current directory....Must be empty. Allows for parameter expansion.
namePrefix value to use when saving testthat snapshot files. Ex:
NAME-001.json. Name must be unique when saving multiple snapshots from within the same testing file. Otherwise, two differentAppDriverobjects will be referencing the same files.variantIf not-
NULL, results will be saved in_snaps/{variant}/{test.md}, sovariantmust be a single string of alphanumeric characters suitable for use as a directory name.You can variants to deal with cases where the snapshot output varies and you want to capture and test the variations. Common use cases include variations for operating system, R version, or version of key dependency. For example usage, see
platform_variant().seedAn optional random seed to use before starting the application. For apps that use R's random number generator, this can make their behavior repeatable.
load_timeoutHow long to wait for the app to load, in ms. This includes the time to start R. Defaults to 15s.
If
load_timeoutis missing, the first numeric value found will be used:R option
options(shinytest2.load_timeout=)System environment variable
SHINYTEST2_LOAD_TIMEOUT15 * 1000(15 seconds)
timeoutDefault number of milliseconds for any
timeoutortimeout_parameter in theAppDriverclass. Defaults to 4s.If
timeoutis missing, the first numeric value found will be used:R option
options(shinytest2.timeout=)System environment variable
SHINYTEST2_TIMEOUT4 * 1000(4 seconds)
waitIf
TRUE,$wait_for_idle(duration = 200, timeout = load_timeout)will be called once the app has connected a new session, blocking until the Shiny app is idle for 200ms.screenshot_argsDefault set of arguments to pass in to
chromote::ChromoteSession's$get_screenshot()method when taking screenshots within$expect_screenshot(). To disable screenshots by default, set toFALSE.expect_values_screenshot_argsThe value for
screenshot_argswhen producing a debug screenshot for$expect_values(). To disable debug screenshots by default, set toFALSE.check_namesCheck if widget names are unique once the application initially loads? If duplicate names are found on initialization, a warning will be displayed.
viewOpens the
chromote::ChromoteSessionin an interactive browser tab before attempting to navigate to the Shiny app.height, widthWindow size to use when opening the
chromote::ChromoteSession. Bothheightandwidthvalues must be non-null values to be used.clean_logsWhether to remove the
stdoutandstderrShiny app logs when theAppDriverobject is garbage collected.shiny_argsA list of options to pass to
shiny::runApp(). Ex:list(port = 8080).render_argsPassed to
rmarkdown::run(render_args=)for interactive.Rmds. Ex:list(quiet = TRUE)optionsA list of
base::options()to set in the Shiny application's child R process. Seeshiny::shinyOptions()for inspiration. Ifshiny.trace = TRUE, then all WebSocket traffic will be captured bychromoteand time-stamped for logging purposes.
Examples
\dontrun{
# Create an AppDriver from the Shiny app in the current directory
app <- AppDriver()
# Create an AppDriver object from a different Shiny app directory
example_app <- system.file("examples/01_hello", package = "shiny")
app <- AppDriver(example_app)
# Expect consistent inital values
app$expect_values()
}
Method view()
View the Shiny application
Calls $view() on the chromote::ChromoteSession object to view your Shiny
application in a Chrome browser.
This method is very helpful for debugging while writing your tests.
Method click()
Click an element
Find a Shiny input/output value or DOM CSS selector and click it using
the DOM method TAG.click().
This method can be used to click input buttons and other elements that need to simulate a click action.
Usage
AppDriver$click(
input = missing_arg(),
output = missing_arg(),
selector = missing_arg(),
...
)Arguments
input, output, selectorA name of an Shiny
input/outputvalue or a DOM CSS selector. Only one of these may be used....If
inputis used, all extra arguments are passed to$set_inputs(!!input := "click", ...). This means that theAppDriverwill wait until an output has been updated within the specifiedtimeout_. When clicking any other content,...must be empty.
Examples
\dontrun{
app_path <- system.file("examples/07_widgets", package = "shiny")
app <- AppDriver$new(app_path)
tmpfile <- write.csv(cars, "cars.csv")
app$upload_file(file1 = tmpfile)
cat(app$get_text("#view"))
app$set_inputs(dataset = "cars", obs = 6)
app$click("update")
cat(app$get_text("#view"))
}
Method set_inputs()
Set input values
Set Shiny inputs by sending the value to the Chrome browser and
programmatically updating the values. Given wait_ = TRUE, the method will
not return until an output value has been updated.
Usage
AppDriver$set_inputs(
...,
wait_ = TRUE,
timeout_ = missing_arg(),
allow_no_input_binding_ = FALSE,
priority_ = c("input", "event")
)Arguments
...Name-value pairs,
component_name_1 = value_1, component_name_2 = value_2etc. Input with namecomponent_name_1will be assigned valuevalue_1.wait_Wait until all reactive updates have completed?
timeout_Amount of time to wait before giving up (milliseconds). Defaults to the resolved
timeoutvalue during theAppDriverinitialization.allow_no_input_binding_When setting the value of an input, allow it to set the value of an input even if that input does not have an input binding. This is useful to replicate behavior like hovering over a plotly plot.
priority_Sets the event priority. For expert use only: see https://shiny.rstudio.com/articles/communicating-with-js.html#values-vs-events for details.
Method upload_file()
Upload a file
Uploads a file to the specified file input.
Arguments
...Name-path pair, e.g.
component_name = file_path. The file located atfile_pathwill be uploaded to file input with namecomponent_name.wait_Wait until all reactive updates have completed?
timeout_Amount of time to wait before giving up (milliseconds). Defaults to the resolved
timeoutvalue during theAppDriverinitialization.
Method expect_values()
Expect input, output, and export values
A JSON snapshot is saved of given the results from the underlying call to $get_values().
Note, values that contain environments or other values that will have trouble serializing may not work well. Instead, these objects should be manually inspected and have their components tested individually.
Please see Robust testing for more details.
Usage
AppDriver$expect_values(
...,
input = missing_arg(),
output = missing_arg(),
export = missing_arg(),
screenshot_args = missing_arg(),
name = NULL,
transform = NULL,
cran = deprecated()
)Arguments
...Must be empty. Allows for parameter expansion.
input, output, exportDepending on which parameters are supplied, different return values can occur: * If
input,output, andexportare all missing, then all values are included in the snapshot. * If at least oneinput,output, orexportis specified, then only the requested values are included in the snapshot.The values supplied to each variable can be: * A character vector of specific names to only include in the snapshot. *
TRUEto request that all values of that type are included in the snapshot. * Anything else (e.g.NULLorFALSE) will result in the parameter being ignored.screenshot_argsThis value is passed along to
$expect_screenshot()where the resulting snapshot expectation is ignored. If missing, the default value will be$new(expect_values_screenshot_args=).The final value can either be:
TRUE: A screenshot of the browser's scrollable area will be taken with no delayFALSE: No screenshot will be takenA named list of arguments. These arguments are passed directly to
chromote::ChromoteSession's$get_screenshot()method. Theselectoranddelaywill default to"html"and0respectively.
nameThe file name to be used for the snapshot. The file extension will be overwritten to
.json. By default, thenamesupplied toappon initialization with a counter will be used (e.g."NAME-001.json").transformOptionally, a function to scrub sensitive or stochastic text from the output. Should take a character vector of lines as input and return a modified character vector as output.
cranDeprecated. With
AppDrivernever testing on CRAN, this parameter no longer has any effect.
Examples
\dontrun{
library(shiny)
shiny_app <- shinyApp(
fluidPage(
h1("Pythagorean theorem"),
numericInput("A", "A", 3),
numericInput("B", "B", 4),
verbatimTextOutput("C"),
),
function(input, output) {
a_squared <- reactive({ req(input$A); input$A * input$A })
b_squared <- reactive({ req(input$B); input$B * input$B })
c_squared <- reactive({ a_squared() + b_squared() })
c_value <- reactive({ sqrt(c_squared()) })
output$C <- renderText({ c_value() })
exportTestValues(
a_squared = { a_squared() },
b_squared = { b_squared() },
c_squared = { c_squared() }
)
}
)
app <- AppDriver$new(shiny_app)
# Snapshot all known values
app$expect_values()
# Snapshot only `export` values
app$expect_values(export = TRUE)
# Snapshot values `"A"` from `input` and `"C"` from `output`
app$expect_values(input = "A", output = "C")
}
Method get_value()
Get a single input, output, or export value
This is a helper function around $get_values() to retrieve a single
input, output, or export value. Only a single input, output, or
export value can be used.
Note, values that contain environments or other values that will have trouble serializing to RDS may not work well.
Usage
AppDriver$get_value(
...,
input = missing_arg(),
output = missing_arg(),
export = missing_arg(),
hash_images = FALSE
)Arguments
...Must be empty. Allows for parameter expansion.
input, output, exportOne of these variable should contain a single string value. If more than one value is specified or no values are specified, an error will be thrown.
hash_imagesIf
TRUE, images will be hashed before being returned. Otherwise, all images will return their full data64 encoded value.
Examples
\dontrun{
app_path <- system.file("examples/04_mpg", package = "shiny")
app <- AppDriver$new(app_path)
# Retrieve a single value
app$get_value(output = "caption")
#> [1] "mpg ~ cyl"
# Equivalent code using `$get_values()`
app$get_values(output = "caption")$output$caption
#> [1] "mpg ~ cyl"
}
Method get_values()
Get input, output, and export values
Retrieves a list of all known input, output, or export values. This
method is a core method when inspecting your Shiny app.

}
Method expect_download()
Expect a downloadable file
Given a shiny::downloadButton()/shiny::downloadLink() output ID, the corresponding
file will be downloaded and saved as a snapshot file.
Usage
AppDriver$expect_download(
output,
...,
compare = NULL,
name = NULL,
transform = NULL,
cran = deprecated()
)Arguments
outputoutputID ofshiny::downloadButton()/shiny::downloadLink()...Must be empty. Allows for parameter expansion.
compareThis value is passed through to
testthat::expect_snapshot_file(). By default it is set toNULLwhich will default totestthat::compare_file_textifnamehas extension.r,.R,.Rmd,.md, or.txt, and otherwise usestestthat::compare_file_binary.nameFile name to save file to (including file name extension). The default,
NULL, generates an ascending sequence of names:001.download,002.download, etc.transformOptionally, a function to scrub sensitive or stochastic text from the output. Should take a character vector of lines as input and return a modified character vector as output.
cranDeprecated. With
AppDrivernever testing on CRAN, this parameter no longer has any effect.
Examples
\dontrun{
app_path <- system.file("examples/10_download", package = "shiny")
app <- AppDriver$new(app_path)
# Save snapshot of rock.csv as 001.download
# Save snapshot value of `rock.csv` to capture default file name
app$expect_download("downloadData", compare = testthat::compare_file_text)
}
Method get_download()
Get downloadable file
Given a shiny::downloadButton()/shiny::downloadLink() output ID, the corresponding
file will be downloaded and saved as a file.
Arguments
outputoutputID ofshiny::downloadButton()/shiny::downloadLink()filenameFile path to save the downloaded file to.
Returns
$get_download() will return the final save location of the file. This
location can change depending on the value of filename and response
headers.
Location logic:
If
filenameis not NULL,filenamewill be returned.If a
content-dispositionfilenameis provided, then a temp file containing thisfilenamewill be returned.Otherwise, a temp file ending in
.downloadwill be returned.
Examples
\dontrun{
app_path <- system.file("examples/10_download", package = "shiny")
app <- AppDriver$new(app_path)
# Get rock.csv as a tempfile
app$get_download("downloadData")
#> [1] "/TEMP/PATH/rock.csv"
# Get rock.csv as a "./myfile.csv"
app$get_download("downloadData", filename = "./myfile.csv")
#> [1] "./myfile.csv"
}
Method expect_text()
Expect snapshot of UI text
$expect_text() will extract the text value of all matching elements via
TAG.textContent and store them in a snapshot file. This method is more
robust to internal package change as only the text values will be
maintained. Note, this method will not retrieve any <input /> value's
text content, e.g. text inputs or text areas, as the input values are not
stored in the live HTML.
When possible, use $expect_text() over $expect_html() to allow
package authors room to alter their HTML structures. The resulting array
of TAG.textContent values found will be stored in a snapshot file.
Please see Robust testing for more details.
Method get_text()
Get UI text
$get_text() will extract the text value of all matching elements via
TAG.textContent. Note, this method will not retrieve any <input />
value's text content, e.g. text inputs or text areas, as the input values
are not stored in the live HTML.
Method expect_html()
Expect snapshot of UI HTML
$expect_html() will extract the full DOM structures of each matching
element and store them in a snapshot file. This method captures internal
DOM structure which may be brittle to changes by external authors or
dependencies.
Note, this method will not retrieve any <input /> value's
text content, e.g. text inputs or text areas, as the input values are not
stored in the live HTML.
When possible, use $expect_text() over $expect_html() to allow
package authors room to alter their HTML structures. The resulting array
of TAG.textContent values found will be stored in a snapshot file.
Please see Robust testing for more details.
Arguments
selectorA DOM selector to be passed into
document.querySelectorAll()...Must be empty. Allows for parameter expansion.
outer_htmlIf
TRUE(default), the full DOM structure will be returned (TAG.outerHTML). IfFALSE, the full DOM structure of the child elements will be returned (TAG.innerHTML).cranDeprecated. With
AppDrivernever testing on CRAN, this parameter no longer has any effect.

Method expect_js()
Expect snapshot of JavaScript script output
This is a building block function that may be called by other functions.
For example, $expect_text() and $expect_html() are thin wrappers around this function.
Once the script has executed, the JSON result will be saved to a snapshot file.
Usage
AppDriver$expect_js(
script = missing_arg(),
...,
file = missing_arg(),
timeout = missing_arg(),
pre_snapshot = NULL,
cran = deprecated()
)Arguments
scriptA string containing the JavaScript script to be executed.
...Must be empty. Allows for parameter expansion.
fileA file containing JavaScript code to be read and used as the
script. Only one ofscriptorfilecan be specified.timeoutAmount of time to wait before giving up (milliseconds). Defaults to the resolved
timeoutvalue during theAppDriverinitialization.pre_snapshotA function to be called on the result of the script before taking the snapshot.
$expect_html()and$expect_text()both useunlist().cranDeprecated. With
AppDrivernever testing on CRAN, this parameter no longer has any effect.
Examples
\dontrun{
app_path <- system.file("examples/07_widgets", package = "shiny")
app <- AppDriver$new(app_path)
# Track how many clicks are given to `#update` button
app$run_js("
window.test_counter = 0;
$('#update').click(() => window.test_counter++);
")
app$set_inputs(obs = 20)
# Click the update button, incrementing the counter
app$click("update")
# Save a snapshot of number of clicks (1)
app$expect_js("window.test_counter;")
}
Method get_js()
Execute JavaScript code in the browser and return the result
This function will block the local R session until the code has finished
executing its tick in the browser. If a Promise is returned from the
script, $get_js() will wait for the promise to resolve. To have
JavaScript code execute asynchronously, wrap the code in a Promise object
and have the script return an atomic value.
Arguments will have to be inserted into the script as there is not access
to arguments. This can be done with commands like paste(). If using
glue::glue(), be sure to use uncommon .open and .close values to
avoid having to double all { and }.
Usage
AppDriver$get_js(
script = missing_arg(),
...,
file = missing_arg(),
timeout = missing_arg()
)Arguments
scriptJavaScript to execute. If a JavaScript Promise is returned, the R session will block until the promise has been resolved and return the value.
...Must be empty. Allows for parameter expansion.
fileA (local) file containing JavaScript code to be read and used as the
script. Only one ofscriptorfilecan be specified.timeoutAmount of time to wait before giving up (milliseconds). Defaults to the resolved
timeoutvalue during theAppDriverinitialization.
Examples
\dontrun{

"};\n",
"answer(<x>, <y>);\n"
)
app$get_js(js_txt)
#> [1] 42
}
Method run_js()
Execute JavaScript code in the browser
This function will block the local R session until the code has finished executing its tick in the browser.
The final result of the code will be ignored and not returned to the R session.
Usage
AppDriver$run_js(
script = missing_arg(),
...,
file = missing_arg(),
timeout = missing_arg()
)Arguments
scriptJavaScript to execute.
...Must be empty. Allows for parameter expansion.
fileA (local) file containing JavaScript code to be read and used as the
script. Only one ofscriptorfilecan be specified.timeoutAmount of time to wait before giving up (milliseconds). Defaults to the resolved
timeoutvalue during theAppDriverinitialization.

app <- AppDriver$new(shiny_app)
# Get JavaScript answer from the app's browser
app$get_js("1 + 1")
#> [1] 2
# Execute JavaScript code in the app's browser
app$run_js("1 + 1")
# (Returns `app` invisibly)
# With escaped arguments
loc_field <- "hostname"
js_txt <- paste0("window.location[", jsonlite::toJSON(loc_field, auto_unbox = TRUE), "]")
app$run_js(js_txt)
app$get_js(js_txt)
#> [1] "127.0.0.1"
}
Method expect_screenshot()
Expect a screenshot of the Shiny application
This method takes a screenshot of the application (of only the selector
area) and compares the image to the expected image.
Please be aware that this method is very brittle to changes outside of your Shiny application. These changes can include:
running on a different R version
running on a different in operating system
using a different default system font
using different package versions These differences are explicitly clear when working with plots.
Unless absolutely necessary for application consistency, it is strongly recommended to use other expectation methods.
Usage
AppDriver$expect_screenshot(
...,
threshold = getOption("shinytest2.compare_screenshot.threshold", NULL),
kernel_size = getOption("shinytest2.compare_screenshot.kernel_size", 5),
screenshot_args = missing_arg(),
delay = missing_arg(),
selector = missing_arg(),
compare = missing_arg(),
quiet = FALSE,
name = NULL,
cran = deprecated()
)Arguments
...Must be empty. Allows for parameter expansion.
thresholdParameter supplied to
compare_screenshot_threshold()when using the defaultcomparemethod. The default value can be set globally with theshinytest2.compare_screenshot.thresholdoption.If the value of
thresholdisNULL,compare_screenshot_threshold()will act liketestthat::compare_file_binary. However, ifthresholdis a positive number, it will be compared against the largest convolution value found if the two images fail atestthat::compare_file_binarycomparison.Which value should I use? Threshold values values below 5 help deter false-positive screenshot comparisons (such as inconsistent rounded corners). Larger values in the 10s and 100s will help find real changes. However, not all values are one size fits all and you will need to play with a threshold that fits your needs.
kernel_sizeParameter supplied to
compare_screenshot_threshold()when using the defaultcomparemethod. Thekernel_sizerepresents the height and width of the convolution kernel applied to the pixel differences. This integer-like value should be relatively small. The default value can be set globally with theshinytest2.compare_screenshot.kernel_sizeoption.screenshot_argsThis named list of arguments is passed along to
chromote::ChromoteSession's$get_screenshot()method. If missing, the value will default to$new(screenshot_args=).If
screenshot_argsis:TRUE: A screenshot of the browser's scrollable area will be taken with no delayA named list of arguments: Arguments passed directly to
chromote::ChromoteSession's$get_screenshot()method. Thedelayargument will default to0seconds. Theselectorargument can take two special values in addition to being a CSS DOM selector."scrollable_area"(default): The entire scrollable area will be captured. Typically this is your browser's viewport size, but it can be larger if the page is scrollable. This value works well with Apps that contain elements whose calculated dimensions may be different than their presented size."viewport": This value will capture the browser's viewport in its current viewing location, height, and width. It will only capture what is currently being seen with$view().
In
v0.3.0, the defaultselectorvalue was changed from the HTML DOM selector ("html") to entire scrollable area ("scrollable_area").
delayThe number of seconds to wait before taking the screenshot. This value can be supplied as
delayorscreenshot_args$delay, with thedelayparameter having preference.selectorThe selector is a CSS selector that will be used to select a portion of the page to be captured. This value can be supplied as

oldandnewsnapshot, and return eitherTRUEorFALSE.comparedefaults to a function that wraps aroundcompare_screenshot_threshold(old, new, threshold = threshold, kernel_size = kernel_size, quiet = quiet). Note: ifthresholdisNULL(default),comparewill behave as iftestthat::compare_file_binary()was provided, comparing the two images byte-by-byte.quietParameter supplied to
compare_screenshot_threshold()when using the defaultcomparemethod. IfFALSE, diagnostic information will be presented when the computed value is larger than a non-NULLthresholdvalue.nameThe file name to be used for the snapshot. The file extension will overwritten to
.png. By default, thenamesupplied toappon initialization with a counter will be used (e.g."NAME-001.png").cranDeprecated. With

Method wait_for_idle()
Wait for Shiny to not be busy (idle) for a set amount of time
Waits until Shiny has not been busy for a set duration of time, e.g. no reactivity is updating or has occurred.
This is useful, for example, when waiting for your application to
initialize or if you've resized the window with $set_window_size() and
want to make sure all plot redrawing is complete before take a
screenshot.
By default,
$new(wait = TRUE)waits for Shiny to not be busy after initializing the application$set_window_size(wait = TRUE)waits for Shiny to not be busy after resizing the window.)
Arguments
durationHow long Shiny must be idle (in ms) before unblocking the R session.
timeoutAmount of time to wait before giving up (milliseconds). Defaults to the resolved
timeoutvalue during theAppDriverinitialization.
Examples
\dontrun{
app_path <- system.file("examples/01_hello", package = "shiny")
app <- AppDriver$new(app_path)
pre_value <- app$get_value(output = "distPlot")
# Update bins value
app$set_inputs(bins = 10, wait_ = FALSE)
middle_value <- app$get_value(output = "distPlot")
app$wait_for_idle()
post_value <- app$get_value(output = "distPlot")
# No guarantee that these values are different
identical(pre_value, middle_value)
# Will not be equal
identical(pre_value, post_value)
# ---------------------
## Change the screen size to trigger a plot update
pre_value <- app$get_value(output = "distPlot")
app$set_window_size(height = 1080, width = 1920, wait = FALSE)
middle_value <- app$get_value(output = "distPlot")
app$wait_for_idle()
post_value <- app$get_value(output = "distPlot")
# No guarantee that these values are different
identical(pre_value, middle_value)
# Will not be equal
identical(pre_value, post_value)
}
Method wait_for_value()
Wait for a new Shiny value
Waits until an input, output, or export Shiny value is not one of
ignored values, or the timeout is reached.
Only a single input, output, or export value may be used.
This function can be useful in helping determine if an application has finished processing a complex reactive situation.
Usage
AppDriver$wait_for_value(
...,
input = missing_arg(),
output = missing_arg(),
export = missing_arg(),
ignore = list(NULL, ""),
timeout = missing_arg(),
interval = 400
)Arguments
...Must be empty. Allows for parameter expansion.
input, output, exportA name of an input, output, or export value. Only one of these parameters may be used.
ignoreList of possible values to ignore when checking for updates.
timeoutAmount of time to wait before giving up (milliseconds). Defaults to the resolved
timeoutvalue during theAppDriverinitialization.intervalHow often to check for the condition, in ms.
timeout_Amount of time to wait for a new
outputvalue before giving up (milliseconds). Defaults to the resolvedtimeoutvalue during theAppDriverinitialization.
Examples
\dontrun{
library(shiny)
shiny_app <- shinyApp(
fluidPage(
h1("Dynamic output"),
actionButton("display", "Display UI"),
uiOutput("dym1"),
),
function(input, output) {
output$dym1 <- renderUI({
req(input$display)
Sys.sleep(runif(1, max = 2)) # Artificial calculations
tagList(
sliderInput("slider1", "Slider #1", 0, 100, 25),
uiOutput("dym2")
)
})
output$dym2 <- renderUI({
Sys.sleep(runif(1, max = 2)) # Artificial calculations
tagList(
sliderInput("slider2", "Slider #2", 0, 100, 50),
"Total:", verbatimTextOutput("total")
)
})
output$total <- renderText({

app <- AppDriver$new(shiny_app)
# Create UI / output values
app$click("display")
# Wait for total to be calculated (or have a non-NULL value)
new_total_value <- app$wait_for_value(output = "total")
#> [1] "75"
app$get_value(output = "total")
#> [1] "75"
}
Method wait_for_js()
Wait for a JavaScript expression to be true
Waits until a JavaScript expression evaluates to true or the
timeout is exceeded.
Arguments
scriptA string containing JavaScript code. This code must eventually return a
truethy value or a timeout error will be thrown.timeoutHow long the script has to return a
truethy value (milliseconds). Defaults to the resolvedtimeoutvalue during theAppDriverinitialization.intervalHow often to check for the condition (milliseconds).
Returns
invisible(self) if expression evaluates to true without error
within the timeout. Otherwise an error will be thrown
Examples
\dontrun{
shiny_app <- shinyApp(h1("Empty App"), function(input, output) { })
app <- AppDriver$new(shiny_app)
# Contrived example:
# Wait until `Date.now()` returns a number that ends in a 5. (0 - 10 seconds)
system.time(
app$wait_for_js("Math.floor((Date.now() / 1000) % 10) == 5;")
)
## A second example where we run the contents of a JavaScript file
## and use the result to wait for a condition
app$run_js(file = "complicated_file.js")
app$wait_for_js("complicated_condition();")
}
Method expect_unique_names()
Expect unique input and output names.
If the HTML has duplicate input or output elements with matching id
values, this function will throw an error. It is similar to
AppDriver$new(check_names = TRUE), but asserts that no warnings are
displayed.
This method will not throw if a single input and a single output have the same name.
Examples
\dontrun{
shiny_app <- shinyApp(
ui = fluidPage(
# Duplicate input IDs: `"text"`
textInput("text", "Text 1"),
textInput("text", "Text 2")
),
server = function(input, output) {
# empty
}
)
# Initial checking for unique names (default behavior)
app <- AppDriver$new(shiny_app, check_names = TRUE)
#> Warning:
#> ! Shiny inputs should have unique HTML id values.
#> i The following HTML id values are not unique:
#> • text
app$stop()
# Manually assert that all names are unique
app <- AppDriver$new(shiny_app, check_names = FALSE)
app$expect_unique_names()
#> Error: `app_check_unique_names(self, private)` threw an unexpected warning.
#> Message: ! Shiny inputs should have unique HTML id values.
#> i The following HTML id values are not unique:
#> • text
#> Class: rlang_warning/warning/condition
app$stop()
}
Method get_dir()

Method get_window_size()
Get window size
Get current size of the browser window, as list of numeric scalars
named width and height.
Method set_window_size()
Sets size of the browser window.
Arguments
width, heightHeight and width of browser, in pixels.
waitIf
TRUE,$wait_for_idle()will be called after setting the window size. This will block until any width specific items (such as plots) that need to be re-rendered.
Examples
\dontrun{
app_path <- system.file("examples/01_hello", package = "shiny")
# Set init window size
app <- AppDriver$new(app_path, height = 1400, width = 1000)
app$get_window_size()
#> $width
#> [1] 1000
#>
#> $height
#> [1] 1400
# Manually set the window size
app$set_window_size(height = 1080, width = 1920)

Method stop()
Stop the Shiny application driver
This method stops all known processes:
The Shiny application in the background R process,
the background R process hosting the Shiny application, and
the Chromote Session instance.
To stop your shiny application and return a value from $stop(), see
shiny::stopApp(). This is useful in testing to return context
information.
Typically, this can be paired with a button that when clicked will call
shiny::stopApp(info) to return info from the test app back to the
main R session.
Arguments
signal_timeoutMilliseconds to wait between sending a
SIGINT,SIGTERM, andSIGKILLto the Shiny process. Defaults to 500ms and does not utilize the resolved value fromAppDriver$new(timeout=). However, if covr is currently executing, then thetimeoutis set to 20,000ms to allow for the coverage report to be generated.
