How to create a Page/Screen Object Model in Jetpack Compose Testing

Question

For basic testing, if I create a test class like below, it works fine.

class MyComposeTest {

    @get:Rule
    val composeTestRule = createAndroidComposeRule<MainActivity>()

    @Test
    fun myTest() {

        composeTestRule.onNodeWithText("Login").performClick()

        composeTestRule.onNodeWithText("Home").assertIsDisplayed()
    }
}

But what if i want to abstract some of these into separate classes for an end-to-end test?

e.g. I want to create a login page class with all locators for Login and similarly for Home page and simplify my test as

@Test
fun myTest() {
   val login = LoginPage() 
   val home = HomePage()

   login.loginBtn.performClick() 
   home.homeTxt.assertIsDisplayed()
}

I am not sure how my page classes (with locators) should look like to make this possible.

You should pass the composeTestRule in the page's constructor. The code would look like this:

class BaseTestSuite {
    @get:Rule
    val composeTestRule = createAndroidComposeRule<MainActivity>()
}

class LoginPage(composeTestRule: ComposeContentTestRule) {
    val loginBtn = onNodeWithText("Login")

    fun tapLoginButton() {
        loginBtn.performClick() 
    }
}

class MyTestSuite() : BaseTestSuite {
    val loginPage = LoginPage(composeTestRule) 

    @Test
    fun myTest() {
        loginPage.tapLoginButton()
    
        // rest of the code
    
    }
}
