Strings are null at UI tests

[kndl22]

Hi, I'm building a UI test for my screen - and the test is failing when calling S.of(context).someText

The test:

void main(){
  testWidgets('Intro screen test', (WidgetTester tester) async {
    GetIt.instance.reset();
    locator.registerSingleton(KeyboardManager());

    await tester.pumpWidget(buildTestableWidget(IntroScreen()));
    await tester.pumpAndSettle();

    final buttonFinder = find.byType(IntroCtaButton);

    expect(buttonFinder, findsNWidgets(2));
  });
}

Widget buildTestableWidget(Widget widget) {
  return MediaQuery(
    data: const MediaQueryData(),
    child: MaterialApp(
      localizationsDelegates: const [
        S.delegate,
        GlobalMaterialLocalizations.delegate,
        GlobalWidgetsLocalizations.delegate
      ],
      supportedLocales: S.delegate.supportedLocales,
      home: widget,
    ),
  );
}

The error: The getter 'someText' was called on null.

Seen some related issue like this and this medium article but couldn't get it working.

I tested your setup on my project. Does not face this issue. Can you show flutter doctor?
