Error in unit test - MissingPluginException(No implementation found for method getApplicationDocumentsDirectory on channel plugins.flutter.io/path_provider)

[medleykupps]

I'm unit testing a service that relies on FLog.

My service's method contains a logging statement, FLog.info(text: 'message'); that results in the following error:

MissingPluginException(No implementation found for method getApplicationDocumentsDirectory on channel plugins.flutter.io/path_provider)

When I change the logging call to FLog.trace(text: 'message');, it works fine...guessing because it doesn't actually try and write a log entry.

Is there a way around this? Can I mock the FLog method calls? Or, do I need to create my own logging interface that calls FLog internally, and, then mock that interface in my unit tests?

@slc1973 The solution in your link used to work. But since 2.10.5 I keep getting this error, described in this issue. Any other solutions?
