how to get the uibutton state value in test.m file - ios

Question

In .m file i have methods like
-(void) textdata
{
long i = search.text.length;
if (i > 0) {
searchButton.enabled = YES;
}
else
{
searchButton.enabled = NO;
}
[self buttonstate];
}
-(int) buttonstate
{
if ([searchButton isEnabled]) {
j = 1;
}
else
j = 0;
NSLog(#" j value is %d",j);
return j;
}
- (void) textFieldDidChange
{
[self textdata];
NSLog(#"test data is %#",search.text);
}
And in the tests.m file i have test like
-(void) testwithoutData
{
myapiViewController *apiViw = [[myapiViewController alloc]init];
[apiViw textdata];
int kn = [apiViw buttonstate];
NSLog(#"the value is %ld",(long)kn);
}

You have to do alloc init because due to this instance variable getting nil. Try this -
In ViewController.m -
-(int) buttonstate {
long i = self.searchTxt.text.length;
if (i > 0) {
self.searchBtn.enabled = YES;
}
else
{
self.searchBtn.enabled = NO;
}
if ([self.searchBtn isEnabled]) {
j = 1;
}
else
j = 0;
NSLog(#" j value is %d",j);
return j;
}
In ViewControllerTests.m -
- (void)testExample {
// This is an example of a functional test case.
XCTAssert(YES, #"Pass");
self.vcToTest.searchTxt = [[UITextField alloc] init];
self.vcToTest.searchBtn = [[UIButton alloc] init];
self.vcToTest.searchTxt.text = #"test";
int kn = [self.vcToTest buttonstate];
NSLog(#"the value is %ld",(long)kn);
}
