import 'package:superuser/instance.dart';
import 'package:superuser/mock.dart';

void main() {
setUpAll(() {
// Bind mock instance here
SuperuserInstance.bindInstance(const MockSuperuser(whoAmI: "reonaw"));
});
// Do any testes below
}

If using for debug simulation, mock interface must be binded before runApp:
import 'package:flutter/widgets.dart';
import 'package:superuser/instance.dart';
import 'package:superuser/mock.dart';

void main() {
SuperuserInstance.bindInstance(const MockSuperuser(whoAmI: "hiderik", isSuperuser: true, isActivated: true));
