assertSnapshot(of: Text("Hello"), as: .image)will not compile or give runtime crash due to missing frameSnapShotting. There the.imagefor a SwiftUI view only exists if the format is a UIImage, but on macOS that does not existI added a test that runs on macOS and IOS and produces a snapshot. It uses
ImageRendererwhich is only available as of iOS 16 and also on macOS it requires at least 13. So using it is not a general solution. It however solves/bypasses the issues I had with making a simple snaphot of a swiftUI view.I'm not sure this is a good solution or more of a workaround? But I think it might document a problem and could be a strategy for some?
Might relate to issue #428, #533
