How can I test DART's runApp() function

Question

I can't reach 100% test coverage because of DART's runApp() function. I tried to create tests for this function, but couldn't. Has anyone created a test for this function?

void main() => runApp(MyApp());

My coverage is 96.2% because only one line with the runApp() function has no test.

I would like to know how to create a unit test for this function.

You can use comments to tell the coverage calculator to ignore lines:

// coverage:ignore-start
void main() => runApp(MyApp());
// coverage:ignore-end

I wouldn't recommend letting this strategy permeate the rest of your code, but for this simple one-off, it seems fine.
