Unable to load asset SVG during widget testing

Question

I want to do a widget test on some of my screens which includes SvgPicture widget, but I can't do it because it throws an exception.

Code to reproduce the error:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_svg/svg.dart';
import 'package:flutter_test/flutter_test.dart';


void main() {
  testWidgets(
    'SvgPicture.asset passes',
    (WidgetTester tester) async {
      await tester.pumpWidget(MaterialApp(
        home: Scaffold(
          body: SvgPicture.asset('icons/pencil.svg'),
        ),
      ));
      await tester.pump();
    },
  );
}

Result of execution:

══╡ EXCEPTION CAUGHT BY SVG ╞═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
The following assertion was thrown resolving a single-frame picture stream:
Unable to load asset: icons/pencil.svg

When the exception was thrown, this was the stack:
#0      PlatformAssetBundle.load (package:flutter/src/services/asset_bundle.dart:224:7)
<asynchronous suspension>
<asynchronous suspension>
(elided one frame from package:stack_trace)
...

Picture provider: ExactAssetPicture(name: "icons/pencil.svg", bundle: null, colorFilter: null)
Picture key: AssetBundlePictureKey(bundle: PlatformAssetBundle#c2c00(), name: "icons/pencil.svg",
  colorFilter: null)
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

How do I pass the test?

Just create fake AssetBundle and wrap the whole app with it:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter/services.dart';
import 'package:flutter_svg/svg.dart';
import 'package:flutter_test/flutter_test.dart';
import 'package:mocktail/mocktail.dart';

class FakeAssetBundle extends Fake implements AssetBundle {
  final String svgStr = '''<svg viewBox="0 0 10 10"></svg>''';

  @override
  Future<String> loadString(String key, {bool cache = true}) async => svgStr;
}

void main() {
  testWidgets(
    'SvgPicture.asset passes',
    (WidgetTester tester) async {
      await tester.pumpWidget(DefaultAssetBundle(
        bundle: FakeAssetBundle(),
        child: MaterialApp(
          home: Scaffold(
            body: SvgPicture.asset('icons/pencil.svg'),
          ),
        ),
      ));
      await tester.pump();
    },
  );
}
