## 1. Which Dart package provides the core functionality for writing unit tests?

**Answer**

The test package is the official Dart package for writing unit tests. It provides test(), group(), setUp(), tearDown() functions and matchers for assertions. This package is included in dev_dependencies of any Flutter project and forms the foundation of all Dart testing.

## 2. Which function should be used to group multiple related tests into a logical suite?

**Answer**

The group() function allows grouping related tests together, improving organization and readability. Each group can have its own setUp and tearDown, and groups can be nested to create a test hierarchy. This improves the structure and maintenance of test suites.

## 3. When is the setUp() function executed in a group of tests?

**Answer**

setUp() is executed before each individual test in the group. This allows initializing the necessary state for each test, ensuring that each test starts in a clean and independent state. For a one-time initialization before all tests, use setUpAll() instead.
