Dr. Dominik Hauser

Dr. Dominik Hauser is an iOS developer working for a small company in western Germany. In over 11 years as an iOS developer, he has worked on many different apps, both large and small. In his spare time, Dominik builds small (often silly) apps and explores how he can become a better iOS developer. He talks at conferences, writes books, and is active in the iOS community in general. His most successful open source component (in terms of stars) is a pull-to-refresh control for a table view that consists of an actual SpriteKit game. Before Dominik became an iOS developer, he was a physicist, researching the most powerful photon sources within our galaxy.

Presenting two sections

As we have already refactored to a diffable data source, supporting two sections in the table view is quite easy. Follow these steps to implement two sections:

  1. As always, we need to start with a failing test. Add the following test to ToDoItemsListViewControllerTests:
    // ToDoItemsListViewControllerTests.swift
    func test_numberOfSections_shouldReturnTwo() {
      var doneItem = ToDoItem(title: "dummy 2")
      doneItem.done = true
      toDoItemStoreMock.itemPublisher
        .send([ToDoItem(title: "dummy 1"),
               doneItem])
      let result = sut.tableView.numberOfSections
      XCTAssertEqual(result, 2)
    }

In this test, we set a to-do item and a done item to the table view using toDoItemStoreMock. The name of the test method should also include what the preconditions of the tests are. We use a shorter name in the book because...
