sendCommand method Null safety

Future sendCommand(
  1. String script,
  2. Duration? duration
)

Sends command via WebDriver to Flutter web application.

Implementation

  // to send commands. This part checks that `$flutterDriverResult` is present.
  // `$flutterDriver` is not checked because it is covered by the `script`
  // that's executed next.
