APPLYING MVI ARCHITECTURE TO ENHANCE TESTABILITY AND MAINTAINABILITY IN ANDROID APPLICATIONS

In the world of Android application development, building scalable and easily supported systems is a crucial task. The Model-View-Intent (MVI) architectural pattern has proven to be an effective approach to achieve these goals due to the strict separation of responsibilities between components, unidirectional data flow and an emphasis on immutability. This article discusses the basic principles of the MVI architecture, its advantages and disadvantages, as well as its impact on the testability and maintainability of applications. Using MVI allows you to improve the predictability of application behavior, simplify debugging and state management, and also contributes to modularity and ease of code maintenance. In conclusion, examples of successful application of MVI in practice are discussed, which confirms its usefulness for the development of complex and highly loaded applications.
