Description
We need to improve test coverage for existing DevTools functionality and add new integration tests for DevTools workflows. In https://github.com/flutter/devtools/pull/3983 for example, several type casting issues were fixed that should have been caught by the DevTools test suite instead of being caught by manual testing.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing DevTools pull request 3983 and the existing DevTools test suite to identify the type-casting failures that manual testing found. Define the integration workflows and existing functionality that need coverage; done means the relevant regressions are exercised by automated tests rather than manual testing.
