Dart/Flutter Web unit testing errors: Error: Not found: 'dart:html'
I'm working on a Flutter web app and I'm having trouble running a test.

I wrote a couple of tests that are passing when I run pub run test in either the IDE's terminal (VS Code) or in terminal app.
The test I'm having trouble with requires some package imports from the project. With this test in place I get errors and the other two tests don't run. I haven't found anything that points to a solution.
This is the error message:

00:06 +0 -1: Some tests failed.
If I comment out this new test, the errors persist. If I comment out the test and the related imports the remaining two tests run and pass.
This is the test file (I left the offending code commented out so it's easier for you to see - I hope).

This is the class that has the method I'm trying to test (generateForm()).

bool get isNew => _tenant.id == null;
set tenant(Tenant tenant) {
if (_tenant != tenant) {
_tenant = tenant;
notifyListeners();
}
}
Tenant get tenant => _tenant;
set property(Property property) {
_tenant.propertyId = property.id;
notifyListeners();
}
Property get property => _property;
set submission(SubmissionResponse submission) {
if (_submission != submission) {
_submission = submission;
notifyListeners();
}
}
SubmissionResponse get submission => _submission;
set responseData(ResponseData responseData) {
if (_responseData != responseData) {
_responseData = responseData;
notifyListeners();
}
}
ResponseData get responseData => _responseData;
Future generateForm(String templateID) async {

submission = await _service.generateForm(_tenant.id, templateID);
this.submission = submission;
notifyListeners();
}

this.responseData = responseData;

}
Future save() async {

if (tenant.isNew) {

this.tenant = updatedTenant;
} else {

var updatedTenant = await _service.getTenant(_tenant.id);
if (_tenant.propertyId != null) {

}
}
I have tried:
import 'package:flutter_test/flutter_test.dart'; in the test file and adding this to the pubspec.yaml:
flutter_test:
sdk: flutter
These cause their own varieties of errors, because I'm using Flutter Web, not Flutter. Can anyone see where I'm going wrong?
I am aware that the test I'm working on is probably wrong as it is, but I can't even get to the point of having it run and fail.
Answer
I had a similar issue while developing for a mobile app, but it turned out that I imported the package dart.html accidentally. I just removed it and I was able to run the program.
