Hot Reload is one of the biggest selling points of Flutter. It makes development fast. At least when writing user interfaces. Unit tests don't support Hot Reload. With Dart2, spawning a new Isolate for each test file, tests became rather slow (multiple seconds until seeing first results).

It would be great when Hot Reload would also work for tests, making not only UI development fast but also TDD fun.
