I am trying to build very simple unittest with roboletric but I can't create the activity.

I tried what was suggested on the thread but no success.

Resources$NotFoundException when calling Robolectric.buildActivity()

Yet, I am using the 4.0.1 version. I wonder if there some extra setup that I need to do.

Here's is my gradle:

dependencies 
 implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
 implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0'
 implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.1.3'
 testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
 androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.2'

 testImplementation 'androidx.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.1.0'
 testImplementation 'androidx.test:core:1.0.0'
 testImplementation 'androidx.test.ext:junit:1.0.0'
 testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
 testImplementation 'org.mockito:mockito-core:2.23.0'
 testImplementation 'org.robolectric:robolectric:4.0.1'
 androidTestImplementation 'com.google.truth:truth:0.42'
 testImplementation 'com.google.truth:truth:0.42'
 androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:rules:1.0.2'
 androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.2'

and my test program:

@Config(sdk = 28, manifest=Config.NONE)
@RunWith(RobolectricTestRunner.class)
public class MainActivityTest 
 private Activity activity;
 @Before
 public void setup() 

 try 
 // I tried these 3 lines of code and they all throw the exception :(

 //activity = Robolectric.buildActivity(MainActivity.class).create().get();
 //activity = Robolectric.setupActivity(MainActivity.class);
 activity = Robolectric.buildActivity(MainActivity.class).create().start().resume().get();
 
 catch (Exception e)
 
 System.out.println("Keeps throwing exception!");
 
 

here' the output:

[Robolectric] com.guitarv.robotest.MainActivityTest.validateTextViewContent: sdk=28; resources=legacy
[Robolectric] NOTICE: legacy resources mode is deprecated; see http://robolectric.org/migrating/#migrating-to-40
Keeps throwing exception!
Test:Sun Nov 11 06:21:59 PST 2018

I did click on that link and update the gradle.properties to:

org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx1536m
# When configured, Gradle will run in incubating parallel mode.
# This option should only be used with decoupled projects. More details, visit
# http://www.gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/multi_project_builds.html#sec:decoupled_projects
# org.gradle.parallel=true
android.enableUnitTestBinaryResources=true

But no success. I still can't create the activity and the legacy mode message keeps showing up.

any clues what am I doing wrong?

thank you.

Robolectric can't find your app's resources.

Add this to your build.gradle:

android 
 testOptions 
 unitTests.includeAndroidResources = true
 

Add this to your gradle.properties (not necessary with Android Studio 3.3+):

android.enableUnitTestBinaryResources=true
