v.1.0.1 Removed duplicate slide

v.1.0.0 Initial version


A tiny piece of structure

The presentation

Part 1: General project setup

Part 2: IDE integration


Part 1: General project setupThe easy part


Expecting the default project structure of Android Studio / Gradle

Project structure

├── build.gradle└── app ├── build.gradle └── src └── main ├── AndroidManifest.xml ├── java └── res


Robolectric and jUnit 4 to app/build.gradle

Dependencies

dependencies { androidTestCompile 'org.robolectric:robolectric:2.+' androidTestCompile 'junit:junit:4.+'}


Add novoda/robolectric-plugin to /build.gradle

Gradle plugin

buildscript { repositories { mavenCentral() // Add this repository: maven { url 'https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots' } } dependencies { classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.8.+' // And this dependency: classpath 'com.novoda.gradle:robolectric-plugin:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT' }}

allprojects { repositories { mavenCentral() // And finally this repository again. maven { url 'https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots' } }}


Apply the plugin to app/build.gradle

Gradle plugin

apply plugin: 'robolectric'

Now sync ...


Create a test folder: app/src/test/java/com/example/app/test

Create a test

package com.example.app.test;

import org.junit.Test;import org.junit.runner.RunWith;import org.robolectric.RobolectricTestRunner;

import static org.junit.Assert.*;

@RunWith(RobolectricTestRunner.class)public class RoboTest {

@Test public void testTrueIsTrue() throws Exception { assertEquals(true, true); }

}


Android Studio does not recognize app/src/test/java as source directory

Run the test (from the shell)

$ ./gradlew robolectric

Should look like this …

...:app:assemble:app:compileRobolectricJava:app:processRobolectricResources UP-TO-DATE:app:robolectricClasses:app:robolectric

BUILD SUCCESSFUL


The confusing part

Part 2: IDE integration


Add a task to app/build.gradle

Register the test folder

task addTest { description "Registers the test folder in the .iml file so Java tooling works." def src = ['src/test/java'] def file = file("app.iml") // Must match module file name

doLast { try { def parsedXml = (new XmlParser()).parse(file) def node = parsedXml.component[1].content[0] src.each { def path = 'file://$MODULE_DIR$/' + "${it}" def set = node.find { it.@url == path } if (set == null) { new Node(node, 'sourceFolder', ['url': 'file://$MODULE_DIR$/' + "${it}", 'isTestSource': "true"]) def writer = new StringWriter() new XmlNodePrinter(new PrintWriter(writer)).print(parsedXml) file.text = writer.toString() } } } catch (FileNotFoundException e) { // nop, iml not found } }}

// always do the addtest on prebuildgradle.projectsEvaluated { preBuild.dependsOn(addTest)}


The test folder is recognized by Android Studio

Register the test folder


Pick it from the context menu ...
