Robolectric is basically a re-implementation of the Android SDK designed for easy testing. So instead

of having to run Android tests on an actual device, you can skip that.

that have to use Android API's, but should not be used to validate that your UI code is working. You won't

have an emulator or other device to make sure you actually wrote the tests the right way.

And with that out of the way, let me get into what it took for me to get Robolectric up and running for MinimalBible.

|

As of right now, Robolectric has very limited support for Android Lollipop (SDK 21), and most specifically the

`appcompat` libraries it ships with. Unfortunately it appears that the `ActionBarDrawerToggle` is causing some

[rather hairy problems](10) that aren't easy to figure out.

So if you're trying to get Robolectric working on a Lollipop app, here are my tips from the school of hard knocks:
|
||||
|
||||
1. You can only test Activities that do not use the `ActionBarDrawerToggle`. This thankfully means that `Fragment`
|
||||
testing will work just fine if you set them up maybe outside the original intended `Activity`.
|

|

2. Please make sure that all tests receive an `@Config(emulateSdk = 18)` until [this issue](11) is closed.

the test will output text which includes the two lines below:
