I'm using robolectric to test an activity that makes use of Google Analytics. Unfortunately, whenever I try to start up the activity I get the following exception
android.database.SQLException

The problem is that Android uses SQLite databases, but robolectric is using H2 which support a slightly different flavor of SQL.
What's the easiest way to get around this problem?
