Robolectric with Gradle: Resources not found

问题:

I'm trying to run my Robolectric tests together with the new Gradle Android build system, but I'm stuck at accessing the resources of my main project.

I split the build into two separate projects to avoid conflicts between the java and the android gradle plugins, so the directory structure looks roughly like this:

.
├── build.gradle
├── settings.gradle
├── mainproject
│   ├── build
│   │   ├── classes
│   │   │   └── debug
│   ├── build.gradle
│   └── src
│       └── main
│           ├── AndroidManifest.xml
│           └── ...
└── test
    ├── build.gradle
    └── src
        └── test
            └── java
                └── ...
                    └── test
                        ├── MainActivityTest.java
                        ├── Runner.java
                        ├── ServerTestCase.java
                        └── StatusFetcherTest.java

My build.gradle in test/ currently looks like this:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.stanfy.android:gradle-plugin-java-robolectric:2.0'
    }
}

apply plugin: 'java-robolectric'

repositories {...}

javarob {
    packageName = 'com.example.mainproject'
}

test {
    dependsOn ':mainproject:build'
    scanForTestClasses = false
    include "**/*Test.class"
    // Oh, the humanity!
    def srcDir = project(':mainproject').android.sourceSets.main.java.srcDirs.toArray()[0].getAbsolutePath()
    workingDir srcDir.substring(0, srcDir.lastIndexOf('/'))
}

project(':mainproject').android.sourceSets.main.java.srcDirs.each {dir ->
    def buildDir = dir.getAbsolutePath().split('/')
    buildDir =  (buildDir[0..(buildDir.length - 4)] + ['build', 'classes', 'debug']).join('/')

    sourceSets.test.compileClasspath += files(buildDir)
    sourceSets.test.runtimeClasspath += files(buildDir)
}

dependencies {    
    testCompile group: 'com.google.android', name: 'android', version: '4.1.1.4'
    testCompile group: 'org.robolectric', name: 'robolectric', version: '2.0-alpha-3'
    ...
}

The evil classpath hackery allows me to access all classes of my main project, except for R, which exists as .class file in the build directory, but raises this error during the compileTestJava task:

/.../MainActivityTest.java:16: error: cannot find symbol
                final String appName = activity.getResources().getString(R.string.app_name);
                                                                          ^
  symbol:   variable string
  location: class R
1 error
:test:compileTestJava FAILED

There must be a better way to execute Robolectric tests with the new build system, right?

I was running across this same issue and this is what I came up with. Instead of creating a separate project for the tests, I created a source set for the Robolectric tests and added a new task that "check" would depend on. Using some of the code from your question, here are the relevant bits of the (working) build file:

apply plugin: 'android'

sourceSets {
    testLocal {
        java.srcDir file('src/test/java')
        resources.srcDir file('src/test/resources')
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile 'org.roboguice:roboguice:2.0'
    compile 'com.google.android:support-v4:r6'

    testLocalCompile 'junit:junit:4.8.2'
    testLocalCompile 'org.robolectric:robolectric:2.1'
    testLocalCompile 'com.google.android:android:4.0.1.2'
    testLocalCompile 'com.google.android:support-v4:r6'
    testLocalCompile 'org.roboguice:roboguice:2.0'
}

task localTest(type: Test, dependsOn: assemble) {
    testClassesDir = sourceSets.testLocal.output.classesDir

    android.sourceSets.main.java.srcDirs.each { dir ->
        def buildDir = dir.getAbsolutePath().split('/')
        buildDir =  (buildDir[0..(buildDir.length - 4)] + ['build', 'classes', 'debug']).join('/')

        sourceSets.testLocal.compileClasspath += files(buildDir)
        sourceSets.testLocal.runtimeClasspath += files(buildDir)
    }

    classpath = sourceSets.testLocal.runtimeClasspath
}

check.dependsOn localTest

I've included my dependencies block to point out that in order for me to get this up and going, I had to repeat all of my compile dependencies in my custom testLocal source set.

Running gradle testLocal builds and runs just the tests inside of src/test/java, while running gradle check runs these tests in addition to those in the default android instrumentTest source set.

Hope this helps!

Update: Jake Wharton just announced the gradle-android-test-plugin. You can find it at https://github.com/square/gradle-android-test-plugin

It seems to be pretty streamlined, especially if you plan to use robolectric.

Old Answer Below

The robolectric-plugin looks promising.

The sample build.gradle file they provide is :

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
        maven {
            url "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots"
        }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.4.2'
        classpath 'com.novoda.gradle:robolectric-plugin:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT'
    }
}

apply plugin: 'android'
apply plugin: 'robolectric'

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    mavenLocal()
    maven {
        url "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots"
    }
}

dependencies {
    //compile files('libs/android-support-v4.jar')

    // had to deploy to sonatype to get AAR to work
    compile 'com.novoda:actionbarsherlock:4.3.2-SNAPSHOT'

    robolectricCompile 'org.robolectric:robolectric:2.0'
    robolectricCompile group: 'junit', name: 'junit', version: '4.+'
}

android {
    compileSdkVersion 17
    buildToolsVersion "17.0.0"

    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 7
        targetSdkVersion 17
    }
}

It doesn't seem to work with the Android Gradle plugin version 0.5 but maybe it will soon.
