I'm trying to add Spek testing framework to my Android Studio project. Following the instructions Here, I ended up adding the following to my module build.gradle
:
testCompile 'org.jetbrains.spek:spek-api:1.1.5'
testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
testCompile "org.junit.platform:junit-platform-runner:1.0.0"
testRuntimeOnly 'org.jetbrains.spek:spek-junit-platform-engine:1.1.5'
Then I annotated my test with @RunWith(JUnitPlatform::class)
However, when I try to run the test, I get:
org.junit.platform.commons.util.PreconditionViolationException: Cannot create Launcher without at least one TestEngine; consider adding an engine implementation JAR to the classpath
Any idea what am I missing?
(For future references)
To use Kotlin and Spek + JUnit5 in Android Studio you need the following:
In project's build.gradle you need to have:
buildscript {
ext.kotlin_version = '1.2.10'
ext.JUnit5_version = '1.0.30'
repositories {
google()
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.1'
classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
classpath "de.mannodermaus.gradle.plugins:android-junit5:$JUnit5_version"
}
}
In module's build.gradle you need to have:
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android-extensions'
apply plugin: "de.mannodermaus.android-junit5"
android {
...
sourceSets {
test.java.srcDirs += 'src/test/kotlin'
androidTest.java.srcDirs += 'src/androidTest/kotlin'
}
}
project.ext {
spekVersion = "1.1.5"
}
dependencies {
...
//
// TESTS
testImplementation("org.jetbrains.spek:spek-api:$spekVersion") {
exclude group: "org.jetbrains.kotlin"
}
testImplementation("org.jetbrains.spek:spek-junit-platform-engine:$spekVersion") {
exclude group: "org.junit.platform"
exclude group: "org.jetbrains.kotlin"
}
testImplementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-reflect:$kotlin_version"
testImplementation junit5.unitTests()
// see https://github.com/mannodermaus/android-junit5#android-studio-workarounds
testCompileOnly junit5.unitTestsRuntime()
}
Simple Spek test
class ExampleSpekTest : Spek({
val x = 2
val y = 3
given("x = $x and y = $y") {
val sum = x + y
it("should be that x + y = 5") {
Assert.assertEquals(5, sum)
}
it("should be that x - y = -1") {
val subtract = x - y
Assert.assertEquals(-1, subtract)
}
}
})

Apparently it doesn't work well... I ended up using kotlintest which is much easier to integrate
