Android: Unit testing Android applications with Robolectric and Mockito

Question

I have a Java library that uses a few things from the Android APIs. I\'d like to use Mockito to write unit tests for this library.

Is there a way I can go about this? <

Answer 1

After much Googling, I have come across an answer for this here.

Basically it involves using the Robolectric unit testing framework, which intercepts the loading of the Android classes. You can then go ahead and use Mockito (although it isn't necessary in most cases) and run your tests on the JVM!
