JaCoCo doesn't work with Robolectric tests

Question

I wanted to generate code coverage reports on my JUnit tests in my android project so I added the JaCoCo gradle plugin. This is my project level build.gradle fi

Answer 1

It is known issue with the possible workaround - https://github.com/jacoco/jacoco/pull/288

Or downgrade jacoco version to 0.7.1.201405082137

UPDATE

The workaround is not needed anymore. You must use gradle version 2.13 and jacoco version 0.7.6.201602180812.

Update root build.gradle:

buildscript {
    dependencies {
        classpath 'org.jacoco:org.jacoco.core:0.7.6.201602180812'
    }
}

task wrapper( type: Wrapper ) {
  gradleVersion = '2.13'
}

Run ./gradlew wrapper

Update project build.gradle:

apply plugin: 'jacoco'

android {
  testOptions {
    unitTests.all {
      jacoco {
        includeNoLocationClasses = true
      }
    }
  }
}
