Android Studio - with Junit 4.12 “!!! JUnit version 3.8 or later expected:”

Question

Tried out the suggestions on this post, but I still get the error:

!!! JUnit version 3.8 or later expected:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Stub!
    at junit.r         


        

Answer 1

I had to update a Gradle settings file according to these instructions. I just added the line

testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'

to the dependencies block of my app's build.gradle file. If you check the "Project" tab in Android studio (where you can see your source code files) there should be a "Gradle Scripts" section. Look for the build.gradle file named after your package and add that line to the dependencies block, then click the "Sync now" prompt that should come up.
