使用observeOn（），Android UI线程崩溃了我的模拟器测试

Question

When I use RxAndroid and .observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread()) , and run tests on an emulator using Android Studio, the whole test run crashes with:

Instrumentation run failed due to ' java.lang.NoSuchMethodError '

and logcat output like the following:

FATAL EXCEPTION: main

Neither Android Studio nor the logcat output mention any lines of code in my project or my tests. Here are some relevant parts of a short example project I created that reproduces this crash:

app/build.gradle

dependencies {
    compile 'io.reactivex:rxandroid:0.24.0'
}

MainActivity.java

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
    public void setTitleFrom(Observable<String> observable) {
        observable.observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread())
                .subscribe(new Action1<String>() {
                    @Override
                    public void call(String s) {
                        setTitle(s);
                    }
                });
    }
}

MainActivityFuncTest.java

public class MainActivityFuncTest extends ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2<MainActivity> {
    public void testSetTitle() {
        final String newTitle = "Hello World";
        getActivity().setTitleFrom(Observable.just(newTitle));
        getInstrumentation().waitForIdleSync();
        assertEquals(newTitle, getActivity().getTitle());
    }
}

My test runs correctly if I modify my MainActivity code to not use observeOn() :

public void setTitleFrom(Observable<String> observable) {
    observable.subscribe(new Action1<String>() {
        @Override
        public void call(final String s) {
            runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
                @Override
                public void run() {
                    setTitle(s);
                }
            });
        }
    });
}

But I'd rather use observeOn() , because it's cleaner and more modular. How can I get my tests to run?

My emulator is running API version 8 (Android 2.2).

Answer 1

According to RxJava's GitHub page , RxJava versions 1.0.x only work on Android 2.3 or later (corresponding to API 9 or later). RxAndroid depends on RxJava, of course, so the same restriction applies (even though it's currently not mentioned on the RxAndroid page.)

The above tests run fine on an emulator running a more recent version of Android.
