I want to start using Robolectric and RoboGuice in my Android-Apps. While I make satisfactory progress using Robolectric I am stuck using RoboGuice. I created a small Android-App for experimenting. It is only one Activity, injecting a Button and setting its OnClickListener. In the related Test-Class I want to Inject this Activity, to be able to test the Button. I tried a lot of things I found all over the internet, but none of these worked, so I give it a go here. Here is some code:
MainActivity.java:
package com.example.TrialApp;
import android.content.SharedPreferences;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import roboguice.activity.RoboActivity;
import roboguice.inject.InjectView;
public class MainActivity extends RoboActivity implements View.OnClickListener {
@InjectView(R.id.main_LoginButton) private Button loginButton;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
loginButton.setOnClickListener(this);
}
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
SharedPreferences.Editor editor;
if (view.getId() == R.id.main_Login_Button)
Log.i("Login-Button pressed... ", "");
}
}
CustomRobolectricTestRunner.java:
package com.example.TrialApp;
import com.xtremelabs.robolectric.RobolectricTestRunner;
import org.junit.runners.model.InitializationError;
import java.io.File;
public class CustomRobolectricTestRunner extends RobolectricTestRunner {
public CustomRobolectricTestRunner(Class testClass) throws InitializationError {
// defaults to "AndroidManifest.xml", "res" in the current directory
super(testClass, new File("TrialApp"));
}
}
MainActivity_Test.java:
package com.example.TrialApp;
import com.google.inject.Inject;
import com.xtremelabs.robolectric.Robolectric;
import org.junit.Before;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import static org.junit.Assert.assertNotNull;
@RunWith(CustomRobolectricTestRunner.class)
public class MainActivity_Test {
@Inject MainActivity mainActivity;
@Inject ClassWithoutAName classWithoutAName;
@Before
public void setUp() {
}
@Test
public void mainActivityShouldNotBeNull() {
assertNotNull(mainActivity);
}
@Test
public void classWithoutANameShouldNotBeNull() {
assertNotNull(classWithoutAName);
}
}
classWithoutAName is just a non-Activity-class with no content. I added just for injecting a non-Activity-class.
Running the Test-Class both tests fail giving the following errors:
java.lang.AssertionError
at com.example.TrialApp.MainActivity_Test.mainActivityShouldNotBeNull(MainActivity_Test.java:33) <8 internal calls>
at com.xtremelabs.robolectric.RobolectricTestRunner$1.evaluate(RobolectricTestRunner.java:288) <16 internal calls>
and
java.lang.AssertionError
at com.example.TrialApp.MainActivity_Test.classWithoutANameShouldNotBeNull(MainActivity_Test.java:38) <8 internal calls>
at com.xtremelabs.robolectric.RobolectricTestRunner$1.evaluate(RobolectricTestRunner.java:288) <16 internal calls>
Obviously something is missing. Injecting in MainActivity works fine, and the app is running.
Why is the same pattern of injecting dependencies in a Robolectric-Testclass not working? Where is the missing link?
Thank you
After reading some more articles and threads I found a partial solution. I still haven't found a way to inject UI-elements in a testclass, but I found out, how to inject non-UI-elements in a testclass. The trick is to implement a "RobolectricTestModule" extending the AbstractModule. The bindings made in the modules declared in the roboguice.xml are not present in the test-environment, so we need to declare the bindings for the test-environment in this extra-module. In the customized Testrunner we replace the DefaultRoboModule with the new RobolectricTestModule.
ClassWithoutAName.java:
package com.example.TrialApp;
public class ClassWithoutAName {
private String string;
public ClassWithoutAName(String string) {
this.string = string;
}
public String getString() {
return string;
}
}
ClassWithoutANameProvider.java
package com.example.TrialApp.GuiceModules;
import com.example.TrialApp.ClassWithoutAName;
import com.google.inject.Provider;
public class ClassWithoutANameProvider implements Provider<ClassWithoutAName> {
@Override
public ClassWithoutAName get() {
return new ClassWithoutAName("testString");
}
}
ClassWithOutANameModule.java
package com.example.TrialApp.GuiceModules;
import com.example.TrialApp.ClassWithoutAName;
import com.google.inject.AbstractModule;
public class ClassWithOutANameModule extends AbstractModule {
@Override
protected void configure() {
bind(ClassWithoutAName.class).toProvider(ClassWithoutANameProvider.class);
}
}
RobolectricTestModule.java
package com.example.TrialApp.GuiceModules;
import com.example.TrialApp.WeirdThings;
import com.google.inject.AbstractModule;
public class RobolectricTestModule extends AbstractModule {
@Override
protected void configure() {
bind(ClassWithoutAName.class).toProvider(ClassWithoutANameProvider.class);
}
}
CustomRobolectricTestRunner.java
package com.example.TrialApp;
import android.app.Application;
import com.example.TrialApp.GuiceModules.RobolectricTestModule;
import com.xtremelabs.robolectric.Robolectric;
import com.xtremelabs.robolectric.RobolectricTestRunner;
import org.junit.runners.model.InitializationError;
import roboguice.RoboGuice;
import java.io.File;
public class CustomRobolectricTestRunner extends RobolectricTestRunner {
public CustomRobolectricTestRunner(Class testClass) throws InitializationError {
// defaults to "AndroidManifest.xml", "res" in the current directory
super(testClass, new File("TrialApp"));
}
@Override
public void prepareTest(Object test) {
Application application = (Application) Robolectric.application;
RoboGuice.setBaseApplicationInjector(application, RoboGuice.DEFAULT_STAGE,
RoboGuice.newDefaultRoboModule(application), new RobolectricTestModule());
RoboGuice.getInjector(application).injectMembers(test);
}
}
Thats it for the non-UI-Elements.
