I'm having some major difficulties getting Espresso to work with Android Studio.
I have the following code for a test:
import android.support.test.rule.ActivityTestRule; import android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnit4; import com.nullpointexecutioners.buzzfilms.activities.WelcomeActivity; import org.junit.Rule; import org.junit.Test; import org.junit.runner.RunWith; @RunWith(AndroidJUnit4.class) public class ApplicationTest { @Rule public ActivityTestRule<WelcomeActivity> mActivityRule = new ActivityTestRule<>(WelcomeActivity.class); @Test public void testTitle() { onView(withText("Buzz Films")).check(matches(isDisplayed())); } } Unfortunately, the onView, withText, matches, and isDisplayed() all give me errors saying the methods can't be resolved. I can get it to work if I do a bunch of static import statements--but I didn't want to resort to that. (i.e. I'd have to write Espresso.onView(ViewMatchers.withText(...)...)
I'd like to think I have my build.gradle file correct--based on what information I could find regarding my issue.
