How can we access context of an application in Robolectric?

Question

Actually, I need to get a response of an API call, for that I required Context.

Answer 1

In some cases, you may need your app's context instead of the Robolectris default context. For example, if you want to get your package name. By default Robolectric will return you org.robolectric.default package name. To get your real package name do the following:

build.gradle

testImplementation 'org.robolectric:robolectric:4.2.1'

Your test class:

@RunWith(RobolectricTestRunner.class)
@Config( manifest="AndroidManifest.xml")
public class FooTest {

@Test
public void fooTestWithPackageName(){
    Context context = ApplicationProvider.getApplicationContext();
    System.out.println("My Real Package Name: " + context.getPackageName());
}

}

Make sure that in your Run/Debug Configurations Working directory is set to: $MODULE_DIR$
