Configuring res srcDirs for androidTest sourceSet

Question

I\'d like to include resources to be compiled only for testing.

I have the following in my app module build.gradle file:

android {

    ...

    sour

Turns out you don't need to change anything from the default build.gradle file.

The trick is that the auto-generated R.java file is different for resources in androidTest.

If the import statement for R somewhere in your main source set looks like:

import com.mycompany.myappname.R;

the import statement for R in a test file should look like:

import com.mycompany.myappname.test.R;
