Android test raw resource

Question

I have the following folder structure in Android Studio:

├── androidTest
│   ├── java
│   └── res
│       └── raw
│           └── test_file
└── main
    ├──          


        

Answer 1

By default your androidTest project will include your app's R class, but androidTest's resources will be generated into a separate file. Make sure you import the R class from your test project:

import com.your.package.test.R;

[..]

getInstrumentation().getContext().getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.test_file);

You can also directly reference the test project's R class:

getInstrumentation().getContext().getResources().openRawResource(com.your.package.test.R.raw.test_file);
