Robolectric - Android Unit Testing Framework

Robolectric is the industry-standard unit testing framework for Android. With Robolectric, your tests run in a simulated Android environment inside a JVM, without the overhead and flakiness of an emulator. Robolectric tests routinely run 10x faster than those on cold-started emulators. Robolectric supports running unit tests for 16 different versions of Android, ranging from Jelly Bean (API level 16) to SV2 (API level 32).

Unlike traditional emulator-based Android tests, Robolectric tests run inside a sandbox which allows the Android environment to be precisely configured to the desired conditions for each test, isolates each test from its neighbors, and extends the Android framework with test APIs which provide minute control over the Android framework’s behavior and visibility of state for assertions.
