BUILD FAILED in 5s

It seems current flutter create is using kotlin but this guide is for java.

@dnfield

@dnfield @digiter

We should have docs for both Kotlin and Java. It's still possible to flutter create a Java app with the right flags.

Is it possible to automatically add these files when flutter build/run/drive an e2e test?

What should be the code/setup for Kotlin?

@yshean

@yshean did you figure it out?

I had the same problem and tried to fix it like this, but couldn't make it work.

Changing the path with the MainActivityTest.java from:
app/src/androidTest/java/com/example/myappto app/src/androidTest/kotlin/com/example/myapp
Changing the MainActivityTest.java to MainActivityTest.kt
Entering the following code in MainActivityTest.kt:

package com.example.myapp

import androidx.test.rule.ActivityTestRule
import dev.flutter.plugins.integration_test.FlutterTestRunner
import org.junit.Rule
import org.junit.runner.RunWith

@RunWith(FlutterTestRunner::class)
class MainActivityTest {
    @get:Rule
    val rule = ActivityTestRule(MainActivity::class.java, true, false)
}

I have no idea about Kotlin, so maybe someone could verify if this is at least the right direction?

@novas1r1

@novas1r1 @CareF Did you find any solutions for this? I am getting the same issue trying to do Android device testing and cant generate androidTestApk for FirebaseTestLab

@novas1r1

@novas1r1 Did you ensure the line at the top of your MainActivityTest.java ==> package com.example.myapp is changed to your app package id?

@Abdi-adan

@Abdi-adan for me it worked the way I provided it in my answer above. Yes, you need to change the first line to your package name.

@novas1r1

I have done the exact same, but it does not find my tests nor any errors.
