Alô!
The action AndroidEmulatorRunner from ReactiveCircus have weird bindings.

Specifically, this doesn't compile

uses(
      name = "Android Tests",
      action = AndroidEmulatorRunner(
        apiLevel = 33,
        emulatorOptions = "-no-snapshot -no-audio -no-boot-anim",
        disableAnimations = true,
        script = "./gradlew connectedAndroidTest",
        target = "default",
      )
    )

As it becomes a private constructor,

And this compiles

action = AndroidEmulatorRunner(
        apiLevel = 33,
        emulatorOptions = "-no-snapshot -no-audio -no-boot-anim",
        disableAnimations = true,
        script = "./gradlew connectedAndroidTest",
      )

For some reason I don't know. I expected the first one and the second one to compile using the same constructor

I'm experimenting with it here

the target input is an enum, see:
• in the typings: https://github.com/ReactiveCircus/android-emulator-runner/blob/50d5b10c0167135fd356722acdfaaef2542f8f1b/action-types.yml#L4-L15
• IDE's hints (yes, AI gets it wrong by proposing a string!):

if you write AndroidEmulatorRunner.Target. , you'll get all options, including default available under the Default enum item

Ah, I'm the dum dum once again 😄

why you saw it as a private constructor initially - not sure, looks like a misleading error message to me, since I don't see any constructor that would match the initial signature
