Test code

@RunWith(AndroidJUnit4::class)
internal class NavigationTest {
    @get:Rule(order = 0)
    val koinTestRule = KoinTestRule(
        modules = listOf(
            MyAppModule().module,
        ),
    )

    @get:Rule(order = 1)
    val composeTestRule = createAndroidComposeRule<MainActivity>()

    @Test
    fun navigationTest() {
        composeTestRule
            .onNodeWithTag(
                testTag = "screen_home",
            )
            .assertIsDisplayed()
        composeTestRule.waitUntil {
            composeTestRule
                .onNodeWithContentDescription(
                    "Settings",
                )
                .isDisplayed()
        }
 
        // This click action is throwing the exception. It navigates to Settings screen on clicking.
        composeTestRule

Got it. Thank you

Hi @Abhimanyu.
this can be fixed if we use createComposeRule(StandardTestDispatcher()) instead of createAndroidComposeRuleMainActivity()

Also make sure to launch the MainActivity using ActivityScenerio in the @ Before block of the test.

I tried this approach, and it works when running a single test.
However, I’m getting the following error when I run multiple tests in the same file.

java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException

Can you please send the full error?
