Is anybody running UI tests for Compose with Robolectric? I don't have much experience with the tool, but spinning the Android env is a pain in the butt. I've seen some articles online but I was wondering if that would be reliable and whether I will hit a wall two weeks in 😅

Use them and they’re generally reliable
But we use them mostly to verify click or user interactions, not as ui validation. We use paparazzi for that.

Thank you! Have you got any E2E test with Robolectric? Like some navigation tests?

No.I ensure we only test composables in isolation such as components rather than screens

So you wouldn't suggest Robolectric for E2E?
