Android: '-androidTest.apk' seems to get appended to a valid apk path

[yamiscott]

Description

Using Detox 8, if I set up an android build and get the detox build to successfully create the apk I need. Then set package json configuration for the android test to point at this apk and run detox test. Detox errors looking for the apk as it adds '-androidTest.apk' to the end of the path (stripping the existing .apk extension), resulting in never being able to run tests against that file.

apk file path (excluding personal path elements):

/Users/[**REDACTED**]/android/app/build/outputs/apk/androidTest/debug/app-debug-androidTest.apk

package.json config:

"android.emu.debug": {
    "binaryPath": "android/app/build/outputs/apk/androidTest/debug/app-debug-androidTest.apk",
    "build": "cd android && ./gradlew assembleAndroidTest -DtestBuildType=debug && cd ..",
    "type": "android.emulator",
    "name": "Nexus_4_Tester_"
  }

error:

'/Users/[**REDACTED**]/android/app/build/outputs/apk/androidTest/debug/androidTest/app-debug-androidTest-androidTest.apk' could not be found, did you run './gradlew assembleAndroidTest' ?

The problem is inside APKPath.js line 23

const testApkPath = path.join(tempPath.join(path.sep), 'androidTest', flavorDimensionsPath, buildType, `${originalApkPathObj.name}-androidTest${originalApkPathObj.ext}`);

As you can see (well you can if you head into the file), it splits on the last '-' and grabs the extension, then drops the 'variant' assuming it to be '-debug' or '-release', but without flavours, this isn't the case with a standard project.

It then rebuilds the path assuming the path is a flavoured build. Then finally it blanket adds a -androidTest on the end. Resulting in the error I'm seeing.

Steps to Reproduce

Basically follow the tutorial.

• install detox 8
• update gradle tools to 3+
• setup your android project with the androidTest flavour

Hi

Run this and try :
cd android && ./gradlew assembleDebug assembleAndroidTest -DtestBuildType=debug && cd ..

once succeed then check apk at android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk

Then run following
detox build --configuration android.emu.debug && detox test --configuration android.emu.debug

Node : this is for debug build

Following is my version:
xcode : 9.4.0
node: v10.6.0
Detox: v8.0.0
react-native-cli: 2.0.1
react-native: 0.53.3
Gradle : 3+

Hi Team,

When you want to test on debug build which is not placed under androidTest folder then Detox search by default under androidTest folder rather than given binary path. This is an issue I am facing.

Error :

'/Users/user.kumar/Projects/demoProject/demo-mobile/android/app/build/outputs/androidTest/6.93Universal/debug/my.project-universal-debug-androidTest.apk' could not be found, did you run './gradlew assembleAndroidTest' ?

package.json entry:
"binaryPath": "android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/my.project-6.93-universal-debug.apk",

@yamiscott Any workaround till this get fix?

[neerajkumar-lad]

Hi

Just want to update you that I have changed following in APKPath.js at line no 22

const testApkPath = path.join(tempPath.join(path.sep), "apk", buildType, ${originalApkPathObj.name}${originalApkPathObj.ext});`

And following is the binarypath in package.json

"binaryPath": "android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/my.project-universal-debug.apk",
