Question

I'm using Robolectric, and I'm getting the following error when creating an Activity. I'm using the 2.3-Snapshot - androidTestCompile('org.robolectric:robolectric:2.3-SNAPSHOT')

android.view.InflateException: XML file jar:/Users/user/.m2/repository/org/robolectric/android-all/4.3_r2-robolectric-0/android-all-4.3_r2-robolectric-0.jar!/res/layout/screen_action_bar.xml line #-1 (sorry, not yet implemented): Error inflating class <unknown>

I see this github issue is open, but it's supposedly a Windows issue. I'm running on a Mac. I opened a separate issue.

My test is as follows. It happens anytime I use the activity generation create() method:

@Config(emulateSdk = 18)
public class LoginActivityTest extends BaseRobolectricTest {

    private LoginActivity activity;

    @Before
    public void setup() {
        super.setup();
        activity = Robolectric.buildActivity(LoginActivity.class).create().get();
    }
}
Was it helpful?

Solution

EDIT (New Response):

The issue was traced to an issue when setting a color as the android:icon in the ActionBar. I ended up using https://stackoverflow.com/a/13705280/413254.

See the thread over on github - https://github.com/robolectric/robolectric/issues/1053 for more context.

Old Response:

I was able to fix the issue by adding 

<item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>

to my theme file. However this removes the ActionBar title... which is not what I want. I suspect it's an issue with styling the ActionBar. I'll report back with my findings.
