Record Espresso Test For Two Instantapp Modules

PROBLEM: An instantapp activity from one module (base) calls activity from another module (my_feature). Both should be tested using 'Record Espresso Test' in Android Studio. RESEAR

Solution 1:

As far as there is no movement on the bug, I've resulted with a workaround, using Appium. It can be integrated into Android Studio tests, though a parrallel Appium window should be kept open in your system.

Appium is a higher-level testing framework on base of Selenium Web Driver. So it doesn't use Android Project Resources like Espresso and allows cross-feature testing. Moreover it allows cross-app testing and testing your app integractions with Android System messaging, settings, power, cellular signal and other features.

Here is a detailed instruction on how to setup Appium with Android Studio testing.
