Issue
I'm attempting to set up Dagger in my Espresso instrumentation tests in order to mock out calls to external resources (RESTful services in this case). The pattern I followed in Robolectric for my unit testing was to extend my production Application class and override the Dagger modules with test modules which will return mocks. I'm attempting to do the same thing here, but I'm getting a ClassCastException in my Espresso tests when I try to cast the application to my custom application.
Here is my set up thus far:
Production
Under app/src/main/java/com/mypackage/injection I have:
MyCustomApplication
package com.mypackage.injection;
import android.app.Application;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import dagger.ObjectGraph;
public class MyCustomApplication extends Application {
protected ObjectGraph graph;
@Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
graph = ObjectGraph.create(getModules().toArray());
}
protected List<Object> getModules() {
List<Object> modules = new ArrayList<Object>();
modules.add(new AndroidModule(this));
modules.add(new RemoteResourcesModule(this));
modules.add(new MyCustomModule());
return modules;
}
public void inject(Object object) {
graph.inject(object);
}
}
Which I use in the following manner:
BaseActivity
package com.mypackage.injection.views;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import com.mypackage.injection.MyCustomApplication;
public abstract class MyCustomBaseActivity extends Activity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
((MyCustomApplication)getApplication()).inject(this);
}
}
Activity under test
package com.mypackage.views.mydomain;
// imports snipped for bevity
public class MyActivity extends MyBaseActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
//snip
}
}
Espresso Setup
Under app/src/androidTest/java/com/mypackage/injection I have:
MyCustomEspressoApplication
package com.mypackage.injection;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import dagger.ObjectGraph;
public class MyCustomEspressoApplication extends MyCustomApplication {
private AndroidModule androidModule;
private MyCustomModule myCustomModule;
private EspressoRemoteResourcesModule espressoRemoteResourcesModule;
@Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
graph = ObjectGraph.create(getModules().toArray());
}
protected List<Object> getModules() {
List<Object> modules = new ArrayList<Object>();
modules.add(getAndroidModule());
modules.add(getEspressoRemoteResourcesModule());
modules.add(getMyCustomModule());
return modules;
}
public void inject(Object object) {
graph.inject(object);
}
public AndroidModule getAndroidModule() {
if (this.androidModule == null) {
this.androidModule = new AndroidModule(this);
}
return this.androidModule;
}
public MyCustomModule getMyCustomModule() {
if (this.myCustomModule == null) {
this.myCustomModule = new MyCustomModule();
}
return this.myCustomModule;
}
public EspressoRemoteResourcesModule getEspressoRemoteResourcesModule() {
if (this.espressoRemoteResourcesModule == null) {
this.espressoRemoteResourcesModule = new EspressoRemoteResourcesModule();
}
return this.espressoRemoteResourcesModule;
}
}
My Espresso test, under app/src/androidTest/com/mypackage/espresso:
package com.mypackage.espresso;
// imports snipped for brevity
@RunWith(AndroidJUnit4.class)
@LargeTest
public class MyActivityTest extends ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2<MyActivity>{
private MyActivity myActivity;
public MyActivityTest() {
super(MyActivity.class);
}
@Before
public void setUp() throws Exception {
super.setUp();
injectInstrumentation(InstrumentationRegistry.getInstrumentation());
myActivity = getActivity();
}
@After
public void tearDown() throws Exception {
super.tearDown();
}
@Test
public void testWhenTheActionBarButtonIsPressedThenThePlacesAreListed() {
//The next line is where the runtime exception occurs.
MyCustomEspressoApplication app = (MyCustomEspressoApplication)getInstrumentation().getTargetContext().getApplicationContext();
//I've also tried getActivity().getApplication() and
// getActivity.getApplicationContext() with the same results
//snip
}
}
My AndroidManifest.xml
(I've seen lots of answers regarding the ClassCastException in custom Application classes before, and most of them point to a missing "android:name" property on the Application node. I'm pasting this here to show that this is not the case as far as I can tell.)

I've read through the Espresso and Dagger docs and searched through issues on Github to no avail. I'd appreciate any help anyone can provide. Thanks in advance.
Edit #1
I followed Daniel's suggestion to extend the test runner and checkout the VerifyError, and got the following stack trace:

This pointed me at Mockito. I was missing the necessary mockito and dexmaker libraries.
I updated my dependencies to:
androidTestCompile 'org.mockito:mockito-core:1.10.19'
androidTestCompile 'com.google.dexmaker:dexmaker:1.2'
androidTestCompile ('com.google.dexmaker:dexmaker-mockito:1.2') {
exclude module: 'hamcrest-core'
exclude module: 'mockito-core'
}
androidTestCompile('com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.0') {
exclude group: 'javax.inject'
}
I also overrode MyCustomModule, which needed to include EspressoRemoteResourcesModule. Once I did this things started working.
Solution
With a custom instrumentation runner, you can override newApplication and have it instantiate something other than the default application from the manifest.
public class MyRunner extends AndroidJUnitRunner {
@Override
public Application newApplication(ClassLoader cl, String className, Context context)
throws Exception {
return super.newApplication(cl, MyCustomEspressoApplication.class.getName(), context);
}
}
Be sure to update testInstrumentationRunner with your custom runner's name.
