Robolectric - screen_action_bar.xml line # -1 (sorry, not yet implemented): Error inflating class <unknown>
I use Robolectric, and when creating an Activity I get the following error. I use 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

org.gradle.api.internal.tasks.testing.worker.TestWorker.processTestClass(TestWorker.java:105) I see that the github problem is open, but it is supposedly a problem with Windows. I work on a mac. I opened a separate question .
My test is as follows. This happens anytime when I use the create() activity generation 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(); } } EDIT (new answer) :
The problem was related to the problem when setting the color as android:icon in ActionBar. Check out the thread on github - https://github.com/robolectric/robolectric/issues/1053 for my workaround.
Old answer :
I managed to fix the problem by adding
<item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item> to the theme file. However, this removes the ActionBar header ... this is not what I want. I suspect this is a problem with the design of the ActionBar. I will talk about my findings.
