resources are not accessible when running tests with JUnit test runner

[elliatab]

My test folder contains Robolectric and JUnit tests.
Some of those tests are fetching files from a resource folder located inside the test folder.
When running the test gradle task, the tests can use the files places in resource folder and everything works well.

The same tests fail to find the resource files when running with the JUnit test runner.

I'm not sure if this is an issue with the IDE plugin or with JCAndKSolutions' android-unit-test gradle plugin.
Is it related to JCAndKSolutions/android-unit-test#80 ?

When you say "resources", are you talking "res" or "resources"? The former would be caused by that issue you linked, which you can workaround by running gradle copyDebugTestResources after you change any of your resources. If it's the later, then you are looking at #4.

I was talking about "resources" folder so it's the later.
Thanks for pointing to #4 I will follow up with this thread.
