Add Module support

[wezley98]

We have divided our androidTests by Module, but it seems this plugin doesn't support any module without:

id("com.android.application") plugin

I think the issue is :

AppExtension appExtension = (AppExtension) project.getExtensions().getByName("android");

browserstack-gradle-plugin/src/main/java/com/browserstack/gradle/BrowserStackPlugin.java

Line 18 in 3629f0a

AppExtension appExtension = (AppExtension) project.getExtensions().getByName("android");

The error we get back when syncing is:

Caused by: org.gradle.api.plugins.InvalidPluginException: An exception occurred applying plugin request [id: 'com.browserstack.gradle']
Caused by: org.gradle.api.internal.plugins.PluginApplicationException: Failed to apply plugin 'com.browserstack.gradle'
Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: com.android.build.gradle.LibraryExtension_Decorated cannot be cast to com.android.build.gradle.AppExtension

Would it be possible to add module support please, with modules using the id("com.android.library") plugin?

@wezley98 Currently, BrowserStack does not support Espresso testing with multiple modules and, we have made a note of this as a feature request.

We're also facing this issue. Is there any news about support for multi-module testing?

Hey @bruno-garces
Our engineering team is planning to introduce this feature in the first half of the year. They would also like to get on a call with you to understand your use case better. I would request you to reach out to support@browserstack.com so that we can schedule a call to understand your use case.

Hello, any update on this?
Our UI code is in a library module rather than the app module, so it make sense to have the UI tests there. Running them locally with connectedAndroidTest works fine, but this plugin doesn't seem to find them.
Thanks!

Hello,
I'm facing this issue when trying to configure a module's tests.
Any progress on that?
Thanks.

Hello,

I'm facing the issue with multiple modules, I saw that the multimodule app is supported by browserstack already(#35 (comment)), and I would like to ask if the plugin supports it as well the new apis mentioned in the documentation? If yes, can someone show me some docs in order to use the gradle tasks? Otherwise do we have to create our own script in order to use the new apis?

Thanks.

I managed to get it working by configuring the task below:

tasks.findByName("executeDebugTestsOnBrowserstack")?.configure<EspressoTask> {
    testAPKPath = "path to test suite.apk"
    mainAPKPath = "path APP.apk"
}
