We found 6 flaky tests #31
Description
Hello, we are a group of researchers that investigate the occurrence of flaky tests in Android.
We voluntarily ran your GUI tests 12 times and found that some tests pass or fail non-deterministically, which characterizes them as flaky tests [1]. Below we list each flaky test we found, and its number of failures.
testPinVisibility- failed 3 times (stack trace)testDialogTitle- failed 3 times (stack trace)testDialogButtons- failed 3 times (stack trace)testPinContent- failed 1 time (stack trace)testPinTitle- failed 4 times stack trace
We ran these tests on a generic Android Emulator (AVD) with Android API version 28.
If you confirm this behavior, our suggestion is to add the @FlakyTest annotation on these tests. See https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/test/filters/FlakyTest.
If you wish for a repair proposal, please let us know.
Graciously,
Denini, Leopoldo and Marcelo.
