Android client: Unit tests cannot run because of a deprecated library
When running any unit test that extends ACUnitTestBase, it fails during initialization part. Error:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to transform class with name com.activeandroid.Cache. Reason: cannot find android.support.v4.util.LruCache
(Full error at https://issues.openmrs.org/browse/AC-635)
Steps to reproduce
- Clone the latest master branch version
- Run a unit test (e.g. LoginPresenterTest)
- Observe the initialization error like above
Expected Outcome
We can run a unit test without encountering this initialization problem.
