Robolectric with Google API - AnnotationFormatError
I tried to set up robolectric to work with my project made with google API target, but can't get it to work.
I've tried various approaches and isolated the problem using deckard-gradle :
When I load the deckard project everything works fine and the sample test succeeds. However, when I change the compileSdk parameter in my gradle file for Google Inc .: Google API: 19 I get this AnnotationFormatError when running the test:

Here are some relevant snippets from my setup:

}
}
My testing class:
@Config(manifest = "./src/main/AndroidManifest.xml", emulateSdk = 18)
@RunWith(RobolectricTestRunner.class)
public class DeckardActivityRobolectricTest {
@Test
public void testSomething() throws Exception {
Activity activity = Robolectric.buildActivity(DeckardActivity.class).create().get();
assertTrue(activity != null);
}
}
I also followed robolectric's instructions to install the maps and support library into my local maven repository.
Any ideas what might be wrong with my setup?

For various reasons, I have abandoned the above approach in favor of keeping my Robolectric tests in a Gradle submodule. You can find the blog post I wrote about why I moved in this direction and a fork of the deckard-gradle project that shows you how here , Since Robolectric only supports SDK version 18 and below, this project also has a modified RobolectricTestRunner which makes it not require annotation to emulate a lower SDK version.
