When a discovery path is specified in Robolectric @config it will throw a Null pointer exception
This was my first time trying to work with Robolectric. I have read all the documentation on the internet and I have prepared below test code to get started. Since I was studying the code I took advantage of these resources =>
https://github.com/codepath/android_guides/wiki/Robolectric-Installation-for-Unit-Testing
https://github.com/codepath/android_guides/wiki/Android-Unit-and-Integration-testing
http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/Robolectric/article.html
@RunWith( RobolectricTestRunner.class )
@Config( constants = BuildConfig.class, sdk = 21, manifest = "src/main/AndroidManifest.xml" )
public class RemovePeriodTest {
@Before
public void setUp() throws Exception {
}
@Test
public void testCheckRemoveButtonControl() throws Exception {
daySettingsActivity = Robolectric.buildActivity( DaySettingsActivity.class ).create().get();
ListView l = ( ListView ) daySettingsActivity.findViewById( R.id.settings_page );
assertNotNull( "test", l );
}
@After
public void tearDown() throws Exception {
}
}
It throws below error.

Since I can't point to the manifest file that seems below, it throws this error =>
java.lang.IllegalStateException: You need to use a Theme.AppCompat theme (or descendant) with this activity.
This is the code it seems when no manifest path is specified
@RunWith( RobolectricTestRunner.class )
@Config( constants = BuildConfig.class, sdk = 18, manifest = Config.NONE )
public class RemovePeriodTest {
