Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with the reported OkHttpClient.Builder().build() call in an Android unit test without Robolectric. Read AndroidLog.kt and PlatformRegistry.kt, the stack-trace entry points named in the report. Done means the test output no longer contains the silently thrown Android RuntimeException while the test still passes.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

bug

OKHttpVersion used : 5.2.0

Reproduction Steps

  • Create an empty Android project
  • Add OkHttp depdencies
// define a BOM and its version
implementation(platform("com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp-bom:5.2.0"))

// define any required OkHttp artifacts without version
implementation("com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp")
implementation("com.squareup.okhttp3:logging-interceptor")
  • In ExampleUnitTest, add this OkHttpClient.Builder().build() in the first line of addition_isCorrect.
class ExampleUnitTest {
    @Test
    fun addition_isCorrect() {
        OkHttpClient.Builder().build()
        assertEquals(4, 2 + 2)
    }
}
  • Run the test
  • The test passes but there's runtime exception being thrown silently that's causing a a lot of noise in the test output
Possibly running android unit test without robolectric
