Description

Description

I have a function testing for whether the active network is roaming using either NetworkCapabilities#hasCapability or NetworkInfo#isRoaming. I cannot find a way to test either mechanism.

Robolectric & Android Version

Robolectric 4.0 Android Lollipop/Marshmallow.

Research direction
Investigate how Robolectric shadows the NetworkCapabilities and NetworkInfo classes. Likely, new shadow methods need to be added to ShadowNetworkCapabilities and ShadowNetworkInfo. Look at existing shadow implementations for similar methods (e.g., hasCapability). Ensure tests are written for the new shadow behavior.
