How to test ListView in Android?

Testing a ListView in Android involves several approaches to ensure the UI behaves as expected. You can use Espresso for UI testing, Robolectric for unit tests, or even Mockito to mock data. Below is a simple example highlighting how to test a ListView using Espresso framework.


            Espresso.onView(withId(R.id.my_list_view))
                .check(matches(isDisplayed()));
                
            // Assuming you have some data in the ListView
            Espresso.onView(withId(R.id.my_list_view))
                .perform(RecyclerViewActions.scrollToPosition(5));
                
            Espresso.onView(withId(R.id.my_list_view))
                .check(matches(hasDescendant(withText("Item 5"))));
