title: enabling Robotium in Android
body: <p>I recently decided to switch from Eclipse to Android Studio. While i was able to import my android project, i keep having problems setting up and transfering my unit tests. For testing purposes i made a directory in src folder (java folder and test package). For enabling robotium i followed another stack topic by adding <code>androidTestCompile 'com.jayway.android.robotium:robotium-solo:5.2.1'</code>. Eventually i added my test java file from Eclipse. And when i try to run tests, i keep getting "Cannot resolve symbol Solo".</p>
  
  <p>I have little understanding about how AS and gradle works, so probably i am missing something else.
  The contents of my build.gradle file:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
  
  android {
      compileSdkVersion 21
      buildToolsVersion "21.1.2"
  
      defaultConfig {
          applicationId "com.colormindapps.work_rest__scheduler"
          minSdkVersion 8
          targetSdkVersion 21
          testApplicationId "com.colormindapps.work_rest__scheduler.test"
          testInstrumentationRunner "android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner"
      }
  
      buildTypes {
          release {
              minifyEnabled false
              proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.txt'
          }
      }
      sourceSets {
          main {
              java.srcDirs = ['src/main/java', 'src/tests/java']
          }
      }
  }
  
  dependencies {
      androidTestCompile 'com.jayway.android.robotium:robotium-solo:5.2.1'
      compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:19.0.+'
      compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:19.0.+'
  
  }
  </code></pre>
