Disable konfetti for instrumentation tests

[premnirmal]

Is there a way to do this accommodate this in to the library without explicitly disabling konfetti in instrumentation tests?

Sorry I have no idea what you precisely mean

[premnirmal]

When running instrumentation tests on Android, animations should be disabled. If you disable animations on your device via developer settings, app animations should be disabled. For example: the android progress bar does not spin when running instrumentation tests-this is correct implementation.

The konfetti animation still runs when animations are disabled, and it also runs in instrumentation tests. This suggests that the library isn't adhering to Android guidelines.

An application developer should not have to write code that manually disables the konfetti animation in tests, the library should do that automatically.

Does that make sense?

Ok, that makes sense. Konfetti currently implements a game-loop mechanism for updating the canvas. This is indeed running independent from the Animations of Android hence you're not able to turn them off, control the animation speed or by default disable instrumental tests.

I'll have to find out if support is available in the api of the platform to detect if the instrumental tests are running. If you have any pointers, any help is welcome.
