@andrzejchm Sure, I'll make the requested documentation changes & rebase the PR. |
When using Roboelectric (or other unit testing framework for Android that does not set up a "real" Android environment), it's necessary to retrieve files based on the local file system of the machine on which the tests are run, rather than the virtual file system expected by the Android operating system. This is due to the fact that, when running these types of tests, most of the Android system is really just a set of mocks. As such, without this file parser, the "assets", "res", and other system-level file system paths are not set up and linked correctly, as the system calls that would normally provide this information are mocked.
