Thank you @nicolas-raoul. I'll surely update my progress regularly :)

Update: I have changed the deprecated RuntimeEnvironment.application to ApplicationProvider.getApplicationContext() in all the Robolectric test cases and optimised the imports accordingly. All the unit tests are showing "Passed" in Android Studio on running. I have pushed my changes here:
https://github.com/RitikaPahwa4444/apps-android-commons/tree/issue-4671_robolectric_application_deprecated
@madhurgupta10 could you please have a look and confirm if any other changes are required?

[nicolas-raoul]

@RitikaPahwa4444 I have not checked but would you mind sending a pull request? It is easier to comment on :-)
Thanks!
