App is not opening while running test case in detox after react native 0.68 upgrade

[CHANDRU-WMH]

What happened?

Detox builds and test case runs successfully in ios but in android it is not working getting the below error. While downgrading to react native 0.67 test cases are working in android.

What was the expected behaviour?

Hey @CHANDRU-WMH, thanks for the report. Can you please provide us the device logs and the detox logs from the failing run? Otherwise, it will be very hard to investigate this issue.

@asafkorem Thanks for the reply, attached the logs.

@CHANDRU-WMH Based on the logs, it seems that the crash is caused by a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError exception, which indicates that the class com.reactnativecommunity.art.ARTPackage could not be found at runtime. This issue might be caused by a missing dependency.

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Failed resolution of: Lcom/reactnativecommunity/art/ARTPackage

Please make sure you installed react-native-community/art correctly.

I don't think that this error is caused by Detox in any way. Is it working when running the app regularly?

This might be related to some change on React Native 0.68. If it happens locally, try to clean and rebuild your project.

Yea test cases work in android when I downgrade the native version to 0.67, facing this error only on rn 0.68.

I am facing same issue on react-native 0.71.4

Working on iOS but not launching on android

[CHANDRU-WMH]

@lmasneri I upgraded the flipper version in gradle.properties to FLIPPER_VERSION=0.171.1 and the app is launching now.

@CHANDRU-WMH I still can not launch the application using detox:

Error: a BeforeAll hook errored, process exiting: e2e/hooks.ts:7: Failed to run application on the device

HINT: Most likely, your main activity has crashed prematurely.

The e2e/hooks.ts:7 is device.launchApp()
