unit testing: How to resolve Bad ComponentName while traversing activity parent metadata?

samedi 6 février 2016

I am writing an unit test for a class, which has call to addParentStack(XActivity.class). XActivity is declared at manifest and has

<meta-data
                android:name="android.support.PARENT_ACTIVITY"
                android:value="y.YActivity" />.

YActivity is under another module. Code runs fine. But while running Unit test i am getting error as

Bad ComponentName while traversing activity parent metadata

 java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: android.content.pm.PackageManager$NameNotFoundException: testclass/YActivity

So, what i have to do extra to run this unit test?
