please check this code. as I am trying to add the repository with @BindValue. the hilt is throwing error as follows.

@HiltAndroidTest
@UninstallModules(AppModule::class)
@RunWith(AndroidJUnit4::class)
class RandomUserListFragmentTest {
    @get:Rule
    val hiltRule = HiltAndroidRule(this)

 @Inject
    lateinit var glideRequestManager: RequestManager

    @BindValue
    @JvmField  val repository: RandomUserRepositoryImplTest = mock()

  @Before
    fun launchFragment() {
        hiltRule.inject()
        ActivityScenario.launch(RandomUserActivity::class.java)
    }


   @Test
    fun verifyTheRecyclerViewHasData(){
        Espresso.onView(ViewMatchers.withId(R.id.recyclerView)).check { view, noViewFoundException ->
            if (noViewFoundException != null) {
                throw noViewFoundException
            }

            val recyclerView = view as RecyclerView
            Assert.assertEquals(3, recyclerView.adapter?.itemCount)
        }
    }
}

@Module
@TestInstallIn(
    components = [SingletonComponent::class],
    replaces = [AppModule::class]
)
object FakeAppModuleTest {
    @Provides
    @Singleton
    fun initGlide(@ApplicationContext appContext: Context): RequestManager = Glide.with(appContext)
        .setDefaultRequestOptions(
            RequestOptions()
                .centerInside()
                .error(R.drawable.ic_user)
        )
}

getting errors like

Thank you so much @bcorso

@sheiapp the entry point from the error message is coming from a component in RandomUserActivityTest, but the test in your snippet is RandomUserListFragmentTest. You will have to add the bindings to that test as well (though, if you end up doing this for every test you should also look into @TestInstallIn).

in the above solution, I saw you suggest to do a field injection but the actual injection is happening in ViewModel. will it make sense!.

It should be fine to inject RandomUserRepositoryImplTest into your test since the test is providing the binding into the SingletonComponent.
