javax.tools.ToolProvider could not be found in InlineByteBuddyMockMaker

See original GitHub issue

Hi guys

I’m encountering a crash when I run AndroidTest that contain mocking class cause the ByteBuddy didn’t found javax.tools.ToolProvider. I tried to reinstall JDK 8 but doesn’t work. It seems to be javax.tools.ToolProvider not existing in it.

Could you guys help me please?

Cheer,

You can achieve this by using com.linkedin.dexmaker:dexmaker-mockito-inline for APIs >= 28

On Android, the inline mock maker won’t work (neither will Mockk which uses the same approach as we do). It does not support the instrumentation API alltogether.

I do agree that the error message is misleading. Currently preparing a PR to improve this.
