AndroidTests stopped building after adding androidx.fragment:fragment-testing dependency

Question

After I have added fragment-testing dependency to my project:

    // Testing dependencies
    espressoVersion = '3.2.0-beta01'
    testCoreVersion = '1.1.0'
    runnerVersion = '1.1.0'
    extJunitVersion = '1.1.0'
    testRulesVersion = '1.1.0'
    fragmentVersion = '1.1.0-alpha09'
    orchestratorVersion = '1.1.0'
    uiAutomatorVersion = '2.2.0'
    junitVersion = '4.12'
    mockitoVersion = '2.7.22'
    robolectricVersion = '4.2.1'
    liveDataTestingVersion = '1.1.0'
    androidArchCoreTestingVersion = '2.0.0'

androidTestImplementation("androidx.test.espresso:espresso-core:$rootProject.ext.espressoVersion")
androidTestImplementation "androidx.test:core:$rootProject.ext.testCoreVersion"
androidTestImplementation("androidx.test:runner:$rootProject.ext.runnerVersion")
androidTestImplementation "androidx.test.ext:junit:$rootProject.ext.extJunitVersion"
androidTestUtil ("androidx.test:orchestrator:$rootProject.ext.orchestratorVersion")
androidTestImplementation("androidx.test.espresso:espresso-intents:$rootProject.ext.espressoVersion")
implementation "androidx.test.espresso:espresso-idling-resource:$rootProject.ext.espressoVersion"
androidTestImplementation "androidx.test.uiautomator:uiautomator:$rootProject.ext.uiAutomatorVersion"
testImplementation "junit:junit:$rootProject.ext.junitVersion"
androidTestImplementation("androidx.test:rules:$rootProject.ext.testRulesVersion")
// required if you want to use Mockito for unit tests
testImplementation "org.mockito:mockito-core:$rootProject.ext.mockitoVersion"
// required if you want to use Mockito for Android tests
androidTestImplementation "org.mockito:mockito-android:$rootProject.ext.mockitoVersion"
testImplementation "org.robolectric:robolectric:$rootProject.ext.robolectricVersion"
testImplementation "org.robolectric:shadows-multidex:$rootProject.ext.robolectricVersion"
// LiveData Testing utility
testImplementation "com.jraska.livedata:testing:$rootProject.ext.liveDataTestingVersion"
testImplementation "androidx.arch.core:core-testing:$rootProject.ext.androidArchCoreTestingVersion"
// Once https://issuetracker.google.com/127986458 is fixed this can be testImplementation
implementation ("androidx.fragment:fragment-testing:$rootProject.ext.fragmentVersion")

when I try to build the androidTests it fails:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

Not sure how to handle this kind of conflicts... Does anyone have the same problem?

Answer 1

This is a quick solution:

implementation ("androidx.fragment:fragment-testing:1.1.0-beta01", {         
   exclude group: 'androidx.test', module: 'core'
})
