Delete mockable android jar in Android

Question

In my Android project in Android Studio 2.1 there is a mockable-android-23.jar that is of about 22 MB size.

Is it safe to delete it?

Answer 1

The mockable-android-23.jar file is generated by the mockableAndroidJar Gradle Task which is run as part of the test Gradle Task.

The file is useful to you if you have unit tests in your project in which you're mocking Android classes (by means of the Mockito framework). If this not the case for you, then yes it is safe for you to delete the file.

Answer 2

If you are not using any object related to mockable-android-23.jar, delete the jar file is safe.
