Issue: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Real screen element corresponding to shadow element ElementDescription

Question

I have an app in Google Play. In my last build Google showed me this issue:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Real screen element corresponding to shadow element ElementDescription{className=android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatTextView, resourceName=com.myappp.testapp:id/lab_separator, contentDescription=, componentType=TEXT_VIEW, inputType=NONE, isWebViewElement=false} not found.

I could not resolve this issue in the app. The view mentioned in the report works ok. Everything works as expected but I want to fix what was reported by Google.

As a member of the crawler team, I can confirm that this was a result of a regression in the crawler. The fix for this will be deployed in a day or two. Thank you for using Robo and reporting issues with it!
