SQLiteCantOpenDatabaseException: unknown error (code 14): Could not open database (Only when unit testing the app)

So I have recently added persistence in my application and I get this error, the interesting part though is that the application runs fine even persists objects retrieves them and everything but when running unit test I get the error written above.

Here are the interesting parts of my app

Manifest permissions:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission." />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PROFILE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS" />

Here is the gradle config defailtConfig block

 compileSdkVersion 24
    buildToolsVersion '25.0.0'


    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "mehungry.com.myapplicationnavigationdawerdemo"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
        minSdkVersion 22
        targetSdkVersion 23
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        multiDexEnabled = true

        jackOptions {
            enabled true
        }
    }

My DatabaseHelper :

import android.content.Context;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteOpenHelper;
import android.util.Log;

public class DatabaseHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper {

    public static final int DATABASE_VERSION = 2;
    public static final String DATABASE_NAME = "MeHungryApp.db";

    private SQLiteDatabase database;

    private final Context context;

    public DatabaseHelper(Context context) {
        super(context, DATABASE_NAME, null, DATABASE_VERSION);
        this.context = context;
    }

    @Override
    public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
        db.execSQL(CreateStatments.ATABLE);
        db.execSQL(CreateStatments.BTABLE);
        db.execSQL(CreateStatments.CTABLE);

        db.execSQL(CreateStatments.DTABLE);
        db.execSQL(CreateStatments.ETABLE);
        db.execSQL(CreateStatments.FTABLE);
        db.execSQL(CreateStatments.GTABLE);
    }

    @Override
    public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
        Log.w(DatabaseHelper.class.getName(),
                "Upgrading database from version " + oldVersion + " to "
                        + newVersion + ", which will destroy all old data");
        db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + ATableDef.TABLE_NAME);
        db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + BTableDef.TABLE_NAME);
        db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + CTableDef.TABLE_NAME);
        db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + DTableDef.TABLE_NAME);
        db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + ETableDef.TABLE_NAME);
        db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + FTableDef.TABLE_NAME);
        db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + GTableDef.TABLE_NAME);

        onCreate(db);
    }

}

My database Test class(doing nothing for now)

@RunWith(AndroidJUnit4.class)
@LargeTest
public class MealEntityPersistenceTest {

private SQLiteDatabase database;
private DatabaseHelper databaseHelper;

public MealEntityPersistenceTest() {

}

@Before
public void setUp() {
    databaseHelper = new 
DatabaseHelper(InstrumentationRegistry.getContext());
    database = databaseHelper.getWritableDatabase();
}


@Test
public void testInsertRecipe() {
}


}

And here is what I ger in the Android Monitor

I am getting desperate since I have seen tons of similar issues but nothing helped me, so any kind of direction or wild guess will be greatly appreciated.

So after some investigation I figured out that the problem lies in the database path

when in test :

/data/data/mehungry.com.myapplicationnavigationdawerdemo.test/databases/MeHungryApp.db

when running whole application:

/data/data/mehungry.com.myapplicationnavigationdawerdemo/databases/MeHungryApp.db

This was the problem, this inconsistency was fixed for me when I did change my DatabaseHelper constructor invocation

from this :

databaseHelper = new DatabaseHelper(InstrumentationRegistry.getContext());

to this :

databaseHelper = new DatabaseHelper(InstrumentationRegistry.getTargetContext());

Hope it might help somebody at somepoint.
