Any recommendations for open-source dashboards that show test results and test history? Allure Report maybe? It hasn't been updated in 6 months and I'm struggling to generate reports for instrumented tests.

Am I punished by 3L0n if I recommend every #AndroidDev to move to another, more open, social network? Follow me here: https://t.co/OEdo4lGk1f

Thanks to @arkann1985 for all the help with the API. We had a lot of `fun` with the Stub and MutableStub classes.

Would you like to see more opinionated fakes? What APIs would benefit from having a better testing story?

We released a new testing library! 🔬 It's a bit niche because it's for Health Connect but we'd love to hear your feedback whether you use it or not because we're being opinionated on *how* you should test your code. Docs with examples:

Watch out for @iberia's scam! I requested a change for a "flexible" @iberiaexpress ticket and they waived the "penalty", however the rate they force on you is 3 times the one published on the website.
