" summary

Asserts that views can be unit tested on the JVM without instrumentation by building a tiny team‑ranking (tea) app and exercising UI logic with Robolectric and ActivityScenario and FragmentScenario while replacing dependencies via Koin injection. Tests mock the ViewModel, verify that the FAB click invokes addButtonClick, check that LiveData navigation events emit and that fragments and activities launch cleanly, and report that the approach works reliably and runs fast.
