Given When Then concept on your project
Spek is a formidable behavior-driven testing framework designed for Kotlin. With Spek, we can quickly implement a BDD (Behaviour Driven Development) environment that allows you to easily define your tests in a clear, understandable, and human-readable way.
At this point, we can learn how we create an Android unit test using Spek. Hopefully, this can help developers who may not be comfortable with testing.
But before we even begin, we have a problem. Spek runs well with JUnit5 and Android is stuck on JUnit4. We need another library.
This is what we’ll use:
- Android JUnit 5
- Spek Framework version 2
Step 1 — Setup JUnit5

Kotlin linter that can improve our code
When we talk about lint, many developers think it is related to the style guide. Well, this is not only that.
Linting is the process of analyzing code for potential errors.
As an Android developer, we are using Kotlin language, but is our code clean and comfortable to read? Maybe there are still many of us who are still affected by the Java Code Style or some studying the Kotlin Style Guide.
Ktlint can be our assistant, a linter made to be the Kotlin writing standard format with simplicity, extensibility, and have an active community. So how can we use…
Convert from Groovy to Kotlin script
It has been a long time since we wrote a Gradle with a script called Groovy, but finally, there is something new 😮.
Kotlin DSL comes with autocomplete, navigation to resource, checking error at compile time and make code readable. How to use Kotlin script on Gradle? Just follow the steps.
FYI, when writing this I use
com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.0and on gradle-wrapper5.4.1
