Interestingly, the following also fails, where getTargetContext() is changed to getContext():
Context testContext = getInstrumentation().*getContext*(); PackageManager pm = testContext.getPackageManager(); int r = pm.checkPermission( Manifest.permission.AUTHENTICATE_ACCOUNTS, testContext.getPackageName()); assertEquals(PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED, r); // Add a fake account AccountManager accountManager = AccountManager.get(testContext); Account account = new Account("t...@test.com", "com.test"); boolean addedAccount = accountManager.*addAccountExplicitly*(account, "password", new Bundle()); What's weird is that the assert passes, yet addAccountExplicity still fails with java.lang.SecurityException: caller uid 10056 lacks any of android.permission.AUTHENTICATE_ACCOUNTS On Monday, January 5, 2015 10:05:22 PM UTC-5, Alex Humesky wrote: > > Correct, when I run the test (either through Android Studio or > connectedAndroidTest task), the app doesn't seem to have the permission, > and so trying to use the account manager fails.
