Hi,

I am currently struggling to link an Android Application project to another 
Android Application project used for running Robotium black-box tests.


*Tools*

   - gradle:1.10
   - Android Development Tools:22.3.0.v201310242005-887826
   - eclipse: 20140224-0627 (Kepler)


*Project setup*

*MainAppProject*

   - contains the actual app that should be tested
   - dependencies: *androidannotations:2.7.1*, Android support lib:19.0.1


*TestProject*

   - uses Robotium for black-box testing *MainAppProject*
   - dependencies: *robotium-solo:5.0.1*, Android support lib:19.0.1, 
   *MainAppProject*



*Issue*

In Eclipse, running the black-box tests in *TestProject* works fine after 
simply adding *MainAppProject* as a dependency to the build path through 
*Properties 
> Java Build Path > Projects*.
However, when running on command line (e.g. using *gradle assembleDebug* or 
any other build command), building will fail because the packages and 
classes from *MainAppProject* can not be found:

                                                                        ^
6 errors
:TestProject:compileDebugJava FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':TestProject:compileDebugJava'.
> Compilation failed; see the compiler error output for details.


*Approaches I have tried*

*Using 'android-library' instead of 'android' as a plugin in 
TestProject/build.gradle*

 This will result in a failure when building on command line: *Could not 
find method buildTypes() for arguments 
[build_ub9n2bjgrgcslb90jgp27kmep$_run_closure2_closure8@634c803d] on 
project ':TestProject'.*


*Adding all MainProject source directories to **TestProject/build.gradle, 
e.g.: sourceSets.main.java.srcDirs = ['src', '../MainAppProject/src']*

This will result in the same error output as when not including the 
additional source paths.


Any piece of information is appreciated, thanks in advance!!
