Hi @gitanshubatra239 ,

  1. This seems like a bug in your testing framework.
  2. The Braze instance cannot be instantiated in production use cases with a mocked context.
  3. (Try ensuring that your mock returns a context for getApplicationContext() since we call that internally) 👍🏽

Does Braze.getInstance() using getBrazeLogTag() internally? As, it is causing me issues while mocking Braze.getInstance()
