<Enhancement> Remove guava dependency #53

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Android APKs are limited to ~65000 java methods.

Espresso with its dependencies is just over 15000 methods. This may make it 
difficult for large projects to use. Guava alone is >12000 java methods.

A proper android test setup should separate the app under test to its own APK 
and its tests + test infra to another APK. There shouldn't be duplicate class 
definitions. This means there's technically room for 130k methods (65k in the 
app, 65k in the test apk).

Empirically this has not caused issues in large apps (eg: G+ and Docs use 
espresso).

Without evidence of a problem I'm not going to redupe the high quality code in 
guava.

Please ping me off line if you're encoutering actual issues.
