EditText.setError text not recognized

[GoogleCodeExporter]

My code uses the EditText.setError feature.  I have a test that induces an 
error, it shows on screen, but searchText can't detect it.  

EditText.setError uses something rarely used called a PopUpWindow.  I assume 
Robotium is incapable of recognizing PopUpWindow text.  

If you want to see Android's source for EditText, look here.  Look for the 
showError() method for the PopUpWindow code.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Thanks for this. Support for PopUpWindow text will be added in the next release.

This has been corrected in Robotium 3.0. Please note that 
finishOpenedActivities() replaces finalize().
