Suggestion: include note to add `assembleDebugAndroidTest` to Gradle Runner

[mikemee]

TL;DR: Please add a note that assembleDebugAndroidTest needs to be added to Gradle Runner for this step to work.

As a new user, I banged my head against this for a while.

Essentially my flow was:

• use all the default stuff after adding a pre-existing Android project
• installed the gradle-unit-test step -> worked as expected (except I can't find the error logs when it fails)
• installed the virtual-device-testing-for-android step, switched it to instrumentation

Then I kept getting an error:

Issue with TestApkPath: parameter not specified

After much head banging and many test runs, in digging around the archives I found the suggestion to add this to the Gradle Runner step:

assembleDebugAndroidTest

So I did that, and magic happened!

I.e. my Gradle Runner config is now:

- gradle-runner:
    inputs:
    - gradle_file: "$GRADLE_BUILD_FILE_PATH"
    - gradle_task: assembleDebug assembleDebugAndroidTest
    - gradlew_path: "$GRADLEW_PATH"
