whether supported in espresso?)

Do you have an animation running that may keep the Ui Thread busy?

I got “Window animation scale”, “Transition animation scale”, 
“Animator duration scale” turned off but still getting this.

Same problem here when trying to do a "perform(click())", goes into another 
activity after click happens but hangs thinking the condition was never met.

I think it's the indeterminate progress bar animation that's causing the hang
