/**
* Signifies that a test should not be run under Android. This annotation is respected only by our
* Google-internal Android suite generators. Note that those generators also suppress any test
* annotated with MediumTest or LargeTest.
*
*
*
Why use a custom annotation instead of {@code android.test.suitebuilder.annotation.Suppress}?
* I'm not completely sure that this is the right choice, but it has various advantages:
*
*
* - An annotation named just "Suppress" might someday be treated by a non-Android tool as a
* suppression. This would follow the precedent of many of our annotation processors, which
* look for any annotation named, e.g., "GwtIncompatible," regardless of package.
*
- An annotation named just "Suppress" might suggest to users that the test is suppressed
* under all environments. We could fight this by fully qualifying the annotation, but the
* result will be verbose and attention-grabbing.
*
- We need to be careful about how we suppress {@code suite()} methods in {@code common.io}.
* The generated suite for {@code FooTest} ends up containing {@code FooTest} itself plus some
* other tests. We want to exclude the other tests (which Android can't handle) while
* continuing to run {@code FooTest} itself. This is exactly what happens with {@code
* AndroidIncompatible}. But I'm not sure what would happen if we annotated the {@code
* suite()} method with {@code Suppress}. Would {@code FooTest} itself be suppressed, too?
*
- In at least one case, a use of {@code sun.misc.FpUtils}, the test will not even
* compile against Android. Now, this might be an artifact of our build system, one
* that we could probably work around. Or we could manually strip the test from open-source
* Guava while continuing to run it internally, as we do with many other tests. This would
* suffice because we our Android users and tests are using the open-source version, which
* would no longer have the problematic test. But why bother when we can instead strip it with
* a more precisely named annotation?
*
- While a dependency on Android ought to be easy if it's for annotations only, it will
* probably require adding the dep to various ACLs, license files, and Proguard
* configurations, and there's always the potential that something will go wrong. It
* probably won't, since the deps are needed only in tests (and maybe someday in
* testlib), but why bother?
*
- Stripping code entirely might help us keep under the method limit someday. Even if it never
* comes to that, it may at least help with build and startup times.
