Update.

Just use for version 1.x and 2.x:

Robolectric.application;

And for version 3.x:

RuntimeEnvironment.application;

And for version 4.x:

  • add to your build.gradle file:

    testImplementation 'androidx.test:core:1.0.0'

  • retrieve the context with:

    ApplicationProvider.getApplicationContext()
