Robolectric idleMainLooper explanation

Robolectric idleMainLooper() I want to know specifically the usage of this function and its functionality.

ShadowLooper.idleMainLooper();

If I use a line as above what is likely to happen?

This is what idle does according to docs.

Causes Runnables that have been scheduled to run immediately to actually run. Does not advance the scheduler's clock

You would use this on a Looper that you have shadowed. So idleMainLooper will just do exactly that on the main looper. Code is here
