Cast Exception - AndroidJUnitRunner cannot be cast to RoboMonitoringInstrumentation

Working on Android Instrumented Test to launch and test this fragment

enter image description here

But I am running to this nasty error.

java.lang.ClassCastException: androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner cannot be cast to org.robolectric.android.fakes.RoboMonitoringInstrumentation
at org.robolectric.android.internal.LocalActivityInvoker.getInstrumentation(LocalActivityInvoker.java:153)

at com.example.android.architecture.blueprints.todoapp.taskdetail.TaskDetailFragmentTest.activeTasks_displayedInUi(TaskDetailFragmentTest.kt:35)Tests ran to completion.

These are the dependencies that I'm using

Have been looking for an answer online but I have not come to any useful finding.

What could I be missing?

You should check the Roboelectric Dependency and ensure it is testImplementation

In my case I was using this version

implementation "org.robolectric:robolectric:4.5.1

The error was gone when I switched to test implementation.

testImplementation "org.robolectric:robolectric:4.5.1"
