[CI] Setup CI workflow for running Android-ComposeApp UI tests

[PatilShreyas]

Description

Currently, only unit tests are executed on push or pull_request events. It would be nice to execute UI tests (of compose app) module as well.

Criteria for workflow

• The workflow should run on push and pull-request event.
• Should only run when Android project's directory source is changed.

Task steps

Once above criteria is met, run the following commands

./gradlew :app:composeapp:connectedCheck

Solution

For running emulator on CI, following action utility can be useful:

Hi @PatilShreyas ,

It would be really helpful if you could clarify a few things for me if possible .

• You mentioned that currently Unit tests are executed on pull requests/push events , But i couldn't find anything like
  name: Unit Test
run: chmod +x ./gradlew test
  in the workflows , So just wanted to understand whether the unit tests are being executed in a different way in your project
• In the documentation of the action utility https://github.com/marketplace/actions/android-emulator-runner which you have suggested , They have suggested that using Mac-os for running the jobs on virtual machine but currently in the workflows which you have defined ubuntu-latest is being used , So what do you suggest me to go with ?

Thanks

1. When command ./gradlew build is executed, tests are also executed.

2. We need a separate job under build.yml which runs on macOS and dedicatedly executes UI tests.
