MockContentResolver

Kotlin |Java

public class MockContentResolver
extends ContentResolver

java.lang.Object
↳	android.content.ContentResolver
	↳	android.test.mock.MockContentResolver

An extension of ContentResolver that is designed for testing.

MockContentResolver overrides Android's normal way of resolving providers by authority. To have access to a provider based on its authority, users of MockContentResolver first instantiate the provider and use MockContentResolver.addProvider(String, ContentProvider). Resolution of an authority occurs entirely within MockContentResolver.

Users can also set an authority's entry in the map to null, so that a provider is completely mocked out.

`String`	`SYNC_EXTRAS_DO_NOT_RETRY` If this extra is set to true then the request will not be retried if it fails.
`String`	`SYNC_EXTRAS_EXPEDITED` If this extra is set to true, the sync request will be scheduled at the front of the sync request queue, but it is still subject to JobScheduler quota and throttling due to App Standby buckets.
`String`	`SYNC_EXTRAS_FORCE` This constant was deprecated in API level 15. instead use `SYNC_EXTRAS_MANUAL`
`String`	`SYNC_EXTRAS_IGNORE_BACKOFF` If this extra is set to true then any backoffs for the initial attempt (e.g. due to retries) are ignored by the sync scheduler.

`String`	`SYNC_EXTRAS_INITIALIZE` Set by the SyncManager to request that the SyncAdapter initialize itself for the given account/authority pair.
`String`	`SYNC_EXTRAS_MANUAL` Setting this extra is the equivalent of setting both `SYNC_EXTRAS_IGNORE_SETTINGS` and `SYNC_EXTRAS_IGNORE_BACKOFF`
