*** ** * ** ***

Annotation to assign a medium test size qualifier to a test. This annotation can be used at the method or class level.

Test size qualifiers are a great way to structure test code and are used to assign a test to a suite of tests that have similar run times.

Execution time: \<1000ms

Medium tests should be focused on a very limited subset of components or a single component. Resource access to the file system through well-defined interfaces like databases, `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/ContentProvider.html`, or `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Context.html` is permitted. Network access should be restricted. Long-running or blocking operations should be avoided. Use fake objects instead.

**Note:** This class replaces the deprecated Android platform size qualifier [`
android.test.suitebuilder.annotation.MediumTest`](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/test/suitebuilder/annotation/MediumTest) and is the recommended way to annotate tests written with the AndroidX Test libraries.
