I am trying to use Robolectric to run a test case on a App in Eclipse as described in this blog, but when I run the JUnit Test, I get the following error

    You have two options:

    1. You should run JUnit in the folder where is AndroidManifest.xml is placed
    2. You could extend RobolectricTestRunner and call parent constructor with path to the AndroidManifest.xml
