Give a better error message with you omit @get:Rule #2393

@yogurtearl

Description

@yogurtearl

If you forget @get:Rule, it should provide a message that says "Did you forgot @get:Rule? "

Consider this code:

    // forgot to put the @get:Rule
    val composeTestRule = createComposeRule()

    @Test
    fun `test compose stuff`() = with(composeTestRule) {
        setContent {
              Text("Hi there") 
        }
    }

Without @get:Rule you get this:

java.lang.NullPointerException
at androidx.test.internal.util.Checks.checkNotNull(Checks.java:41)
at androidx.test.ext.junit.rules.ActivityScenarioRule.getScenario(ActivityScenarioRule.java:127)

at androidx.compose.ui.test.junit4.AndroidComposeTestRule.setContent(AndroidComposeTestRule.android.kt:381)

Should add something like this to ActivityScenarioRule.getScenario to give a hint:

        checkNotNull(scenario) { "scenario was null, did you forgot @get:Rule somewhere?" }
