Is anyone using TDD on a significant Android app? Any tips?

Adopting test driven development, CI/CD to native android development
Don't write assertions on views, it's way too brittle. Use Screenshot testing (it's also incredibly useful to use screenshot testing as part of TDD, write tests to generate screenshots, make changes, check screenshots). I'm the original author of https://github.com/facebook/screenshot-tests-for-android, so I'm biased. Also did a talk about this at Droidcon NYC a few years ago if you're interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=No6iZIbh59Q

Android Library: Create an image/screenshot of any View or Bitamp in JPG, PNG or .nomedia formats with oneliner code. Save yourself the trouble!
If you want to do something similar in automated tests, I'd suggest https://github.com/facebook/screenshot-tests-for-android. It handles a few extra things that are useful for automation, but it's probably not that complicated to build into QuickShot.

Jetpack Compose Screenshot Testing With Shot
Also take a look at screenshotbot.io, I'm the original author of screenshot-tests-for-android, which Karumi Shot uses under the hood. Screenshotbot will record your screenshots on the cloud instead of your repository. This reduces the overhead of screenshot tests on your coworkers, they don't need to understand screenshot tests in order to reap the benefits. It's how we did it at Facebook, I described this in my Droidcon talk.
