Could not launch intent Intent Espresso again

I am testing with the Espresso framework but keep getting the following error:

`java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not launch intent Intent { act=android.intent.action.MAIN flg=0x14000000 cmp=aurora.aero.inflightmanager.dds/aurora.aero.inflightmanager.home.HomeActivity } within 45 seconds. Perhaps the main thread has not gone idle within a reasonable amount of time? There could be an animation or something constantly repainting the screen. Or the activity is doing network calls on creation? See the threaddump logs. For your reference the last time the event queue was idle before your activity launch request was 1501794260595 and now the last time the queue went idle was: 1501794260664. If these numbers are the same your activity might be hogging the event queue.

My build.gradle is as follows:

` androidTestCompile('com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'
exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'appcompat'
exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-v4'
exclude group: 'recyclerview-v7'
exclude group: 'com.google.guava:guava:19.0'

})`

I have looked at both #56 and #15 and I have excluded every dependency in my production APK from my test APK. I'm still getting the same error. The strange thing is that sometimes it randomly works and the test will pass, but for the most part I get the same error, any ideas?

Inizia dalla configurazione androidTestCompile di build.gradle e dallo stack trace di ActivityTestRule.launchActivity. Esamina le issue di riferimento #56 e #15, quindi ispeziona i log di threaddump relativi all’avvio di HomeActivity e all’esecuzione del test Espresso. Il lavoro è completato quando viene identificato il motivo per cui l’activity non diventa idle e il test viene avviato in modo affidabile.

Scritto dal modello di indicizzazione a partire dal testo della issue.
