Description
Incompatible flag --incompatible_no_implicit_file_export will be enabled by default in a future Bazel release [1], thus breaking Android Testing.
The flag is documented here: https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/10225
Please check the following CI builds for build and test results:
*
Ubuntu 16.04, OpenJDK 8
*
Windows, OpenJDK 8
*
macOS, OpenJDK 8
*
Ubuntu 18.04, OpenJDK 11
Never heard of incompatible flags before? We have [documentation](https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/backward-compatibility.html) that explains everything.
If you don't want to receive any future issues for Android Testing or if you have any questions,
please file an issue in https://github.com/bazelbuild/continuous-integration
**Important**: Please do NOT modify the issue title since that might break our tools.
[1] The target release hasn't been determined yet. Our tool will update the issue title once the flag flip has been scheduled.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked Bazel incompatible-flag documentation and the four Buildkite CI results for Android Testing. Identify the Android Testing build or test failures caused by --incompatible_no_implicit_file_export, then verify that all listed platforms pass with the flag enabled before its future default flip.
