Description
My espresso tests were working fine before I updated to AS 3.6 with
```
viewBinding {
enabled = true
}
```
Now, when I do something like this it is not working:
```
public static void tapCard(String PageName) throws Throwable {
Lets.performAndTakeSS(On.LocationsListDetails.CARDS_RECYCLER_VIEW, RecyclerViewActions.scrollTo(hasDescendant(EspressoMatchers.withText(EspressoMatchers.endsWith(PageName)))));
Lets.performAndTakeSS(On.LocationsListDetails.CARDS_RECYCLER_VIEW, RecyclerViewActions.actionOnItem(hasDescendant(EspressoMatchers.withText(EspressoMatchers.endsWith(PageName))), click()));
}
```
Am I supposed to change anything to work with viewbinding? Seeing this issue especially with Fragments.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the Espresso failure after enabling viewBinding in the shown configuration, focusing on the tapCard helper and the fragment cases mentioned. Compare the behavior before and after viewBinding is enabled; done should establish whether a change is required for these Espresso interactions and document or verify the working behavior.
