Description

I noticed that the minSdk was bumped from 15 to 26 in https://github.com/google/mobly-snippet-lib/pull/110/files
In our use case, we'd like to run tests on lower-API devices, too. I took a look and didn't find a clear reason for the version bump. I'm able to build the project with minSdk 14 actually. Can you remember why this version bump was necessary?

Research direction

Start by reviewing pull request 110 and the current minSdk declaration to understand what changed and why. Check whether the library and its tests support API 14; done means either documenting the required rationale for API 26 or validating and applying support for the lower minimum.
