Description

Hello,
your README states:
> the test suite will not report that the Test Butler app is not installed, instead it will skip the test.

However, I am continually getting this exception:
**java.lang.IllegalStateException: ButlerService is not started!**

When trying to use TestButler without the companion APK.

Research direction

Start with the README statement about the test suite and compare it with the reported ButlerService exception when the companion APK is absent. Confirm the actual behavior in the test suite, then update the README so its description matches; the issue is done when the documented behavior is accurate.
