title: Robolectric vs Android Test Framework
body: <p>Does <strong><a href="http://robolectric.org/" rel="noreferrer">Robolectric</a></strong> provide any clear benefits compared to <strong>Android Test Framework</strong> ? I've read the docs regarding both the frameworks but as far as i can see the only clear cut benefit regarding <strong>Robolectric</strong> is that it runs on JVM rather than the DalvikVM, making it faster than Android framework.</p>
  
  <p>Are there any other major benefits that stand out ?</p>
