Espresso - TextView contains String

Question

Quite simply, how do I say if a given `TextView` contains a specific string in `Espresso`. The equivalent of: `myStrings.contains("Subby");`

Accepted Answer

You can use the Hamcrest library. It has a method containsString. I believe it is in the Espresso library.

You can static import it in your class:

```
import static org.hamcrest.core.StringContains.containsString;
```

Use containsString in your method on a TextView:

```
textView.check(matches(withText(containsString("Test"))));
```
