Sample project to reproduce issue:

https://github.com/vudzkostek/AgpReproduceTestIssue

We've used AGP 4.2.2 in project and all android tests under library modules worked fine. After upgrading AGP to version 7.0.0 (and later 7.0.1) we are not able to compile android tests.
For sample project call: ./gradlew :customView:assembleDebugAndroidTest
Result: > Cannot find resource: id view_1
Expected: Successful compilation

Changing AGP version in sample project to 4.2.2 solves issue.
Missing resource id is used in kotlin code as reference for Espresso.

I also have the same issue so it seems to be a real problem.

Though it's a bit more detailed with the minimum necessary to reproduce.

I understand that this is an old issue and I am just starting to investigate this. Is this still a problem?

I've just updated sample project dependencies to the latest AGP and Gradle versions and problem still occurs with additional StackOverflow issue.

Marked as fixed.

Thanks for reporting this. Data binding base class generation was broken for library modules with android test that had views. This is now fixed in the main branch and the fix will be available in 8.0 beta1.
