Firebase Test Lab for Android with profile or release mode

[ostk0069]

Currently, flutter integration test with Firebase Test Lab in Andriod is not working on profile mode or release mode, only debug mode does. This is not due to the patrol, but is anyone know the way to work with this.

platform	configuration	works
Android	debug	yes
Android	profile	no(I need this)
Android	release	no(I need this)
iOS	debug	no
iOS	profile	yes
iOS	release	no

The problem is running intgration test in debug mode is too buggy that this test will be too flaky.

Hi @ostk0069 👋🏻 Thanks for asking!

This is already tracked as #346. You comment there and add a "👍" :)

What I want is profile / release mode on Android flutter integration test in Firebase Test Lab , not only in flutter integration test.

Instead of doing:

./gradlew :app:assembleDebug -Ptarget="$(pwd)/../integration_test/example_test.dart"
./gradlew :app:assembleDebugAndroidTest

you can do:

./gradlew :app:assembleRelease -Ptarget="$(pwd)/../integration_test/example_test.dart"
./gradlew :app:assembleReleaseAndroidTest

and then upload to Firebase Test Lab:

gcloud firebase test android run --type instrumentation \
    --app build/app/outputs/apk/release/app-release.apk \
    --test build/app/outputs/apk/androidTest/release/app-release-androidTest.apk \
    --timeout 1m \
    --results-bucket=<RESULTS_BUCKET> \
    --results-dir=<RESULTS_DIRECTORY>

The above steps are modified version of the steps described in the docs.

This approach has a problem described in #898. We're working on solving it.
