r test cases cover various scenarios and edge cases related to the feature.</p><h1 id="e943">Step 3: Create a Test Configuration</h1><p id="7aa5">You may need to create a specific test configuration or suite that includes the test cases related to the feature. This helps isolate the testing of that feature.</p><h1 id="5b64">Step 4: Configure GitHub Actions Workflow</h1><p id="b8d2">Update your GitHub Actions workflow YAML file (usually named <code>.github/workflows/android_build.yml</code>) to include a job that runs the tests for the specific feature. Here's an example of how you can create a job specifically for testing a feature:</p><p id="3577">Here’s an example of how you can create a job specifically for testing a feature:</p><div id="8753"><pre><span class="hljs-attr">name:</span> <span class="hljs-string">AndroidBuild</span>
