I was using
actions/cache@v3
to restore and possibly save the AVD in instrumented test shards.That basic "cache" action handles both reading and writing to the cache. The writing is done during a post-action, meaning that if the AVD was cached, it was cached after it had been used for the instrumented tests.
Now, we use the newer
actions/cache/restore@v3
andactions/cache/save@v3
actions, like we use elsewhere. Now, if there was a cache miss and we have to make a new AVD, it is cached before the tests are executed so that it doesn't have any of our test apps installed.
