No android emulators for Flutter integration tests

[charbel-elhajj]

Hello everyone.

I am trying to run integration tests on my app in my codemagic pipeline. I would like to run them on both Android and iOS.
However, it seems like the android option is not available. (see screenshot below)

I also tried to launch the emulator manually using flutter emulators --create --name emulator but it resulted in the following error:

Failed to create emulator 'emulator'.

No suitable Android AVD system images are available. You may need to install these using sdkmanager, for example:
  sdkmanager "system-images;android-27;google_apis_playstore;x86"

You can find more information on managing emulators at the links below:

Hi @charbel-elhajj, if you are using M1 machines, then android emulators are not supported. You can switch to Linux or Mac pro instances.

Hello @himesh-cm, it solved it! Thank you

Mac Pro instance "The mac_pro instance type does not support the selected Xcode version. Please consider using mac_mini_m1 instead"

Mac Pro seems to be deprecated. There should be emulators available for mac mini. Crossbuild/tests are no longer possible.

Hi @pfaffenrodt, You can still use Mac pro machines with 14.2 or build using Linux machines.

I know, that I can. But you can not build crossbuild on the same maschine. For example in Kmm or Flutter projects with latest xcode.
