Can not Resolve getActivity() method

Question

I am trying to take a screenshot while doing an esspresso test here is my code and i cannot resolve the method getActivity and i have tried using this and that did not work either.

package com.lifehealth.irma.test.Screenshotscripts;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.support.test.espresso.action.ViewActions;
import android.support.test.espresso.matcher.ViewMatchers;
import android.support.test.rule.ActivityTestRule;
import android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnit4;
import android.test.ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2;
import android.test.suitebuilder.annotation.LargeTest;

import com.lifehealth.MainActivity;
import com.lifehealth.irma.R;

import org.junit.Before;
import org.junit.Rule;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;


import static android.support.test.espresso.Espresso.onView;
import static android.support.test.espresso.action.ViewActions.click;
import static android.support.test.espresso.action.ViewActions.closeSoftKeyboard;
import static android.support.test.espresso.action.ViewActions.doubleClick;
import static android.support.test.espresso.action.ViewActions.swipeUp;
import static android.support.test.espresso.action.ViewActions.typeText;
import static android.support.test.espresso.matcher.ViewMatchers.withId;
import static android.support.test.espresso.matcher.ViewMatchers.withText;

//hamcrest

@RunWith(AndroidJUnit4.class)
@LargeTest

// Name of the activity + Test
public class Screencap {
    //Strings to be typed into tests declaration
    public static final String STRING_TO_BE_TYPED = "Test1233";
    public static final String loginID = "LIFEHEALTH";
    public static final String Device = "TestDevice";

    //Rule that tells the system which screen to start/boot up on this is telling the device to start from the main menu screen.
    @Rule
    public ActivityTestRule<MainActivity> mActivityRule = new ActivityTestRule<>(
            MainActivity.class);

    //@Test must be there to start a test if this is missing it will not run the test
    @Test
    public void Screencap1 () { /* passes*/
        //Enters login
        onView(withId(R.id.editOid)) /*editTextUserInput*/
                .perform(typeText(loginID), closeSoftKeyboard());
        // then click next
        onView(withId(R.id.btn_next)).perform(click());
        // "Clicks the settings
        onView(withId(R.id.btnSettings)).perform(click());
        //Clicks Device Settings.
        onView(withText("Device Settings")).perform(click());
        //Scroll up
        onView(withText("Configure IRMA Base")).perform(swipeUp());
        onView(withText("Configure IRMA Base")).perform(swipeUp());
        onView(withText("Configure IRMA Base")).perform(swipeUp());
        onView(withText("Configure IRMA Base")).perform(swipeUp());
        onView(withText("Configure IRMA Base")).perform(swipeUp());
        onView(withText("Configure IRMA Base")).perform(swipeUp());
        onView(withText("Barcode Reader Timeout")).perform(swipeUp());
        onView(withText("Barcode Reader Timeout")).perform(swipeUp());
        onView(withText("Barcode Reader Timeout")).perform(swipeUp());
        //language
        onView(withText("Language")).perform(doubleClick());

this is where the issue is

        HelperClass.takeScreenshot("Whatever you want to call the file", getActivity());


//wait 1 min
        try {
            Thread.sleep(1 * 60 * 1000);
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {

        }
        /* Clicks back button */
        onView(withId(R.id.btn_back)).perform(click());
        //clicks main menu button
        onView(withText("Main Menu")).perform(click());

    }

}

getActivity used for Fragment. You should use getApplicationContext() or YourClassName.this in this case.

The getActivity() method gives the context of the Activity. You can use YourActivityName.this instead of it.

getActivity() where it is defined?

Hope this will help you.
