/**
 * Represents a resource of an application under test which can cause asynchronous background work
 * to happen during test execution (e.g. an intent service that processes a button click). By
 * default, {@link Espresso} synchronizes all view operations with the UI thread as well as
 * AsyncTasks; however, it has no way of doing so with "hand-made" resources. In such cases, test
 * authors can register the custom resource via {@link androidx.test.espresso.IdlingRegistry}
 * and {@link Espresso} will wait for the resource to become idle prior to executing a view
 * operation.
 *
 * <p><b>Important Note:</b> it is assumed that the resource stays idle most of the time.
 *
 * <p><b>Note:</b> before writing your implementation consider using {@link
 * androidx.test.espresso.idling.CountingIdlingResource} instead.
