Installation did not succeed in Android version 12

I tried to install my application in an Android version 12. I added the android:exported for each activity, receiver and filters. This error occurs

Installation did not succeed.
The application could not be installed: INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_MANIFEST_MALFORMED

List of apks:
[0] 'C:\Users\Code\MyApp\app\build\outputs\apk\debug\app-debug.apk'
Installation failed due to: 'Failed to commit install session 366841949 with command package install-commit 366841949.

The merged manifist displays these errors

This is the test AndroidManifest.XML file that causes the errors

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="androidx.test.core" >

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="14"
        android:targetSdkVersion="28" />

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.REORDER_TASKS" />

    <application>

            android:name="androidx.test.core.app.InstrumentationActivityInvoker$BootstrapActivity"
            android:theme="@android:style/Theme" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>

            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
        <activity

    </application>

</manifest>

These are the test dependencies I'm using

debugImplementation 'androidx.fragment:fragment-testing:1.3.5'
testImplementation 'junit:junit:4. '
androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test.ext:junit:1.1.2'
androidTestImplementation('androidx.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.4.0')
androidTestImplementation('androidx.test:runner:1.4.0')
androidTestImplementation('androidx.test:rules:1.4.0')

The problem occurs in the test package and its auto generated. How to fix it?

I tried multiple solutions to fix the problem but nothing seems to fix it.

These are some solutions I looked into but didn't work for me.

CodePudding user response：

The error was fixed by changing this dependency version androidx.fragment:fragment-testing

from version 1.3.5

debugImplementation 'androidx.fragment:fragment-testing:1.3.5'

to version 1.4.0

debugImplementation 'androidx.fragment:fragment-testing:1.4.0'
