What happened?

A bug happened!

When running UI Composable tests, the Splash Screen is displayed. To see this happen, run any test in NavigationUiTest.kt.

Screen shot for when running NavigationUiTest.compactWidth_compactHeight_showsNavigationBar() test:

Expected results:
Splash screen theme should not be shown when running compose UI tests. Instead, only the composable within composeTestRule.setContent should be displayed.

Looks like a solution/work around is to set the splash theme at the activity level instead of the application level in AndroidManifest.xml.

Application theme changed from:
android:theme="@style/Theme.Nia.Splash"
to:
android:theme="@style/Theme.Nia"

And adding:
android:theme="@style/Theme.Nia.Splash"
to .MainActivity

Seems to fix the issue.
