So how do I test my app?

I kinda have a couple questions.

I don't understand the point of the view presenter pattern with Mockito. Isn't it pointless to call a method and then check to see if the method was called!? Wouldn't we want to check if the method does the desired intention?

Testing with Robolectric seems easier than Espresso and less complicated. They seem to do the same thing, so is there a benefit to using both of them, as Espresso is on an actual device?
