Code Review for PR #422: test on sdk 34

I've reviewed the change to .github/workflows/build_test.yml that adds SDK 34 to the test matrix. Here's my comprehensive feedback:

Summary

This PR adds Android API level 34 to the automated test matrix, expanding test coverage to include the latest stable Android version (Android 14).

Code Quality and Best Practices ✅

• The change follows the existing pattern in the test matrix configuration
• Formatting and indentation are consistent with the surrounding code
• The addition is placed in the correct sequential order (29, 30, 32, 34)

Potential Bugs or Issues ⚠️

• No issues identified with the change itself
• The workflow configuration appears correct and should execute without problems

Performance Considerations 📊

• Increased CI time: Adding another test configuration will increase the total CI runtime by approximately 5-10 minutes per build
• Parallel execution: The fail-fast: false setting ensures all matrix jobs run in parallel, which is good for getting complete test results
• Resource usage: One additional emulator instance will be created and cached

Security Concerns ✅

• No security issues identified
• The change only affects test execution scope, not application security
• Uses the same secure google_apis target as other test configurations

Test Coverage 📈

• Positive impact: Extends test coverage to Android 14 (API 34), ensuring compatibility with the latest Android version
• Gap identified: API levels 31 and 33 are missing from the test matrix. Consider adding these for complete coverage of recent Android versions
• Note: API level 23 is commented out due to known issues (referenced in issue API 23 test broken #390)

Recommendations

1. Consider adding API levels 31 and 33 for comprehensive coverage of Android 12 and 13
2. Update PR description: Add a meaningful description explaining why SDK 34 support is being added
3. Verify app configuration: Ensure targetSdkVersion in the app's build configuration is updated to 34 if not already done

Overall Assessment

This is a straightforward and beneficial change that improves test coverage. The implementation is clean and follows established patterns. ✅
