[mobile] Skip mobile-incompatible tests in System.IO.Compression and System.Runtime.Loader #127080
Description
Fixes test failures on Android and iOS mobile platforms discovered in build #1383320.
Failures addressed
1. System.IO.Compression.DeflateEncoderDecoderTests.GetMaxCompressedLength_MatchesNativeCompressBound
Helix job: c1e7d30b-9f1d-4f11-9117-cfe78a4df8b9
Work item: System.IO.Compression.Tests
Platform: android-arm64 (also affects all other Android architectures and iOS)
Root cause: This test compares the managed DeflateEncoder.GetMaxCompressedLength() against the native zlib compressBound() function. The Android zlib implementation returns slightly different values than the desktop implementation for certain input sizes.
Sample failures:
[FAIL] System.IO.Compression.DeflateEncoderDecoderTests.GetMaxCompressedLength_MatchesNativeCompressBound(inputLength: 0)
Assert.Equal() Failure: Values differ
Expected: 13
Actual: 11
[FAIL] System.IO.Compression.DeflateEncoderDecoderTests.GetMaxCompressedLength_MatchesNativeCompressBound(inputLength: 100)
Assert.Equal() Failure: Values differ
Expected: 113
Actual: 122

**Fix**: Add `nameof(PlatformDetection.IsNotAndroid)` to the test's `ConditionalTheory` attribute to skip on Android where the native implementation differs.
### 2. System.Runtime.Loader.Tests.AssemblyLoadContextTest tests using Assembly.Location
**Helix job**: `c1e7d30b-9f1d-4f11-9117-cfe78a4df8b9`
**Work item**: `System.Runtime.Loader.Tests`
**Platform**: android-arm64 (also affects all mobile platforms)
**Root cause**: The tests `InvalidCastException_DifferentALC_ShowsAssemblyInfo` and `InvalidCastException_GenericTypeArg_DifferentALC_ShowsAssemblyInfo` call `LoadFromAssemblyPath(typeof(AssemblyLoadContextTest).Assembly.Location)`. On mobile platforms, `Assembly.Location` returns an empty string because assemblies are loaded from the APK/app bundle, not from individual files on disk.
**Failure**:
````
[FAIL] System.Runtime.Loader.Tests.AssemblyLoadContextTest.InvalidCastException_DifferentALC_ShowsAssemblyInfo
System.ArgumentException : Path "" is not an absolute path. (Parameter 'assemblyPath')
at System.Runtime.Loader.AssemblyLoadContext.LoadFromAssemblyPath(String assemblyPath)
Fix: Add nameof(PlatformDetection.IsNotMobile) to both tests' ConditionalFact attributes to skip on mobile platforms where Assembly.Location is not available.
Testing
These changes will be validated by the runtime-extra-platforms pipeline to ensure the tests are correctly skipped on mobile and still run on desktop platforms.
Note
This PR was created by GitHub Copilot after analyzing mobile platform CI failures in the runtime-extra-platforms pipeline.

Skip GetMaxCompressedLength test on mobile platforms
github-actions commentedon Apr 17, 2026
✅ Draft PR created: The fix for the
GetMaxCompressedLength_MatchesNativeCompressBoundtest failure has been submitted as a draft pull request.The test is now skipped on all mobile platforms (Android, iOS, tvOS, MacCatalyst) where the native zlib implementation differs from zlib-ng.
Note: The
