Paging 3
The Paging 3 library offers a builder method PagingData.from(someList).
Paging 2
Convert List Into PagedList With a Mock DataSource.Factory.
@saied89 shared this solution in this googlesamples/android-architecture-components issue. I've implemented the mocked PagedList in the Coinverse Open App in order to local unit test a ViewModel using Kotlin, JUnit 5, MockK, and AssertJ libraries.
To observe the LiveData from the PagedList I've used Jose Alcérreca's implementation of getOrAwaitValue from the LiveDataSample sample app under Google's Android Architecture Components samples.
The asPagedList extension function is implemented in the sample test ContentViewModelTest.kt below.

InstantExecutorExtension.kt
This is required for JUnit 5 when using LiveData in order to ensure the Observer is not on the main thread. Below is Jeroen Mols' implementation.
import androidx.arch.core.executor.ArchTaskExecutor
import androidx.arch.core.executor.TaskExecutor
import org.junit.jupiter.api.extension.AfterEachCallback
import org.junit.jupiter.api.extension.BeforeEachCallback
import org.junit.jupiter.api.extension.ExtensionContext
class InstantExecutorExtension : BeforeEachCallback, AfterEachCallback {
override fun beforeEach(context: ExtensionContext?) {
ArchTaskExecutor.getInstance().setDelegate(object : TaskExecutor() {
override fun executeOnDiskIO(runnable: Runnable) = runnable.run()
override fun postToMainThread(runnable: Runnable) = runnable.run()
override fun isMainThread(): Boolean = true
})
}
override fun afterEach(context: ExtensionContext?) {
ArchTaskExecutor.getInstance().setDelegate(null)
}
}
