Suppose you've got an Android application with a bunch of tests. Some of them are unit tests (located in src/test). The rest are instrumentation tests (located in src/androidTest). Here's the dilemma: you've got some utility code that you'd like all of your tests to share but src/test

The final part of my Android testing series will be about services one can use for testing. By services, I typically mean companies you pay to help you do your testing. I'm currently operating on a budget of zero, so I haven't actually tested any of these services at all,

Part three of my Android testing series will be about odds-and-ends tools for testing that don't really fit into strict unit/functional testing frameworks, but are worth checking out. Part 1: Unit Tests Part 2: Functional Tests Part 3: Other Testing Tools Part 4: Testing Services Spreadsheet: Android Testing monkey

Here's part two of my series on Android testing. This time, I'm going to wade into the huge number of functional testing frameworks that exist. The differentiation I made between unit testing and functional testing is that the functional tests operate the actual device (as in, you could watch it

I've recently been doing research on Android testing. I'm quite new to this business; automated testing has (for the longest time) felt unnecessary. But I've been slowly convinced that the benefits outweigh the time costs - as long as you do it in an efficient manner. To that end, I
