Unit Testing Android Applications

Unit testing my Android application has put strain on my patience. All of my unit tests are not just one quick key stroke. I already posted regarding mock testing an Android project. Integration tests are another issue. These tests have to run inside the container -- the emulator or phone. I got started writing integration tests by reading this document. You'll find more Android topics discussed at his blog.

I followed Diego's steps to setup the test-specific eclipse project. Then I created an external tool configuration to launch the tests:
The "Functional Tests" run configuration changes the arguments to:

shell am instrument -w -e func true com.wilson.android.libary.test/android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner

Now each time I'm ready to run the tests I need to deploy the main project, the test project -- if they both changed. Now I can use one of the run configurations above to use "adb" to launch the tests.

Be sure to read the official documentation on running instrumentation tests, starting here.
