Today I want to show you a small nice tool, to stress test your Android app. The tool is called monkey and is part of the Android SDK. The tool is not new, but I didn’t had the chance/ time to work with the tool.
Monkey is a program that runs on your device or emulator. While running it is generating pseudo-random user events such as touch, click, rotate, swipe, mute the phone, shutdown wifi and many more, to stress test your app and to see how your app is handling all those inputs.
This week I found the nice github page from Stephane Nicolas named Quality Tools for Android. He provided a sample Android app using several test frameworks, to see how to use them.
Today, I found a really nice library extension for Robotium. The name of the library is ExtSolo and stands for Extension Solo. The name stands for itself, it extends the known solo object provided by Robotium.
The library is developed by the guys from bitbar, the company behind testdroid.
If you check the provided API documentation, you find some really useful methods to integrate them into your Android test automation framework. There are methods like:
changeDeviceLanguage(java.util.Locale locale)fail(java.lang.String name, java.lang.Object e)setGPSMockLocation(double latitude, double longitude, double altitude)turnWifi(boolean enabled)
