| 3 | + <a href="../../../resources/tutorials/testing/activity_test.html">Activity |
| 4 | + Testing</a> tutorial. It tests the <a href="../Spinner/index.html">Spinner</a> example |
| 5 | + application. |

| - This application does not have an Android GUI. |
| 8 | + The test application uses the |
| 9 | +<a href="../../../reference/android/test/ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2.html"><code>ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2</code></a> |
| 10 | + test case class, |
| 11 | + which extends both <a href="../../../reference/android/app/Instrumentation">Android instrumentation</a> and the JUnit |
| 12 | +<a href="../../../reference/junit/framework/TestCase.html"><code>TestCase</code></a> |
| 13 | + class. The test runner is <a href="../../../reference/android/test/InstrumentationTestRunner.html"><code>InstrumentationTestRunner</code></a>. |
9 | 14 | </p>
|
| 15 | +<p> |
| 16 | + The application shows how to set up a test application project, |
| 17 | + how to create the <a href="AndroidManifest.html"><code>AndroidManifest.xml</code></a> |
| 18 | + file for a test application, and how to set up a test case class for a test fixture. The |
| 19 | + test case class, <a href="src/com/android/example/spinner/test/SpinnerActivityTest.html"><code>SpinnerActivityTest</code></a>, |
| 20 | + contains tests that demonstrate the following Android test patterns: |
| 21 | +</p> |
| 22 | + <ul> |
| 23 | + <li> |
| 24 | + Test setup: The <code>setUp()</code> method re-initializes the state of the application under test |
| 25 | + before each test is run. |
| 26 | + </li> |
| 27 | + <li> |
| 28 | + Initial conditions: The <code>testPreconditions()</code> method demonstrates how to |
| 29 | + test that the application under test is properly initialized prior to running the |
| 30 | + test fixture. |
| 31 | + </li> |
| 32 | + <li> |
| 33 | + UI interaction: The <code>testSpinnerUI()</code> method demonstrates how to send keystrokes |
| 34 | + to the activity under test and then test the result. |
| 35 | + </li> |
| 36 | + <li> |
| 37 | + Application control using instrumentation: The <code>testStateDestroy()</code> and <code>testStatePause()</code> |
| 38 | + methods demonstrate how to use instrumentation to trigger stages in the lifecycle of the activity under test. |
| 39 | + </li> |
| 40 | + </ul> |
| 41 | +<p> |
| 42 | + The <a href="AndroidManifest.html">manifest</a> declares an <code><instrumentation></code> element |
| 43 | + that links the test application with the application under test. Specifically, the |
| 44 | + element's <code>android:name</code> attribute specifies <code>InstrumentationTestRunner</code> as the |
| 45 | + instrumentation to use. The <code>android:targetPackage</code> attribute specifies |
| 46 | + <code>com.android.example.spinner</code> as the name of the Android package that contains the |
| 47 | + application under test. |
