Android test code coverage, Eclipse

Question

Is there a way to run unit tests for Android from Eclipse in a way that will instrument the code and measure test code coverage?

I\'m looking for a simple way to fi

Answer 1

I've been used EMMA (android already support it) for code coverage (and android-junit-report for test reports), here is a summary:

• Create android project (or library)

android.bat update project -p project -n my_project -t android-16

cd project

ant emma clean debug

• create a test project (linked to previous library)

android.bat update project --library ..\project -p project_Test -n project_Test -t

• in case the main project is not a library

android.bat update project -m ..\project -p project_Test -n project_Test -t

ant emma clean debug install I ddidn't use 'test' since I want to run my own instrument

adb shell am instrument -e coverage true -e coverageFile sdcard/coverage.ec -w com..myproject.test/com.zutubi.android.junitreport.JUnitReportTestRunner

• Pull files from device (emulator)

adb pull sdcard/junit-report.xml

adb pull sdcard/coverage.ec

• Generate XML report (can also generate html report)

java -cp emma.jar emma report -r xml -in bin/coverage.em,coverage.ec

• Generate HTML report (can also generate html report)

java -cp emma.jar emma report -r html -in bin/coverage.em,coverage.ec

• Using Post-builds (Jenkins):

  • JUnit report XML
  • Emma Coverage report (give the coverage.xml as input)

Don't need the emma.jar into libs
