How do you manage multiple environments while developing Android apps?

Question

We\'re building an Android app that connects to the cloud. We have a test URL for our APIs and a production URL. We connect the app to our local development machines to talk

Answer 1

I don't know what's the best practice in that case, but I do like this:

You could make your app a LIB and create 2 apps: production app and testing app. Import your lib for those apps and build their manifests (it's almost copy paste of the old one). Then you replace your /res/ files that are different in each app... (you could create a config.xml file that have the URL).
