Session: Easy Black-box testing with Robotium for Android

Wednesday, 14:15 - 15:05
Track: Smart phones

This session shows how Robotium relates to standard Android instrumentation tests, and details how it can be used in real life. Guaranteed: Live test coding with real applications.
Before Robotium, instrumentation tests on the Android platform had to be too tightly coupled with the tested application's implementation. It is now possible to write true Black-box tests, with no previous information about how the application under test is implemented. The tests we create in this session focus on what the screen looks like, and what the user really does, rather than individual component id's or ordering within the UI layout.

Expectations

How Robotium relates to standard instrumentation testing; How to write readable tests, with 10x less code; How to (still) access all the powers of Instrumentation; The future of testing on Android
