+<p>
+ Android includes powerful tools for setting up and running test applications.
+ Whether you are working in Eclipse with ADT or working from the command line, these tools
+ help you set up and run your tests within an emulator or the device you are targeting.
+ The documents listed below explain how to work with the tools in your development environment.
+</p>
+<p>
+ If you aren't yet familiar with the Android testing framework, please read the topic
+ <a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/testing/testing_android.html">Testing and Instrumentation</a>
+ before you get started.
+ For a step-by-step introduction to Android testing, try the <a
+ href="{@docRoot}resources/tutorials/testing/helloandroid_test.html">Hello, Testing</a>
+ tutorial, which introduces basic testing concepts and procedures.
+ For a more advanced tutorial, try <a

+ The ADT plugin lets you quickly set up and manage test projects directly in
+ the Eclipse UI. Once you have written your tests, you can build and run them and
+ then see the results in the Eclipse JUnit view. You can also use the SDK command-line
+ tools to execute your tests if needed.

+ <dd>
+ The SDK command-line tools provide the same capabilities as the ADT plugin. You can
+ use them to set up and manage test projects, build your test application,
+ run your tests, and see the results. You use
+ the <code>android</code> tool to create and manage test projects, the Ant build system
+ to compile them, and the <code>adb</code> tool to install and run them.

+ This topic explains how create and run tests of Android applications in Eclipse with ADT.
+
+ with the basic processes for creating and running applications with ADT, as described in
+ <a href="{@docRoot}guide/developing/eclipse-adt.html">Developing In Eclipse, with ADT</a>.
+
+ Before you read this topic, you should read about how to create a Android application with the
+ basic processes for creating and running applications with ADT, as described in
+ <a href="{@docRoot}guide/developing/eclipse-adt.html">Developing In Eclipse, with ADT</a>.
+ You may also want to read
+ <a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/testing/testing_android.html">Testing and Instrumentation</a>,
+ which provides an overview of the Android testing framework.
+</p>
+<p>
+ ADT provides several features that help you set up and manage your testing environment
+ effectively:
+</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ It lets you quickly create a test project and link it to the application under test.
+ When it creates the test project, it automatically inserts the necessary
+ <code>&lt;instrumentation&gt;</code> element in the test application's manifest file.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ It lets you quickly import the classes of the application under test, so that your
+ tests can inspect them.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ It lets you create run configurations for your test application and include in
+ them flags that are passed to the Android testing framework.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ It lets you run your test application without leaving Eclipse. ADT builds both the
+ application under test and the test application automatically, installs them if
+ necessary to your device or emulator, runs the test application, and displays the
+ results in a separate window in Eclipse.
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+<p>
+ If you are not developing in Eclipse or you want to learn how to create and run tests from the
+ command line, see
+ <a href="{@docRoot}guide/developing/testing/testing_otheride.html">Testing in Other IDEs</a>.
+</p>
+<h2 id="CreateTestProjectEclipse">Creating a Test Project</h2>
+ <p>
+ To set up a test environment for your Android application, you must first create a separate
+ application project that holds the test code. The new project follows the directory structure
+ used for any Android application. It includes the same types of content and files, such as
+ source code, resources, a manifest file, and so forth. The test application you
+ create is connected to the application under test by an
+ <a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/instrumentation-element.html">
+ <code>&lt;instrumentation&gt;</code></a> element in its manifest file.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The <strong>New Android Test Project</strong> dialog makes it easy for you to generate a
+ new test project that has the proper structure, including the
+ <code>&lt;instrumentation&gt;</code> element in the manifest file. You can use the New Android
+ Test Project dialog to generate the test project at any time. The dialog appears just after you
+ create a new Android main application project, but you can also run it to create a test project
+ for a project that you created previously.
+ </p>
+<p>
+ To create a test project in Eclipse with ADT:
+</p>
+<ol>
+ <li>
+ In Eclipse, select <strong>File &gt; New &gt; Other</strong>. This
+ opens the Select a Wizard dialog.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ In the dialog, in the Wizards drop-down list,
+ find the entry for Android, then click the toggle to the left. Select
+ Android Test Project, then at the bottom
+ of the dialog click Next. The New Android Test Project wizard appears.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Enter a project name. You may use any name, but you may want to
+ associate the name with the project name for your Application. One
+ way to do this is to take the Application's project name, append the
+ string "Test" to it, and then use this as the test case project name.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ In the Test Target panel, set
+ An Existing Android Project, click
+ Browse, then select your Android application from
+ the list. You now see that the wizard has completed the Test
+ Target Package, Application Name, and
+ Package Name fields for you (the latter two are in
+ the Properties panel).
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ In the Build Target panel, select the Android SDK
+ platform that you will use to test your application. Make this the same as the
+ build target of the application under test.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Click Finish to complete the wizard. If
+ Finish is disabled, look
+ for error messages at the top of the wizard dialog, and then fix
+ any problems.
+ </li>
+</ol>
+<p>
+
+</p>
+<h2 id="CreateTestAppEclipse">Creating a Test Application</h2>
+<p>
+ Once you have created a test project, you populate it with a test
+ Android application. This application does not require an {@link android.app.Activity Activity},
+ although you can define one if you wish. Although your test application can
+ combine Activities, Android test class extensions, JUnit extensions, or
+ ordinary classes, you should extend one of the Android test classes or JUnit classes,
+ because these provide the best testing features.
+</p>
+<p>
+ Test applications do not have an Android GUI. Instead, when you run the application in
+ Eclipse with ADT, its results appear in the JUnit view. If you run
+ your tests with {@link android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner InstrumentationTestRunner} (or a related test runner),
+ then it will run all the methods in each class. You can modify this behavior
+ by using the {@link junit.framework.TestSuite TestSuite} class.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+ To create a test application, start with one of Android's test classes in the Java package {@link android.test android.test}.
+ These extend the JUnit {@link junit.framework.TestCase TestCase} class. With a few exceptions, the Android test classes
+ also provide instrumentation for testing.
+</p>
+<p>
+ For test classes that extend {@link junit.framework.TestCase TestCase}, you probably want to override
+ the <code>setUp()</code> and <code>tearDown()</code> methods:
+</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>
+ <code>setUp()</code>: This method is invoked before any of the test methods in the class.
+ Use it to set up the environment for the test. You can use <code>setUp()</code>
+ to instantiate a new <code>Intent</code> object with the action <code>ACTION_MAIN</code>. You can
+ then use this intent to start the Activity under test.
+ <p class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> If you override this method, call
+ <code>super.setUp()</code> as the first statement in your code.
+ </p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <code>tearDown()</code>: This method is invoked after all the test methods in the class. Use
+ it to do garbage collection and re-setting before moving on to the next set of tests.
+ <p class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> If you override this method, you must call
+ <code>super.tearDown()</code> as the <em>last</em> statement in your code.</p>
+ </li>
+</ul>
+<p>
+ Another useful convention is to add the method <code>testPreConditions()</code> to your test
+ class. Use this method to test that the application under test is initialized correctly. If this
+ test fails, you know that that the initial conditions were in error. When this happens, further test
+ results are suspect, regardless of whether or not the tests succeeded.
+</p>
+<p>
+ The Resources tab contains an <a href="{@docRoot}resources/tutorials/testing/activity_test.html">Activity Testing</a>
+ tutorial with more information about creating test classes and methods.

+<div class="sidebox-wrapper">
+ <div class="sidebox">
+ <h2>Running tests from the command line</h2>
+ <p>
+ If you've created your tests in Eclipse, you can still run your tests and test
+ suites by using command-line tools included with the Android SDK. You may want to
+ do this, for example, if you have a large number of tests to run, if you have a
+ large test case, or if you want a fine level of control over which tests are run at
+ a particular time.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ To run tests created in Eclipse with ADT with command-line tools, you must first
+ install additional files into the test project using the <code>android</code> tool's
+ "create test-project" option. To see how to do this, read the section
+ <a href="{@docRoot}guide/developing/testing/testing_otheride.html#CreateProject">
+ Creating a test project</a> in the topic
+ <a href="{@docRoot}guide/developing/testing/testing_otheride.html">Testing in Other
+ IDEs</a>.
+ </p>
+ </div>
+</div>
+<p>
+ When you run a test application in Eclipse with ADT, the output appears in
+ an Eclipse view panel. You can run the entire test application, one class, or one
+ method of a class. To do this, Eclipse runs the <code>adb</code> command for running a test application, and
+ displays the output, so there is no difference between running tests inside Eclipse and running them from the command line.
+</p>
+<p>
+ As with any other application, to run a test application in Eclipse with ADT you must either attach a device to your
+ computer or use the Android emulator. If you use the emulator, you must have an Android Virtual Device (AVD) that uses
+ the same target
+</p>
+<p>
+ To run a test in Eclipse, you have two choices:</p>
+<ol>
+ <li>
+ Run a test just as you run an application, by selecting
+ <strong>Run As... &gt; Android JUnit Test</strong> from the project's context menu or
+ from the main menu's <strong>Run</strong> item.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Create an Eclipse run configuration for your test project. This is useful if you want multiple test suites, each consisting of selected tests from the project. To run
+ a test suite, you run the test configuration.
+ <p>
+ Creating and running test configurations is described in the next section.
+ </p>
+ </li>
+</ol>
+<p>To create and run a test suite using a run configuration:</p>
+<ol>
+ <li>
+ In the Package Explorer, select the test
+ project, then from the main menu, select
+ <strong>Run &gt; Run Configurations...</strong>. The
+ Run Configurations dialog appears.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ In the left-hand pane, find the
+ Android JUnit Test entry.
+ In the right-hand pane, click the Test tab.
+ The Name: text box
+ shows the name of your project. The
+ Test class: dropdown box shows one your project's classes
+ test classes in your project.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ To run one test class, click Run a single test, then enter your project
+ name in the Project: text box and the class name in the
+ Test class: text box.
+ <p>
+ To run all the test classes,
+ click Run all tests in the selected project or package,
+ then enter the project or package name in the text box.
+ </p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Now click the Target tab.
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ Optional: If you are using the emulator, click
+ Automatic, then in the Android Virtual Device (AVD)
+ selection table, select an existing AVD.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ In the Emulator Launch Parameters pane, set the
+ Android emulator flags you want to use. These are documented in the topic
+ <a href="{@docRoot}guide/developing/tools/emulator.html#startup-options">Emulator Startup Options</a>.
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ <li>
+ Click the Common tab. In the
+ Save As pane, click Local to save
+ this run configuration locally, or click Shared to
+ save it to another project.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Optional: Add the configuration to the Run toolbar and the <strong>Favorites</strong>
+ menu: in the Display in Favorites pane
+ click the checkbox next to Run.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Optional: To add this configuration to the <strong>Debug</strong> menu and toolbar, click
+ the checkbox next to Debug.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ To save your settings, click Close.<br/>
+ <p class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> Although you can run the test immediately by
+ clicking Run, you should save the test first and then
+ run it by selecting it from the Eclipse standard toolbar.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ On the Eclipse standard toolbar, click the down arrow next to the
+ green Run arrow. This displays a menu of saved Run and Debug
+ configurations.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Select the test run configuration you just created.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ The progress of your test appears in the Console view.
+ You should see the following messages, among others:
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <code>Performing Android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner JUnit launch</code><br>
+ The class name that proceeds "JUnit" depends on the Android instrumentation
+ class you have chosen.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ If you are using an emulator and you have not yet started it, then you will see
+ the message:
+ <p>
+ <code>Automatic Target Mode: launching new emulator with compatible
+ AVD <em>avdname</em></code><br>(where <em>avdname</em> is the name of
+ the AVD you are using.)
+ </p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ If you have not already installed your test application, then you will see
+ the message:
+ <p>
+ <code>Uploading <em>testclass</em>.apk onto device '<em>device-id</em>'</code><br>
+ where <em>testclass</em> is the name of your unit test class and <em>device-id</em>
+ is the name and port for your test device or emulator, followed by the message <code>Installing <em>testclass</em>.apk</code>
+ </p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <code>Launching instrumentation Android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner on device <em>device-id</em></code>.<br>
+ This indicates that Android's Instrumentation system is now testing your code. Again, the
+ instrumentation class name depends on the Android instrumentation class you have chosen.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <code>Test run complete</code>.<br> When you see this, your unit tests have finished.
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+</ol>
+<p>
+ The test results appear in the JUnit view. This is divided into an upper summary pane,
+ and a lower stack trace pane.
+</p>
+<p>
+ The upper pane contains test information. In the pane's header, you see the following
+ information:
+</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ Total time elapsed for the test application (labeled Finished after <em>x</em> seconds).
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Number of runs (Runs:) - the number of tests in the entire test class.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Number of errors (Errors:) - the number of program errors and exceptions encountered
+ during the test run.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Number of failures (Failures:) - the number of test failures encountered during the test
+ run. This is the number of assertion failures. A test can fail even if the program does
+ not encounter an error.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ A progress bar. The progress bar extends from left to right as the tests run. If all the
+ tests succeed, the bar remains green. If a test fails, the bar turns from green to red.
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+<p>
+ The body of the upper pane contains the details of the test run. For each test case class
+ that was run, you see a line with the class name. To look at the results for the individual
+ test methods in that class, you click the left arrow to expand the line. You now see a
+ line for each test method in the class, and to its right the time it took to run.
+ If you double-click the method name, Eclipse opens the test class source in an editor view
+ pane and moves the focus to the first line of the test method.
+</p>
+<p>
+ The lower pane is for stack traces. If you highlight a failed test in the upper pane, the
+ lower pane contains a stack trace for the test. If a line corresponds to a point in your
+ test code, you can double-click it to display the code in an editor view pane, with the
+ line highlighted. For a successful test, the lower pane is empty.

+ This document describes how to create and run tests directly from the command line.
+ You can use the techniques described here if you are developing in an IDE other than Eclipse
+ or if you prefer to work from the command line. This document assumes that you already know how
+ to create a Android application in your programming environment. Before you start this
+ document, you should read the document <a
+ href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/testing/testing_android.html">Testing and Instrumentation</a>,
+ which provides an overview of Android testing.
+</p>
+<p>
+ If you are developing in Eclipse with ADT, you can set up and run your tests
+directly in Eclipse. For more information, please read <a
+ href="{@docRoot}guide/developing/testing/testing_eclipse.html">Testing&nbsp;in&nbsp;Eclipse,&nbsp;with&nbsp;ADT</a>.
+</p>
+<h2 id="CreateTestProjectCommand">Working with Test Projects</h2>
+<p>
+ You use the <code>android</code> tool to create test projects.
+ You also use <code>android</code> to convert existing test code into an Android test project,
+ or to add the <code>run-tests</code> Ant target to an existing Android test project.
+ These operations are described in more detail in the section <a
+ href="#UpdateTestProject">Updating a test project</a>.
+ The <code>run-tests</code> target is described in <a
+ href="#RunTestsAnt">Quick build and run with Ant</a>.
+</p>
+<h3 id="CreateTestProject">Creating a test project</h3>
+<p>
+ To create a test project with the <code>android</code> tool, enter:
+<pre>android create test-project -m &lt;main_path&gt; -n &lt;project_name&gt; -p &lt;test_path&gt;</pre>
+<p>
+ You must supply all the flags. The following table explains them in detail:
+</p>
+<table>
+ <tr>
+ <th>Flag</th>
+ <th>Value</th>
+ <th>Description</th>
+ <tr>
+ <td><code>-m, --main</code></td>
+ <td>
+ Path to the project of the application under test, relative to the test application
+ directory.
+ </td>
+ <td>
+ For example, if the application under test is in <code>source/HelloAndroid</code>, and you
+ want to create the test project in <code>source/HelloAndroidTest</code>, then the value of
+ <code>--main</code> should be <code>../HelloAndroid</code>.
+ </td>
+ <tr>
+ <td><code>-n, --name</code></td>
+ <td>Name that you want to give the test project.</td>
+ <td>&nbsp;</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><code>-p, --path</code></td>
+ <td>Directory in which you want to create the new test project.</td>
+ <td>
+ The <code>android</code> tool creates the test project files and directory structure in this
+ directory. If the directory does not exist, <code>android</code> creates it.
+ </td>
+ </tr>
+</table>
+<p>
+ If the operation is successful, <code>android</code> lists to STDOUT the names of the files
+ and directories it has created.
+</p>
+<p>
+ This creates a new test project with the appropriate directories and build files. The directory
+ structure and build file contents are identical to those in a regular Android application
+ project. They are described in detail in the topic
+ <a href="{@docRoot}guide/developing/other-ide.html">Developing In Other IDEs</a>.
+</p>
+<p>
+ The operation also creates an <code>AndroidManifest.xml</code> file with instrumentation
+ information. When you run the test, Android uses this information to load the application you
+ are testing and control it with instrumentation.
+</p>
+<p>
+ For example, suppose you create the <a
+ href="{@docRoot}resources/tutorials/hello-world.html">Hello, World</a> tutorial application
+ in the directory <code>~/source/HelloAndroid</code>. In the tutorial, this application uses the
+ package name <code>com.example.helloandroid</code> and the activity name
+ <code>HelloAndroid</code>. You can to create the test for this in
+ <code>~/source/HelloAndroidTest</code>. To do so, you enter:
+</p>
+<pre>
+$ cd ~/source
+$ android create test-project -m ../HelloAndroid -n HelloAndroidTest -p HelloAndroidTest
+</pre>
+<p>
+ This creates a directory called <code>~/src/HelloAndroidTest</code>. In the new directory you
+ see the file <code>AndroidManifest.xml</code>. This file contains the following
+ instrumentation-related elements and attributes:
+</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>
+ <code>&lt;application&gt;</code>: to contain the
+ <code>&lt;uses-library&gt;</code> element.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <code>&lt;uses-library android:name=&quot;android.test.runner&quot;</code>:
+ specifies this testing application uses the <code>android.test.runner</code> library.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <code>&lt;instrumentation&gt;</code>: contains attributes that control Android
+ instrumentation. The attributes are:
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <code>android:name=&quot;android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner&quot;</code>:
+ {@link android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner} runs test cases. It extends both
+ JUnit test case runner classes and Android instrumentation classes.
+ </li>
+ <li>

+ Running <code>android update test-project</code> does not do this.
+</p>
+<p>
+ To update a test project with the <code>android</code> tool, enter:

+ </td>
+</tr>
+</table>
+<p>
+ If the operation is successful, <code>android</code> lists to STDOUT the names of the files
+ and directories it has created.
+</p>
+<h2 id="CreateTestApp">Creating a Test Application</h2>
+<p>
+ Once you have created a test project, you populate it with a test application.
+ The application does not require an {@link android.app.Activity Activity},
+ although you can define one if you wish. Although your test application can
+ combine Activities, Android test class extensions, JUnit extensions, or
+ ordinary classes, you should extend one of the Android test classes or JUnit classes,
+ because these provide the best testing features.
+</p>
+<p>
+ If you run your tests with {@link android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner}
+ (or a related test runner), then it will run all the methods in each class. You can modify
+ this behavior by using the {@link junit.framework.TestSuite TestSuite} class.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+ To create a test application, start with one of Android's test classes in the Java package
+ {@link android.test android.test}. These extend the JUnit
+ {@link junit.framework.TestCase TestCase} class. With a few exceptions, the Android test
+ classes also provide instrumentation for testing.
+</p>
+<p>
+ For test classes that extend {@link junit.framework.TestCase TestCase}, you probably want to
+ override the <code>setUp()</code> and <code>tearDown()</code> methods:
+</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>
+ <code>setUp()</code>: This method is invoked before any of the test methods in the class.
+ Use it to set up the environment for the test. You can use <code>setUp()</code>
+ to instantiate a new <code>Intent</code> object with the action <code>ACTION_MAIN</code>.
+ You can then use this intent to start the Activity under test.
+ <p class="note">
+ <strong>Note:</strong> If you override this method, call
+ <code>super.setUp()</code> as the first statement in your code.
+ </p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <code>tearDown()</code>: This method is invoked after all the test methods in the class. Use
+ it to do garbage collection and re-setting before moving on to the next set of tests.
+ <p class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> If you override this method, you must call
+ <code>super.tearDown()</code> as the <em>last</em> statement in your code.</p>
+ </li>
+</ul>
+<p>
+ Another useful convention is to add the method <code>testPreConditions()</code> to your test
+ class. Use this method to test that the application under test is initialized correctly. If this
+ test fails, you know that that the initial conditions were in error. When this happens, further
+ test results are suspect, regardless of whether or not the tests succeeded.
+</p>
+<p>
+ To learn more about creating test applications, see the topic <a
+ href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/testing/testing_android.html">Testing and Instrumentation</a>,
+ which provides an overview of Android testing. If you prefer to follow a tutorial,
+ try the <a href="{@docRoot}resources/tutorials/testing/activity_test.html">Activity Testing</a>
+ tutorial, which leads you through the creation of tests for an actual Android application.
+</p>
+<h2 id="RunTestsCommand">Running Tests</h2>
+<p>
+ If you are not developing in Eclipse with ADT, you need to run tests from the command line.
+ You can do this either with Ant or with the {@link android.app.ActivityManager ActivityManager}
+ command line interface.
+</p>
+<p>
+ You can also run tests from the command line even if you are using Eclipse with ADT to develop
+ them. To do this, you need to create the proper files and directory structure in the test
+ project, using the <code>android</code> tool with the option <code>create test-project</code>.
+ This is described in the section <a
+ href="#CreateTestProjectCommand">Working with Test Projects</a>.
+</p>
+<h3 id="RunTestsAnt">Quick build and run with Ant</h3>
+<p>
+ You can use Ant to run all the tests in your test project, using the target
+ <code>run-tests</code>, which is created automatically when you create a test project with
+ the <code>android</code> tool.
+</p>
+<p>
+ This target re-builds your main project and test project if necessary, installs the test
+ application to the current AVD or device, and then runs all the test classes in the test
+ application. The results are directed to <code>STDOUT</code>.
+</p>
+<p>
+ You can update an existing test project to use this feature. To do this, use the
+ <code>android</code> tool with the <code>update test-project</code> option. This is described
+ in the section <a href="#UpdateTestProject">Updating a test project</a>.
+<h3 id="RunTestsDevice">Running tests on a device or emulator</h3>
+<p>
+ When you run tests from the command line with the ActivityManager (<code>am</code>)
+ command-line tool, you get more options for choosing the tests to run than with any other
+ method. You can select individual test methods, filter tests according to their annotation, or
+ specify testing options. Since the test run is controlled entirely from a command line, you can
+ customize your testing with shell scripts in various ways.
+</p>
+<p>
+ You run the <code>am</code> tool on an Android device or emulator using the
+ <a href="{@docRoot}guide/developing/tools/adb.html">Android Debug Bridge</a>
+ (<code>adb</code>) shell. When you do this, you use the ActivityManager
+ <code>instrument</code> option to run your test application using an Android test runner
+ (usually {@link android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner}). You set <code>am</code>
+ options with command-line flags.
+</p>
+<p>
+ To run a test with <code>am</code>:
+</p>
+<ol>
+ <li>
+ If necessary, re-build your main application and test application.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Install your test application and main application Android package files
+ (<code>.apk</code> files) to your current Android device or emulator</li>
+ <li>
+ At the command line, enter:
+<pre>
+$ adb shell am instrument -w &lt;test_package_name&gt;/&lt;runner_class&gt;
+</pre>
+<p>
+ where <code>&lt;test_package_name&gt;</code> is the Android package name of your test
+ application, and <code>&lt;runner_class&gt;</code> is the name of the Android test runner
+ class you are using. The Android package name is the value of the <code>package</code>
+ attribute of the <code>manifest</code> element in the manifest file
+ (<code>AndroidManifest.xml</code>) of your test application. The Android test runner
+ class is usually <code>InstrumentationTestRunner</code>.
+</p>
+<p>Your test results appear in <code>STDOUT</code>.</p>
+ </li>
+</ol>
+<p>
+ This operation starts an <code>adb</code> shell, then runs <code>am instrument</code> in it
+ with the specified parameters. This particular form of the command will run all of the tests
+ in your test application. You can control this behavior with flags that you pass to
+ <code>am instrument</code>. These flags are described in the next section.
+</p>
+<h2 id="AMSyntax">Using the Instrument Command</h2>
+<p>
+ The general syntax of the <code>am instrument</code> command is:
+</p>
+<pre>
+ am instrument [flags] &lt;test_package&gt;/&lt;runner_class&gt;

<h2 id="Overview">Overview</h2>

-At the heart of the Android testing environment is an instrumentation framework that your test application uses to precisely control the application under test. With instrumentation, you can
-set up mock system objects such as Contexts before the main application starts, control your application at various points of its lifecycle, send UI events to the application, and
-examine the application's state during its execution. The instrumentation framework accomplishes this by running both the main application and the test application in the same process.
-</p>
-<p>
- Your test application's manifest file links it to the application under test. The the &lt;instrumentation&gt; attribute in the manifest file points to the application under test
- and also tells Android how to run the test application. This is described in more detail in the section <a href="#InstrumentationTestRunner">Instrumentation Test Runner</a>.

-<!-- Something about test tools in Eclipse and in other IDEs -->
-<p>
- In Android, test applications are themselves Android applications, so you write them in much the same way as the application you are testing. The SDK tools
- help you create a main application project and its test project at the same time. You can run Android tests within Eclipse with ADT or from the command line.
- Eclipse with ADT provides an extensive set of tools for creating tests, running them, and viewing their results. You can also use the <code>adb</code> tool to
- run tests, or use a built-in Ant target.

+<p>In Android, test applications are themselves Android applications, so you
+write them in much the same way as the application you are testing. The SDK
+tools help you create a main application project and its test project at the same
+time. You can run Android tests within Eclipse with ADT or from the command
+line. Eclipse with ADT provides an extensive set of tools for creating tests,
+running them, and viewing their results. You can also use the <code>adb</code>
+tool to run tests, or use a built-in Ant target.</p>

To start testing an Android application, you create a test project for it using Android tools. The tools create the project directory and the files and subdirectories needed.
The tools also create a manifest file that links the application in the test project to the application under test. The procedure for creating a test project in Eclipse with
