Description

To test:

  • Screen interaction (e.g. clicking a list entry opens that apps details page)
  • Screen rotation
  • Using the navigation drawer to move about

The tools of choice:

  • Mockito
  • Espresso

Style:

  • Instrumentationt tests belong in src/androidTest/...
  • Test classes should follow the package structure as the classes they want to test.
  • Test classes should have the same name as their test target, just postfixed with "Test".
  • Method names testMethodToTest for basic behavior and testMethodToTest_forSpecificCases
