Android command-line testing

Question

I'm attempting to set up the android testing framework.

I have a project in ~/boldapp/BOLDApp/

I decided I should have by test project in ~/boldapp/BOLDApp/tests as described in http://developer.android.com/tools/testing/testing_android.html#TestProjects

I have done the following as per http://developer.android.com/tools/testing/testing_otheride.html :

I run android create test-project -m ../ -n BOLDAppTest -p tests

I now want to run the Instrumentation test case MainActivityTest.java that was generated.

When I run ant run-tests, as suggested, I get:

BUILD FAILED
Target "run-tests" does not exist in the project "BOLDAppTest".

When I alternatively run ant test part of the output is:

test:
     [echo] Running tests ...
     [exec] INSTRUMENTATION_STATUS: id=ActivityManagerService
     [exec] INSTRUMENTATION_STATUS: Error=Unable to find instrumentation info for: ComponentInfo{au.edu.unimelb.boldapp.tests/android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner}
     [exec] INSTRUMENTATION_STATUS_CODE: -1
     [exec] android.util.AndroidException: INSTRUMENTATION_FAILED:

I get the same error as above when I run adb shell am instrument -w au.edu.unimelb.boldapp.tests/android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner:

as well as when I run:

adb shell am instrument -w au.edu.unimelb.boldapp/android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner

How do I run the test?

you must.haven't installed test apk successfully in your device. you can check by execute adb shell "pm list instrumentation".

I get no output when I run adb shell pm list instrumentation. I didn't realise I needed a device. When I run "ant emma debug install test" it works.

Congratulations. But do you know what does emma means for?
