LinkedIn has decided to release as open source Test Butler, a tool that aims to provide a reliable Android software testing experience. Test Butler is a two-part Android project: it includes a library that your test code can depend on, as well as a companion Android app apk that is installed on your Android emulator before running tests. LinkedIn runs over one million tests each day using Test Butler. They believe that Test Butler can provide a benefit to anyone running Android tests as UI testing on Android can be unstable for a variety of reasons: tests could depend on being run in a certain order, or depend on some shared application state that may not be reset between tests. Test Butler stabilizes the Android emulator, to help prevent test failures caused by emulator issues. It also handles changing global emulator settings and holds relevant permissions so your Android app doesn’t have to. More information on http://ift.tt/2bLT1ZX
