The objective of this article is to test the Calculator application that we have developed in the article titled “A Simple Calculator in Android“. We are using Android Testing Framework to test the Calculator application.
The class, ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2 will be extended to create a testcase class in this application.
This test application is developed in Eclipse (4.2.1) with ADT plugin (20.0.3) and Android SDK (R20.0.3).
1. What to Test
We know that, our calculator application can do four operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. So in this test application, we will test all these four operations of the calculator.
2. Download the application “SimpleCalculator” from the given below link
This is the application, that we are going to test.
3. Extract the downloaded file and import into Eclipse IDE
4. Create an Android Test Project with the given below details
Project Name : SimpleCalculatorTest
Location : Default Location
Build Target : Android 1.6
Test Target : SimpleCalculator (The application downloaded in the above step)
5. Create a TestCase class namely MainActivityTest with the given below code in the file src/in/wptrafficanalyzer/simplecalculator/test/MainActivityTest.java
package in.wptrafficanalyzer.simplecalculator.test;
import in.wptrafficanalyzer.simplecalculator.MainActivity;
import android.test.ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2;
import android.test.TouchUtils;
import android.test.suitebuilder.annotation.SmallTest;
import android.view.KeyEvent;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.Spinner;
public class MainActivityTest extends ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2<MainActivity> {
/** The Calculator activity to be tested */
MainActivity mActivity;
/** Operator of the Calculator activity */
Spinner mOperator;
/** Operand1 */
EditText mNumber1 ;
/** Operand2 */
EditText mNumber2 ;
/** Result */
EditText mResult ;
/** Button to perform calculation */
Button mBtnResult;
public MainActivityTest() {
super("in.wptrafficanalyzer.simplecalculator",MainActivity.class);
}
@Override
protected void setUp() throws Exception {
super.setUp();
/** Starting Calculator Activity */
mActivity = getActivity();
/** Getting a reference to Calculator Operator */
mOperator = (Spinner)mActivity.findViewById(
in.wptrafficanalyzer.simplecalculator.R.id.sprOperator);
/** Getting reference to Operand1 */
mNumber1 = (EditText)mActivity.findViewById(
in.wptrafficanalyzer.simplecalculator.R.id.edtNumber1);
/** Getting reference to Operand2 */
mNumber2 = (EditText)mActivity.findViewById(
in.wptrafficanalyzer.simplecalculator.R.id.edtNumber2);
/** Getting reference to Result */
mResult = (EditText)mActivity.findViewById(
in.wptrafficanalyzer.simplecalculator.R.id.edtResult);
/** Getting reference to the calculation performing button */
mBtnResult = (Button)mActivity.findViewById(
in.wptrafficanalyzer.simplecalculator.R.id.btnResult);
}
