Deprecated: Deprecated in Java.

Inheritors can access the instrumentation using this.

Return
Instrumentation! instrumentation

injectInsrumentation

Added in API level 1
Deprecated in API level 15
open fun injectInsrumentation(instrumentation: Instrumentation!): Unit

Deprecated: Incorrect spelling, use injectInstrumentation(android.app.Instrumentation) instead.

Injects instrumentation into this test case. This method is called by the test runner during test setup.

Parameters
instrumentation Instrumentation!: the instrumentation to use with this instance

injectInstrumentation

Added in API level 5
Deprecated in API level 24
open fun injectInstrumentation(instrumentation: Instrumentation!): Unit

Deprecated: Deprecated in Java.

launchActivity

Added in API level 1
fun <T : Activity!> launchActivity(
    pkg: String!,
    activityCls: Class<T>!,
    extras: Bundle!
): T

    activityCls: Class<T>!,
    intent: Intent!
): T

Deprecated: Deprecated in Java.

runTestOnUiThread

Added in API level 3
Deprecated in API level 24
open fun runTestOnUiThread(r: Runnable!): Unit

Deprecated: Deprecated in Java.

Helper for running portions of a test on the UI thread. Note, in most cases it is simpler to annotate the test method with android.test.UiThreadTest, which will run the entire test method on the UI thread. Use this method if you need to switch in and out of the UI thread to perform your test.

Parameters
r Runnable!: runnable containing test code in the Runnable#run() method

sendKeys

Added in API level 1
open fun sendKeys(keysSequence: String!): Unit

Deprecated: Deprecated in Java.

Sends a series of key events through instrumentation and waits for idle. The sequence of keys is a string containing the key names as specified in KeyEvent, without the KEYCODE_ prefix. For instance: sendKeys("DPAD_LEFT A B C DPAD_CENTER"). Each key can be repeated by using the N* prefix. For instance, to send two KEYCODE_DPAD_LEFT, use the following: sendKeys("2*DPAD_LEFT").

Parameters
keysSequence String!: The sequence of keys.

sendKeys

Added in API level 1
open fun sendKeys(vararg keys: Int): Unit

Deprecated: Deprecated in Java.

Sends a series of key events through instrumentation and waits for idle. For instance: sendKeys(KEYCODE_DPAD_LEFT, KEYCODE_DPAD_CENTER).

Parameters
keys Int: The series of key codes to send through instrumentation.

sendRepeatedKeys

Added in API level 1
open fun sendRepeatedKeys(vararg keys: Int): Unit

Deprecated: Deprecated in Java.

Sends a series of key events through instrumentation and waits for idle. Each key code must be preceded by the number of times the key code must be sent. For instance: sendRepeatedKeys(1, KEYCODE_DPAD_CENTER, 2, KEYCODE_DPAD_LEFT).

Parameters
keys Int: The series of key repeats and codes to send through instrumentation.
