Starting the Android Tests

Prepare the Android device to receive NativeDriver requests

Enable port forwarding to bind the device port to a port on your PC. This allows the NativeDriver client to communicate with the device through a normal TCP connection.

[Commandline]: adb forward tcp:54129 tcp:54129

This restarts the app with instrumentation enabled. The NativeDriver ServerInstrumentation class listens for requests to drive the app on a device port in a JSON Wire Protocol, which is almost identical to that protocol used by Selenium WebDriver.

[Commandline]: adb shell am instrument com.rapidftr/com.google.android.testing.nativedriver.server.ServerInstrumentation

Notes

There is currently a problem with trying to automate any Android version less than 2.2.
