Automate UI testing - single app, multiple apps

Building local unit tests (which run on the local JVM) and instrumented unit tests (which run on the device)

Espresso UI unit test framework (cheat sheet):

• Basics; setting up the project
• Working with lists (scrolling to an item or acting on one)
• Working with intents: enables validation and stubbing of intents sent out by the app under test
• WebView UI testing
• Testing async UI-related operations
• Accessibility checking
• Recipes:
  • Match a view next to another view
  • Match a view inside an action bar
  • Assert that a view is not displayed
  • Assert that a view is not present
  • Assert that a data item is not in an adapter
  • Use a custom failure handler
  • Target non-default windows
  • Match a header or footer in list views

UI Automator is for black-box functional UI testing

App Crawler: "Spider"-style execution of your app: "automatically issuing actions (tap, swipe, etc) ... terminates automatically when there are no more unique actions to perform, the app crashes, or a timeout you designate is reached"
