1<p> 2 This sample is the test application for the <a href="../Alarm/index.html">Alarm</a> 3 sample application. It tests the application's <code>AlarmService</code> service. 4</p> 5<p> 6 The test application uses the 7 <a href="../../../reference/android/test/ServiceTestCase.html"> 8 <code>ServiceTestCase</code></a> test case class, 9 which extends the JUnit <a href="../../../reference/junit/framework/TestCase.html"> 10 <code>TestCase</code></a> class. The test runner is 11 <a href="../../../reference/android/test/InstrumentationTestRunner.html"> 12 <code>InstrumentationTestRunner</code></a>. 13</p> 14<p> 15 The application shows how to set up a test application project, 16 how to create the <a href="AndroidManifest.html"><code>AndroidManifest.xml</code></a> 17 file for a test application, and how to set up a test case class for a service. The 18 test case class, <a href="src/com/android/example/newalarm/ServiceAlarmTest.html"> 19 <code>AlarmServiceTest</code></a>, contains tests that demonstrate the following 20 Android test patterns: 21</p> 22 <ul> 23 <li> 24 Test setup: The <code>setUp()</code> method re-initializes the state of the 25 service under test before each test is run. 26 </li> 27 <li> 28 Service start: The <code>Service.testServiceCreate()</code> test confirms that the 29 service starts correctly and initializes the variables it needs to provide its 30 services. 31 </li> 32 </ul> 33<p> 34 The <a href="AndroidManifest.html">manifest</a> declares an <code><instrumentation></code> 35 element that links the test application with the application under test. Specifically, the 36 element's <code>android:name</code> attribute specifies <code>InstrumentationTestRunner</code> 37 as the instrumentation to use. The <code>android:targetPackage</code> attribute specifies 38 <code>com.android.example.newalarm</code> as the name of the Android package that contains the 39 service under test. 40</p> 41<p class="note"> 42 <strong>Note:</strong> <code>AlarmServiceTest.java</code> uses the Java package name 43 <code>com.example.android.newalarm</code>, which is the same package used by service under 44 test, <code>AlarmService.java</code>. This allows the test class to access members in the 45 service under test that are defined with package visibility. To prevent conflicts, though, 46 the generated java file <code>R.java</code> for <code>AlarmServiceTest</code> uses the 47 Java package name <code>com.example.android.newalarm.test</code>. For the same reason, the 48 Android package name for the test application (specified in the manifest file), is 49 <code>com.example.android.newalarm.test</code>. 50</p> 51
