When you run automated Android tests with Eclipse or from the command line, you get text output, which isn't good for reporting purposes. If you run a large set of test cases with automated build, the text report isn't very helpful. Fortunately, Android CTS generates test reports in XML with accompanying XSL to make it look nice in a browser. To run your own tests with Android CTS: Download Android CTS Make a new directory MyRepository under android-cts , alongside the existing repository directory. Copy host_config.xml from repository to MyRepository Create directory plans under MyRepository , add a test plan ( MyTests.xml ): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <TestPla... Create directory testcases under MyRepository . Copy TestDeviceSetup.apk from repository/testcases to MyRepository/testcases Under MyRepository/testcases , create a test...

The Android unit test framework is based on JUnit 3 , not JUnit 4. Test cases have to extend junit.framework.TestCase or a subclass (such as android.test.InstrumentationTestCase ). Tests are identified by public methods whose name starts with test , not methods annotated with @Test (as in JUnit 4). An Android test suite is packaged as an APK, just like the application being tested. To create a test package, first you need to identify the application package it is testing. Google suggests to put the test package source in a directory named tests/ alongside the src/ directory of the main application. At runtime, Android instrumentation loads both the test package and the application under test into the same process. Therefore, the tests can invoke methods on...

In Android.mk , you can define LOCAL_JARJAR_RULES like this: LOCAL_JARJAR_RULES := $(LOCAL_PATH)/jarjar-rules.t... and in jarjar-rules.txt define a rule like this: rule org.bouncycastle.** com.android.@0 The build will change all org.bouncycastle to com.android.org.bouncycastle . Therefore, in your classes which are dependent on the library produced, the import statements should look like: import com.android.org.bouncycastle...

Linux services startup order in general: kernel runs /sbin/init /sbin/init reads /etc/inittab and runs script defined by this line: si::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS switches to runlevel defined by id:3:initdefault: which causes /etc/init.d/rc to be called with the current run level. /etc/init.d/rc calls the scripts under the /etc/rc <current_run_level> .d directory (symbolic links to actual scripts under /etc/init.d/ ) in this order: The KILL scripts first (scripts with name starting with K, i.e., rc?.d/Knn name ): "script_name stop" then, the START scripts (scripts with name starting with S, i.e., rc?.d/Snn name ): "script_name start" Within each group (KILL or START), run scripts from lower priority number (i.e., the nn in the symlink name) to higher priority number. The Upstart init daemon does not use /etc/inittab . Instead, it...

Both include and require include and evaluate the file specified as argument. The only difference is, when the included file cannot be found, include emits a warning while require emits a fatal error. Example: <?php include('non-existing-file'); require(... Outputs: PHP Warning: include(non-existing-file): failed t... Suppress error with @ : <?php @include('non-existing-file'); echo "A... Outputs: After include

You get "permission denied" error from Apache HTTPD for a page. And you checked file/directory permissions (the whole directory path, not just the file) and everything in httpd.conf . If everything seemed right, then SELinux may be blocking the access. Open /var/log/httpd/error_log , you may see a line like this: [Wed Apr 13 15:50:35 2011] [notice] SELinux poli...

If Command Extensions are enabled (which is enabled by default), then there are several dynamic environment variables that can be expanded but which don't show up in the list of variables displayed by SET . These variable values are computed dynamically each time the value of the variable is expanded (but see example below). If the user explicitly defines a variable with one of these names, then that definition will override the dynamic one described below: %CD% - expands to the current directory string. %DATE% - expands to current date using same format as DATE command. %TIME% - expands to current time using same format as TIME command. %RANDOM% - expands to a random decimal number between 0 and 32767. %ERRORLEVEL% - expands to the...

cURL is a command line tool for transferring files with URL syntax. The main purpose and use for cURL is to automate unattended file transfers or sequences of operations. It's really easy to see HTTP headers with curl: C:\>curl --head http://www.google.com HTTP/1.0 ... or, headers and page together (dump headers to stdout): $ curl --dump-header - http://www.google.com HTTP/...

Use useradd to add a user (the switches are not required, but it's a good idea to give them. For example, without -m you'd create a user without a home directory): # -d switch specifies user home directory # -m ... You also need to use the passwd command to set a new password before the user can log in. To delete a user, use the userdel command: userdel demo
