RoboGherk

RoboGherk provides a cucumber-like syntax for testing Android apps. It runs on top of Android instrumentation test cases inside the Android emulator. RoboGherk Features subclass the Feature class, provide the starting activity, and specify steps with Given(), When(), Then(), and And(). For example:

package com.leandog.robogherk.exercises;

import com.leandog.robogherk.Feature;
import com.leandog.robogherk.example_app.FirstActivity;

public class MyFeature extends Feature {

    public MyFeature() {
        super(FirstActivity.class);
    }

    public void test_A_working_scenario() {
        Given("I am on the HelloRoboGherk activity");
        Then("my 'parameter' should work too");
        And("things that should have occured in setup have");
        And("I go to another screen");
    }
}

Steps are dynamically loaded from MyFeatureSteps; for example, the first Given() line invokes the I_am_on_the_HelloRoboGherk_activity() method.

Building

• Run 'ant build' from a clone of the git repository.

Development

We did incremental development using an existing app. We didn't write unit tests for everything, but all new features should be test-driven.

The exercises are acceptance tests on RoboGherk that run against the included example app.

Note on Patches/Pull Requests

• Fork the project.
• Test-drive your feature addition or bug fix. If you need help with unit-testing Android, start a conversation by email. We'll help.
• Send us a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
