Hi Monkey Runner tool is built on monkey tool.
Monkey internally consists of a server, which can be started using its command --port, which is not being used very often. Monkey Runner tool which runs at host[PC], [which is basically a jython script], starts the monkey server at some port and sends the events to the monkey and monkey executes them from the shell. For e.g., press method you call from jython script is sent to monkey, monkey generates press event and sends it from shell to the application layer.
