Hi, I've recently started implementing tests for some of my activities and seeing how far I could take the unit tests vs the integration tests. I was pleasantly surprised to find that I could actually do A LOT more than what would seem apparent, at least from what could be gleaned from documentation and posts. However, I ran into some surprising limitations while testing Spinners, particularly the OnItemSelectedListener.
I say surprising because in the same activity I have an EditText that has a TextChangedListener (a TextWatcher). This can be tested successfully, meaning that I can set the text executes the code in the afterTextChanged with no problems. When testing the Spinner, I have found that calling setSelection() has no effect, calling getSelectedItem() immediately afterwards returns null, and the OnItemSelectedListener is never executed. This is when calling it from both the Activity itself or from the test. I also tried all of the different combinations of threads (runOnMainSync, runOnUiThread, etc), to no avail. Is this simply a limitation of Unit tests? Why does the text listener work? Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
