This is fine. Thanks for the info. However, I've been writing some tests using ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2 and an Activity that depending on an extra parameter displays the Toast or not, and the results seems to be different. If the Toast is displayed the instance count constantly increases but if the Toast is not displayed it remains controlled. Details and code can be found here: http://dtmilano.blogspot.com/2009/07/android-testing-on-android-platform-is.html Comments, suggestions and corrections are gladly welcome.
