I feel like it would be great to include these links in whatever wiki page people refer to when writing new tests :) Margaret On Wed, Sep 4, 2013 at 10:28 AM, Chenxia Liu < [email protected] > wrote: As part of the testing framework rework (bug 910791), and partly because it's just overdue, we've upgraded the Robotium jar from 3.6 to 4.2. There are a lot of good changes in the new version (most saliently, better waiting/timing methods and UI manipulation) - see the changelog for specific details [1]. Since we haven't ported the old tests to using the new APIs yet (bug 912590), when writing tests, first take a look at the changelog or the new API Javadocs [2] to see if there's a proper method for doing what you need (especially for timing or waiting in tests), and use that instead of existing (probably hacky) code in the tests.
