Hi, before reporting this as a bug, I thought I'd ask here (I also posted on stackoverflow with no reply so far, but the Google developers don't seem to be actively posting there anyway -- http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3214531/how-to-send-key-events-to-a-headless-emulator-in-an-instrumentation-test).
So the problem is: We run a build server in our company on a headless Linux, so we have to start the emulator with the -no-window flag when running the instrumentation tests. When this flag is set, however, the InstrumentationTestCase.sendKeys() method fails -- not with an exception, but there is an obscure message in the device log: Permission denied: injecting key event from pid 646 uid 10026 to window Window{43d55100 paused=false} owned by uid 1000 this works fine on a "normal" emulator which does have a window. We already tried fumbling with the INJECT_EVENTS permission, process affinity and sharedUserId, but nothing works. This basically makes our test suite useless on a build server, which are typically headless. Is this a bug or are we missing something?
