I am using emulator nexus 4 with marshmallow.
when i open google play using the browser. and search for any google app, e.g : gmail. it shows that the app already installed , although that i couldn't find the app in the emulator.
To use this apps install Google Play on the Genymotion. Check this tutorial How do you install Google frameworks (Play, Accounts, etc.) on a Genymotion virtual device?. After you've installed google play you can now launch default google apps like mail and hangouts, etc.

I am trying to download an app from virtual emulator using google play. Google play list all my real devices that I have used my email on and asks to download this app to one of them. I want to install it in the mobile emulator instead, is this even possible ?
Google play emulator download
Yes this is possible,
Open the AVD manager in android studio
create a virtual device
choose a device definition with the play store icon
Using this AVD you'll be able to login and access the play store. You can then install apps on this device via the browser too
If your emulator having the "PlayStore" then you can sign with your Gmail account, and can download the app likewise the real device,

AWS Device Farm does not support the Galaxy app store as a default app on Device Farm. We would recommend that you either bring your own app via an APK file or download your app from the Google Play store after logging into your Google account.

I am getting an error that google play services not installed in you device when I am trying to run my code on my android emulator. Although the code is woking fine on my physical android device.
You should use an emulator with google API like attached screenshot:
Those with (Google APIs) tag beside them have google play service installed.
Probably your device image does not come with Play Sotre services installed.
Create another device emulator with an image that the Play Sotre services are already installed. Those images will have a checked icon in Play Store column:
Use geny motion. Its much better than default emulators.
You can download one from here
I am new to android app development. I want to create an intent to launch Skype. In order to test this, I assume that the emulator must have Skype already installed.
I tried to launch the play store on the emulator to get the Skype App. But the Google Playstore, when launched on emulator it complains that there is no wifi or data connection.
How can I get the emulator to connect to the host wifi(Wifi which the laptop is connected to?)?
Is there a another way to get Skype app on emulator without playstore?
Thank you
Assuming that you're using the latest Android Studio and Emulator, you could get the Skype application APK file from other sites and drag it onto the emulator for it install the application.
However I do suggest as #CommonsWare stated, use a physical Android Device instead of an emulator as some (probably most) apps won't work correctly due to Google Play Services being missing. You could try the images in the Android SDK that contain part of the Google Play Services within them, it's worth a shot but not something to rely on for the long run.
I am trying to test my app on genymotion and am using parse as a backend.
Whenever I try to login, android displays an error: Unfortunately, the app has stopped working.
The same happens with virtualbox.
However, if I use the emulator, it works and login also works on Kindle fire jelly bean.
Any ideas on what could be wrong?
PS - If I use the internet, it works on both virtual box and genymotion.
You should add the logcat to help better. If you use google play services, you must install this in your genymotion.
You can try this:
