I am attempting to write some JUnit tests for my android application. The application is a service.
I have tried several things to get the ServiceTestCase to launch the service but it fails to.
HOWEVER, when i debug the ServiceTestCase it WILL launch the service. I belive this is because the ServiceTestCase is calling setup and not giving enough time for the service to launch before it kills it...
I am not completely sure, this is the first time i have ever used junit testing for android. VERY new to this. Any suggestions on what i can do to fix this problem?
I was thinking of creating some timer loop or something, but that seems REALLY dirty. Would like a much cleaner aproach.
Android Manifest for the service.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="dataservice.server"
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="10" />

<action android:name="android.intent.action.USER_PRESENT"></action>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED"></action>
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
</application>
</manifest>
The ServiceTestCase i am attempting.
public class Publish extends ServiceTestCase<DataServer> {
private final static String TAG = "Publish Unit Test";
private Context mSystemContext;
public Publish() {
super(DataServer.class);
}
public Publish(Class<DataServer> serviceClass) {
super(serviceClass);
}
#Override
protected void setUp() throws Exception {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.setUp();
// this is where i am attempting to start the service.
// i have attempted other methods, but none of those worked either.
startService(new Intent(this.getContext(), DataServer.class));
}
public void testPublish() {
}
}
I was referencing one of the dependant projects incorrectly. Once this was fixed, it resolved the issue. So, check and make sure you are referencing your projects correctly if you are having the same issue.

I have a question pretty similar to this one, but it was asked 6 years ago I thought that maybe something has chnaged.
Basically I want no notify user when signal is lost. I've implemented class that inherits from PhoneStateListener and OnServiceStateChanged method in it. Also I have a service that runs in background and listens to changes. Everything works fine as long, as screen is on.
But apparently Android do not invoke OnServiceStateChanged when screen is off. Is there any way to get Android.Telephony.PhoneState directly from service or maybe some other workaround?
My code so far is below:

Try to create BroadcastReciever Class
https://developer.android.com/guide/components/broadcasts
and change the AndroidManifest.xml file, I think you required following permission
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE"/>
After creating Broadcast Receiver class insert following code snippet in AndroidManifest.xml
<receiver android:name="//BroadcastReceiver Class Name" android:enabled="true">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.PHONE_STATE">
</action>
</intent-filter>

I am trying to develop a ToDo application which helps user make notes as soon as call ends. In general life we are told many things to be done on phone. For example : buy grocery on way back to office.
I am facing difficulty in starting this application. I am using BroadcastReceiver How should I implement onReceive() method?
AndroidManifest.xml
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.your"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
<application android:icon="#drawable/icon" android:label="#string/app_name">

</receiver>
</application>
BroadcasrReceiver
public class CallTracker extends BroadcastReceiver {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();
}
}
Look for the 'state' in the bundle. When the state changes from OFFHOOK to IDLE start your application.
From activity you can use this example
I have been developing a simple application without UI using broadcast receiver.
The app doesn't contain any ACTIVITIES.
I have given necessary permissions.
I took the code from this url:http://developerandro.blogspot.in/2013/09/check-internet-connection-using.html
The app shows a toast "Not connected to internet" when I click change wifi state. It's working correctly.
But my question is There is an activity registered in my manifest file which I don't have. So I delete those lines from my manifest. Then no toasts are shown and I checked the logs too. No output on changing wifi state.
Why this happened? Please help me guys...
Here is the manifest file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.broadcast_internetcheck"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="8"
android:targetSdkVersion="17" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name="com.example.broadcast_internetcheck.MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<receiver
android:name="com.example.broadcast_internetcheck.NetworkChangeReceiver"
android:label="NetworkChangeReceiver" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.net.conn.CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE" />
<action android:name="android.net.wifi.WIFI_STATE_CHANGED" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
</application>
</manifest>
Here is my Broadcastreceiver class:
public class NetworkChangeReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver{
#Override
public void onReceive(final Context context, final Intent intent) {
String status = NetworkUtil.getConnectivityStatusString(context);
/*Above line will return the status of wifi */
Toast.makeText(context, status, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
You will need to create a dummy activity for a Service which will be triggered in the onCreate() of the dummy, maybe a non-UI with finish() .
Without that the required implementation is not possible, esp above Android 3.1.
http://developer.android.com/about/versions/android-3.1.html#launchcontrols
Run only a background service when application start
Start android application without activity
http://commonsware.com/blog/2011/07/13/boot-completed-regression-confirmed.html
And for more on Service:
http://developer.android.com/guide/components/services.html
https://developer.android.com/training/run-background-service/create-service.html
http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/AndroidServices/article.html
You can use service instead. But showing Toast through service bit complicated instead you can show notification through service for No Internet Connection.
If you don't want any activity check this answer. Actually you would have to create service for this: link
Create a transparent activity. Launch the toast while the activity is active and immediately finish the activity.
I am working on an app called TobaccoRoad that uses a library project called BestApproach. It uses a Parse backend to display custom generated content and handle push notifications. Everything was working pretty alright until a few days ago, when I must have messed up some settings somewhere and it no longer seems to be making the connection to the parse systems. I'm quite sure it's a local issue, because my second tester phone, which has not had updated code pushed to it in a few days, is still receiving notifications and can view that custom content.
The weird thing is, even after clearing my workspace and starting fresh from the (definitely good) code my employer gave me, and following all the tutorials and troubleshooting guides on Parse.com (see https://parse.com/docs/push_guide#installations/Android; https://parse.com/tutorials/android-push-notifications) I'm still not connecting to Parse. I haven't made any significant changes that I can recall, so I'm at a loss as to what might be causing this.
I know it's not an issue of a bad applicationID or clientKey, because even substituting random strings into the Parse.initialize call gave the same results, and a logcat error about not being able to authenticate.
Here are the relevant bits from my manifest files, first for the library project...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.bestapproach.lib"
android:versionCode="8"
android:versionName="1.6.1">
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="7" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"></uses-permission>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"></uses-permission>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE"></uses-permission>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"></uses-permission>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIBRATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<application android:icon="#drawable/app_icon" android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/Theme.BA" >
<activity android:name="com.bestapproach.lib.SplashActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:configChanges="orientation"
android:theme="#style/Theme.BA.Splash">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<!--Declarations for all of my Activities...-->
<service android:name="com.parse.PushService" />
<receiver android:name="com.parse.ParseBroadcastReceiver">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.USER_PRESENT" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
</application>
</manifest>
And the manifest is exactly the same for my dependent project, with the exception of where I define a custom receiver at the end:
<service android:name="com.parse.PushService" />
<receiver android:name="com.parse.ParseBroadcastReceiver">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.USER_PRESENT" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
<receiver android:name="com.bestapproach.lib.MyCustomReceiver">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.bestapproach.lib.UPDATE_STATUS" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
And here's the code for the onCreate() method in my main activity (SplashActivity) where the Parse service is initialized:
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash);
String parseClientId = getString(R.string.parse_client_id);
String parseAppId = getString(R.string.parse_app_id);
//debug output
Log.v("parse should be initializing...", parseAppId+" "+parseClientId);
if (!("".equals(parseClientId) || "".equals(parseAppId))) {
Parse.initialize(this, parseAppId, parseClientId);
PushService.subscribe(this, "", MenuActivity.class);
PushService.setDefaultPushCallback(this, SplashActivity.class);
ParseInstallation.getCurrentInstallation().saveInBackground();
ParseAnalytics.trackAppOpened(getIntent());
final Activity a = this;
// Fetches content if it doesn't exist.
StoreManager sm = StoreManager.getInstance(a);
ParseStoreManager psm = ParseStoreManager.getInstance(a);
return;
}
}
Suggestions I've found that seem like they may be on track with what I need include running Parse.initialize() in the onCreate() of every activity, which I don't really want to do as there are a lot of them and that would be a lot of duplicated code, or generating an Application object and running it from there. Everything I've tried in relation to that has ended up breaking once I add it to my manifest file, due to TobaccoRoad's dependencies on the library project.
I know, it's a lot to dig through, but any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks everybody.
Possible fix:
Change this line
if (!("".equals(parseClientId) || "".equals(parseAppId))) {
Parse.initialize(this, parseAppId, parseClientId);
to this:
if (!("".equals(parseClientId) || "".equals(parseAppId))) {
Parse.initialize(SplashActivity.this, parseAppId, parseClientId);
the issue is that
ParseAnalytics.trackAppOpened(getIntent());
accepts the intent from that activity from your SplashActivity and from the application scope
Also, you initialize parse from the activity which we generally don't do.
We try initialize parse from the Application class so it has the context of the Application scope and not of the Activity Scope.
I recommend you to create an Application class and include the parse code in the onCreate of the Application...which you would need to do only once.
Or, you can create some BaseActivities and make all your activities in the application extend to that. This will save you from writing duplicate code...this is just in case you are bound not to create an Application class.
Pardon me for anything wrong...I am new in answering.
I have an already built application and I want to add a feature that has to be started when a call ends.
How can I achieve that?
I thought that declaring in my manifest something like this
<activity android:name="Filter">
<intent-filter>
<category android:name="android.intent.SOMETHING" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
could be enough, but what kind of Intent I have to put on the filter?
Looking in the documentation I found only the intents that detects when a call is started.
Is what I'm looking for possible?
I have done this using a broadcast receiver. Works! code looks like this -
AndroidManifest.xml
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.gopi"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
<application android:icon="#drawable/icon" android:label="#string/app_name">
<receiver android:name=".IncomingCallTracker">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.PHONE_STATE" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
</application>
</manifest>
The IncomingCallTracker code snippet looks like -
public class IncomingCallTracker extends BroadcastReceiver {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();
Set<String> keys = bundle.keySet();
for (String key : keys) {
Log.i("MYAPP##", key + "="+ bundle.getString(key));
}
}
}
You can look for the key 'state' in the bundle. When its value is 'IDLE' it means call has ended and you can perform whatever action you want to based on this.
You can use the PhoneStateLisenter to listen out for changes in the call state.
So you listen for the LISTEN_CALL_STATE change.
With the onCallStateChanged method.
So when the state changes from OFFHOOK to IDLE start your application
