Hi,
i am working on android CTS test, i am getting API check time out error whenever i start test plan CTS, i followed the below steps for CTS test and also i mentioned my doubts.
CTS test steps :
1. Please download and install the Android 1.6 SDK on your machine.
2. Your phone should be running a user build (Android 1.6 and later) from
source.android.com
3. Please refer to this link on the Android developer site and set up your device
accordingly.
4. Make sure that your device has been flashed with a user build (Android 1.6 and
later) before you run CTS.
5. You need to download the TTS files via Settings > Speech synthesis > Install
voice data before running CTS tests. (Note that this assumes you have Android
Market installed on the device, if not you will need to install the files manually via
adb)
6. It is advisable to log in to the device with a test Google account, not an account
that you actually use.
7. Make sure the device has a SD card plugged in and the card is empty. Warning:
CTS may modify/erase data on the SD card plugged in to the device.
8. Do a factory data reset on the device (Settings > SD Card & phone storage >
Factory data reset). Warning: This will erase all user data from the phone.
9. Make sure no lock pattern is set on the device (Settings > Security & location >
Require Pattern should be unchecked.
Google Confidential
10. Make sure the "Screen Timeout" is set to "Never Timeout" (Settings > Sound &
Display > Screen Timeout should be set to "Never Timeout".
11. Make sure the "Stay Awake" development option is checked (Settings >
Applications > Development > Stay awake).
12. Make sure Settings > Application > Development > Allow mock locations is set
to true.
13. Make sure the device is at the home screen at the start of CTS (Press the home
button).
14. While a device is running tests, it must not be used for any other tasks.
15. Do not press any keys on the device while CTS is running. Pressing keys or
touching the screen of a test device will interfere with the running tests and may
lead to test failures.
doubts :
1) is it necessary to follow all the steps ?
2) for step 5, i copied the voice data to the SD card and if i follow step 8 it will erase all contents of SD card so how can i follow both step 5 and step 8 at a time...?
