Re: [android-developers] How is everyone configuring their JUnit tests?

Lew, I think it's you who don't comprehend English. I said (and I quote) "store the tests inside of the application itself ".

I was never talking about a single project. I just wanted to try to follow what the site clearly specified in where to put the test code.

You really shouldn't put others down like that. Not sure what axe you have to grind.

JUnitDemo is the application. The tests/ sub-project is the test
suite. You need to have both in your Eclipse workspace (import the
main project, then import the tests/ sub-project).

 

Once again, darrinps, you have to realize that the app project and the test project 

*are two separate projects*.

Failure to realize this has been the keystone to your confusion both for creation of 

the test project and its execution.

It's a *separate* project from the application.

Please read through the documentation thoroughly. I promise it's in there. Pay 

special attention to the command-line "android" commands for test projects.

You've gotten the same message multiple times from multiple people in this thread.

Your very first answer was from Larry Meadors, who wrote:

I believe that is "The Android Way" - you have your application in one 
project and your tests in another.

Really, this is on the web site, in the very pages you've been citing among others.

Now is the time to stop asking for more advice and follow the advice you've already 

received.
