[Android] Adding Robotium to Platform Tests

[Joe Bowser <bo...@gmail.com>]

Hey

I'm adding some more messages to Cordova for the plugins to handle,
namely onScrollChanged, and some of the Context Menu plugins, and
since I'm currently writing tests, I'm wondering how we feel about
adding Robotium as a dependency for testing.  I think that it's
appropriate for our needs, and the last time that I checked the
licences looked good, but I'm wondering what other people think about
this before I add it.

BTW: I did do a talk on this at OSCON back in June, and here are the
slides.  They are very out-of-date, and was before Fil left for
SauceLabs: http://slid.es/bowserj/oscon2013

FWIW, I like that Robotium has an Apache 2.0 license.

Will do.  I'll also look into Appium, but I have to admit that I'm a
bit more skeptical of it.

Ya I see no reason why not. Joe you should talk to Lorin about this. I
think he's going to be working w/ Fil to get end to end Appium tests
running shortly too. (More to follow to the list on that from Lorin / Fil.)
