Test Google Chrome on Android using WebDriver

We have a requirement to test Google Chrome on Android Emulator using WebDriver. I am using WebDriver and I am able to test on default browser by installing Selenium Server on Android Emulator. But when I set desired capabilities as chrome and platform Android using RemoteWebDriver, I am able to start tests but it opens default browser and not chrome. Any ideas!?

I am able to run test on Chrome on android device using Chrome driver. I am using QAF (formerly ISFW) - Selenium Framework and i provided following configuration:

selenium.defaultBrowser=chromeDriver

chrome.aditional.capabilities={"chromeOptions":{"androidPackage":"com.android.chrome"}}

For non ISFW user detailed information is available on Chrome driver wiki page.

At GTAC 2013 Ken Kania (a Google Engineer) announced the alpha of the Chrome Driver for Android during his presentation. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/14xU207jL1aepO_8-WrkEcSIPUscUjak5jtxMaUoMegg/pub?start=false&loop=false#slide=id.gbe6ac7bc_0129

The documentation was recently moved to the following site, it's still spartan https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/getting-started/getting-started---android

This is not yet possible with Android.

Currently you can only run webdriver tests against the apk built by Selenium, which is not the Google Chrome browser.
