Run monkeyrunner without the phone plugged to the PC

i want to run a python stability test-case with monkeyrunner

however i want to run the script without having the mobile plugged to the PC (because what is measuring is battery life)

Normally I use "monkeyrunner mytest.py "

So the idea would be executing the py script with a monkeyrunner inside the phone.Is that possible?

You can use two approaches:

  1. To use monkey command locally on Android device and write your own script (the syntax for this command differs from monkeyrunner syntax)
  2. You can use the approach proposed by @Gabriel Porumb . But you should use the command in the following way:

At first you should run command:

adb tcpip <port>

Then on your device you should check what ip address is assigned to your device (you can check this in the Settings).

After that you have to execute command:

adb connect <your_ip>:<port>

And now you can run your monkeyrunner script.

The monkeyrunner script runs on the PC only. However, if you don't want to connect the phone to the PC via cable, you could try connecting via wifi. Use:

adb connect 192.168.x.x

Or something like that to connect to the phone.
