how to run all (unit and instrumented) tests with one click in Android Studio

Question

I am developing an Android app in Android Studio. I have unit tests and instrumented tests.

I want to run them all to see if I broke something.

Right now my workflow is:

• go to Project view
  • navigate to ${app}/src/androidTest/java/
  • right-click that node and select Run 'All Tests'
  • select my device
  • run instrumented tests

then

• go to Project view
  • navigate to ${app}/src/androidTest/java/${package}
  • right-click that node and select Run 'Tests in ${package}'
  • run unit tests

What I am really looking for is a big green button that runs all of the tests and reports back the result of OK/FAILED for both unit and instrumented tests together. How can I do that?

Answer 1

Here's how to make 1 button that runs both all unit tests and instrumentation/UI tests:

Steps

1. Create a Run Configuration > Gradle > Named: Unit Tests
2. Create a Run Configuration > Android Instrumentation Tests > Named Unit + UI Tests
3. For the Unit + UI Tests configuration > Before Launch Option > Add Run Another Configuration > Unit Tests
4. Run your new Unit + UI Tests configuration. Your Unit tests and UI Tests will both run but they will be in separate tabs, since each tab has specific tooling options.

Same Steps as Above but with pictures:

1. Create a Run Configuration > Gradle > Named: Unit Tests

2. Create a Run Configuration > Android Instrumentation Tests > Named Unit + UI Tests

3. For the Unit + UI Tests configuration > Before Launch Option > Add Run Another Configuration > Select the newly created Unit Tests configuration

4. Run your new Unit + UI Tests. Your Unit tests and UI Tests will both run but they will be in separate tabs, since each tab has specific tooling options.

Answer 2

Use this way for all modules in a project.

1.Select Edit Configurations from Android Stduio

2.Add Gradle task

3. Set this config

cleanTestDebugUnitTest testDebugUnitTest

--tests "*"

Answer 3

You cannot start both tests at the same time...

But you can create two big green buttons.

1. Go to your project files and right click on ../app/src/androidTest/java

2. Then right click on ../app/src/test/java

3. Enjoy! =)
