Is it possible to test apps from Intel Xdk using the android emulator?

I wonder whether it is possible to test a Cordova project made with Intel Xdk on an Android emulator rather than a device on USB or the Intel embedded emulator.

Yes. You will have to install and run the APK file you build onto the Android Emulator. Although, I would recommend you build without Crosswalk (meaning, uncheck the "optimize with Crosswalk" build settings option) if you are going to run your app on the Android emulator.

However, it's usually a lot faster to just install it directly onto a real Android device and use remote CDT over USB to debug the app. See this doc page for help setting up remote CDT on your system.

Of course, there are some system-level debugging things you can do on the Android emulator that can be difficult or impossible to do on a real device, depends on your device.
