How to script user input using Firebase Game Loop testing on Android?-CodePudding

I'm interested in scripting some user actions for regression testing my app as I publish updates. I have read

I thought I would be able to run the app on a device and record user actions as a scripting mechanism. Is that not how this works?

CodePudding user response：

Game loops don't help you script your app, they help you run your already scripted app. There's no API within game loops for automating actions; that Java snippet would help a running game loop determine what "scenario" (integer ID) the app was launched as.

If your app is a native Android application (i.e. you're not using the NDK or a game engine), you could consider recording your user actions as part of a Roboscript. Firebase Test Lab supports running Robo tests, which could reliably replay those actions using that Roboscript as input.
