Setting up the Environment

Check out the project using Android Studio. This creates the local.properties file with the required line

sdk.dir=<root folder of Android Studio's Android SDK installation>

Running the Application

In Android Studio: Run > Run app

Running the Tests

Unit tests

In Android Studio:

• right-click on app/java/edu...shapes (test), then choose Run Tests in edu...

You can also use Gradle in a Terminal window:

$ gradlew testDebug   # on a Windows PC
$ ./gradlew testDebug # on a Mac or Linux PC

You can view the resulting test reports in HTML by opening this file in your browser:

app/build/reports/tests/debug/index.html

(So far, this example does not include any Android instrumentation tests.)
