can we switch on/off the wi-fi of the device in a test cases in robotium? because i am testing an issue which needs wifi to be on in initial phase then turning off the wi-fi and continue with testing.
Yes you can do it, see the example:
public void testNoNetworkConnection() throws Exception {
setWifiEnabled(false); // do stuff solo.something setWifiEnabled(true); } private void setWifiEnabled(boolean state) { WifiManager wifiManager = (WifiManager)solo.getCurrentActivity().getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE); wifiManager.setWifiEnabled(state); }
Remember to add permission in your Manifest file:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE" />
EDIT: With the new Robotium 5.3.1 you can use setWiFiData(Boolean turnedOn) to turn wifi on or off (See documentation)
Enjoy
