Uninstall application when testing

I'm new to testing in Android with Robotium. How can I programatically uninstall and then install the application before running some of the tests?

For example, in order for me to test the login activity, I need to make sure the login credentials are not saved from a prior run of the app. Or is there another way to do this?

Solution

  • You could use the following piece of code (on the machine you're debugging from) to uninstall your application:

    Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process pr = rt.exec("adb uninstall your.package");
pr.waitFor();
