android-hardware-testing

android-hardware-testing is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from prasad-vennam/Awesome-Android-AI-Agent-Skills. It costs 16 tokens per session (349 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Guidance for Android tests that interact with the operating system as well as the app. It covers UIAutomator for system screens and fake hardware providers for sensors such as GPS, Bluetooth, and NFC.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to test permission pop-ups, system notifications, the Home or Back buttons, and flows involving more than one app. It also helps replace real sensor readings with predictable test values.
Why use it?
Regular app tests cannot reliably press system permission dialogs, open notification areas, or use hardware on a continuous-integration server. These patterns make such tests controllable and reduce failures caused by unavailable or changing hardware.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

android-hardware-testing scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Android UIAutomator & System Testing 🤖

Testing that extends beyond a single application boundary into the OS itself.

⚡ When to Use

  • When writing tests spanning multiple apps, interacting with system notifications, or performing Home button interactions.

🏗️ Core Rules / Pillars

1. UIAutomator Fundamentals

  • Pattern: Espresso / Compose Rule testing CANNOT interact with System Dialogs (like Permission Popups). You MUST use UIAutomator to click system buttons.
  • Implementation: Use UiDevice.getInstance(InstrumentationRegistry.getInstrumentation()) to find notification shades, click permission "Allow" buttons, and press the physical hardware back button.

2. Mocking Hardware Sensors

  • Pattern: End-to-end tests relying on BLE, GPS, or NFC will randomly flake on CI servers.
  • Implementation: Introduce a Fake/Mock layer behind an interface (e.g., LocationProvider) to stub out sensor values during test variants instead of simulating complex location spoofing over ADB.

🚧 Critical Anti-Hallucination Guards

  • Trap: Never use Thread.sleep() to wait for a system animation. Always use UiDevice.wait(Until.hasObject(By.text("Welcome")), 5000) to ensure tests don't flake on slow emulators.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
