@ -7,13 +7,17 @@ NativeScript is a framework for building applications on mobile devices. Many
of its components are UI elements which get tested most efficiently on the
respective device or simulator/emulator. Thus, running the tests involves
the following steps:
- Create a NativeScript project
- Build it to a native image
- Start a simulator/emulator
- Deploy the application image
- Start the application
- Monitor its output
- Gather test output
- Create a NativeScript project
- Build it to a native image
- Start a simulator/emulator
- Deploy the application image
- Start the application
- Monitor its output
- Gather test output
These steps are automated via the `run-testsapp.grunt.js` grunt script, located
under the `build` directory. It gets called by the main `gruntfile.js`, but is
split to a separate file for simplicity.

the grunt way (--argName=argValue)
- `platform`: The platform to run the tests application on: iOS or Android
- `tnsPath`: [Optional] The path to the NativeScript executable. If not
found, the globally installed `tns` gets called.
- `emuPId`: The ID of the emulator process. This one is used to refresh the
emulator process, as the emulator sometimes hangs.
- `avd`: The name of the Android Virtual Device to be started to run the
tests.
- `logFilePath`: [Optional] The path to the file, which the test app run
log will get saved to. Defaults to "./TestRunResult.txt".
- `androidRuntimePath`: [Optional] The path to a custom Android Runtime
package to have the tests run onto. If not specified, the newest available
build on [npmjs.com](http://npmjs.com).
- `showEmu`: [Optional] Specifies whether the emulator should get launched
in a window or headless mode. Defaults to `false`.
# Sample run:
```
grunt testsapp --platform=Android [--tnsPath="tns"] --emuPId=".*emulator64-x86"
