Procedure 4. Testing Android app

1. Execute following command and make an Emulator :

   $ /path/to/my_new_cordova_project/cordova/emulate

   on windows

   $ path\to\my_new_cordova_project\cordova\emulate.bat

   Or otherwise use :

   $ android avd

   Note

   Make sure you have created at least one Android Virtual Device. If you did not it will ask you to create one with the android command. If you have multiple AVDs, it will prompt you to select an AVD. When You are creating an Emulator, make sure the its platform version is compatible with your application.

2. After create an Emulator, then run it. To install created Android app, go to the output directory of app and then also for 'bin' directory inside it.

   $ /path/to/my_new_cordova_project/cordova launch

   Or

   Ex: If you are in xsl/mobile directory,

   $ adb install \
   path/to/proj/bin/MobileAppActivity-debug.apk

   on windows

   $ path\to\my_new_cordova_project\cordova\clean.bat

5. Clean, build, deploy and launch

   $ /path/to/my_new_cordova_project/cordova/BOOM

   on windows
