Instrumentation.ActivityMonitor

extends Object
java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.app.Instrumentation.ActivityMonitor

Class Overview

Information about a particular kind of Intent that is being monitored. An instance of this class is added to the current instrumentation through addMonitor(Instrumentation.ActivityMonitor); after being added, when a new activity is being started the monitor will be checked and, if matching, its hit count updated and (optionally) the call stopped and a canned result returned.

An ActivityMonitor can also be used to look for the creation of an activity, through the waitForActivity() method. This will return after a matching activity has been created with that activity object.
