== Problem ==
With advent of NativeFennec, a new framework was needed to test the UI of the Mobile Browser. Robotium was identified as a useful framework to take advantage of, but is not complete. Robocop incorporates all of Activity, Instrumentation, and Robotium Classes to inject events into the new Java front-end of Fennec.
From the Fennec's objdir (using testLoad as an example):
<pre>TEST_PATH=testLoad make mochitest-robotium</pre>
== Updating your test directory ==
It is not always necessary to rebuild Fennec to use new tests. If you are updating the build with your own test, ensure that your test has been added to the manifest in /PATH/TO/FENNEC/SOURCE/mobile/android/base/tests/robocop.ini .
Otherwise, you can retrieve tests from the repository by executing:
<pre>
hg pull
hg update</pre>
Now you can build the robocop part of Fennec by executing:
<pre>
cd objdir
make -C build/mobile/robocop/
make package </pre>
