+== Introduction ==
-With advent of NativeFennec, a new framework was needed to test the UI of the Mobile Browser. [http://robotium.org/ 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.
+Robocop provides UI-level testing for Firefox for Android. It is based on Google's [http://robotium.org/ Robotium] test automation framework for Android.
+Robocop uses Robotium to inject events into the Java front-end of Firefox for Android and to monitor and verify Firefox events and UI views.
