1 Unit tests for runtime resource overlay
2 =======================================
3
4 As of this writing, runtime resource overlay is only triggered for
5 /system/framework/framework-res.apk. Because of this, installation of
6 overlay packages require the Android platform be rebooted. However, the
7 regular unit tests (triggered via development/testrunner/runtest.py)
8 cannot handle reboots. As a workaround, this directory contains a shell
9 script which will trigger the tests in a non-standard way.

11 Once runtime resource overlay may be applied to applications, the tests
12 in this directory should be moved to core/tests/coretests. Also, by
13 applying runtime resource overlay to a dedicated test application, the
14 test cases would not need to assume default values for non-overlaid
15 resources.
