Summary

Thus, in this second chapter, we learned or revised concepts related to Android SDK and tools. We reviewed how to create AVDs in the GUI and in the command line. We saw how to start/stop an emulator from Maven, and how to clean, build, deploy, and undeploy an APK onto an emulator. Finally, we described best practices in the architecture of Android projects managed by Maven.

In the next chapter, we will begin exploring unit testing.
