Title: Android Testing Strategy

Description: Testing an Android application was always hard. In the past couple of years we got access to better tools, but we still rely a lot on architecture and design decisions in order to properly test an Android application. This talk will discuss the layers of automated testing an Android application should have, from End-to-end, Component, Integration to Unit tests. Also we will discuss BDD, TDD and Clean Architecture as tools to implement those layers.
