Android ViewServer and ADB client

AndroidViewClient

AndroidViewClient was originally conceived as an extension to monkeyrunner but lately evolved as a pure python tool that automates or simplifies test script creation. It is a test framework for Android applications that:

• Automates driving Android applications
• Generates re-usable scripts
• Provides view-based device independent UI interaction
• Uses 'logical' screen comparison (UI Automator Hierarchy based) over image comparison (Avoiding extraneous detail issues, such as time or data changes)
• Supports running concurrently on multiple devices
• Provides simple control for high level operations like language change and activity start
• Supports all Android APIs
• Is written in python (python 3.6+ support in 20.x.y+)

🛎	A new Kotlin backend is under development to provide more functionality and improve performance. Take a look at CulebraTester2 and 20.x.y-series prerelease.

NOTE: Pypi statistics are broken see here. The new statistics can be obtained from BigQuery.
