Question

I am trying to test my activity using either ActivityUnitTestCase or ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2. In the activity I want to test my

public void onCreateContextMenu(ContextMenu menu, View v, ContextMenuInfo menuInfo) {
        menu.setHeaderTitle(R.string.lcMenuHeader);

        menu.add(Menu.NONE, EDIT_MENU_POS, EDIT_MENU_POS, R.string.lcEditAccount);
        menu.add(Menu.NONE, COPY_MENU_POS, COPY_MENU_POS, R.string.lcCopyAccount);
        menu.add(Menu.NONE, DELETE_MENU_POS, DELETE_MENU_POS, R.string.lcDeleteAccount);
}

How can I test that the menu is in the right state – ie. 3 items and a given header? I can trigger it being created in my ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2 test using

textView.performLongClick();

But I don’t know how to get it back.

Thanks
Stephen

Answer 1

In the end, I used reflection with the ActivityUnitTestCase test case:

AccountEntryContextMenuMock mock = new AccountEntryContextMenuMock();
ContextMenu menu = (ContextMenu)Proxy.newProxyInstance(mLogInActivity.
    getClassLoader(), new Class<?>[] { ContextMenu.class }, mock);

mLogInActivity.onCreateContextMenu(menu, accList, null);
//Now query the mock that the right things happened

With the mock menu looking like:

public class AccountEntryContextMenuMock implements InvocationHandler {

    @Override
    public Object invoke(Object proxy, Method method, Object[] args)
            throws Throwable {

        if (method.getName().equals("setHeaderTitle")) {
             //record it and make available for test
        }
        else if (method.getName().equals("add")) {
             //record it and make available for test
        }

        return null;
    }
}
