Set emulator/device orientation programmatically i

问题:

In my instrumentation tests I want to test something in both landscape and portrait mode, so I'd like to set the orientation before the tests start. Is there a way to set the device or emulator orientation programmatically?

I am aware of the setRequestedOrientation() method but this works for a certain activity, if another activity is started I have to remember to call it again. What I'm looking for is a way to set the orientation "globally", so that every new activity is automatically started with that orientation.

UPDATE:

The solution must fit 2 requirements: 1) it doesn't make me change my production code, 2) it needs to run in a CI environment.

Here is a ViewAction I created for making this simpler: https://gist.github.com/nbarraille/03e8910dc1d415ed9740

The usage is described in the comments. Hope that helps.

You can do it for all of your activities by making a own AbtractActivity Class.

public abstract class AbstractActivity extends Activity {
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);
    }
}

Now you have to inherit all your activities from this class.

You can start two emulator simultaneously one in potrait mode and one in landscape mode. To change emulator orientation use ctrl + f12.
