command line arguments to Android instrument test

Question

Does anyone has an idea about how to pass command line arguments to Android instrumentation tests run using gradle. Calling gradle connectedInstrumentTest with -p arguments or -D arguments did n't seem to work .I am trying to pass command line arguments to my instrument test using gradle.

Answer 1

It is possible since 1.3.0 version of plugin according to docs: http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/new-build-system

It's now possible to specify instrumentation test runner arguments in build.gradle (in defaultConfig or per flavor):

android {
     defaultConfig {
         testInstrumentationRunnerArguments size: "medium"
     } 
 }

This can also be done on the command line:

./gradlew cC -Pandroid.testInstrumentationRunnerArguments.size=medium

Answer 2

you mean pass arguments to the am command? It's not possible at the moment.
