How to work with android emulator via API?

Question

Java

Gentlemen, are there any options for programmatic interaction with android emulators? For example, you need to open some applications, surf in the browser, and so on. Maybe there are some emulators with open api or libs.

Answer 1

adb.

Answer 2

There, as a rule, root-rights, so everything that cannot be done through ADB can be done by writing your own server application for Android, and the client "outside" the emulator will connect to it locally (debuggers like gdbserver work this way), and if required, you can change something in Android itself, this will not cause a number of problems, as on devices with an OS assembly from the manufacturer.
