Automated Test Devices

In addition to the standard models we’ve added support for the Automated Test Device (ATD for short) images. These are special emulator images that are slimmer compared to the standard ones. For example, any apps like Calendar, Dialer etc have been removed, the System UI is disabled completely and hardware rendering has been disabled to reduce load on host’s OpenGL emulation.

We’ve benchmarked these with our builds and found them to be much faster compared to non-ATD images. Read about our findings here.

If you want to know more about ATD images read the official Android Studio Preview release notes here.

Missing a model or API version?

Do your tests depend on a specific model / resolution / API version that isn’t yet available? We’re constantly adding new models and versions and would love to know where to direct our efforts! Let us know at support@emulator.wtf.
