Get Android UI/Application Exerciser Monkey running on a device #159

I figured out how to do this. It is quite simple just plug the device into the computer and run the following command in a terminal:

/path/to/adt-bundle/sdk/platform-tools/adb shell monkey -p com.HuskySoft.metrobike --pct-syskeys 0 --pct-majornav 0

NOTE: replace /path/to/adt-bundle/ with the path on your machine.

The flags '--pct-syskeys 0 --pct-majornav 0' tell the monkey not to press system keys or back/home button. Without these flags I find that the monkey exits the app quickly:

Great. Did you successfully get rid of the null pointer exception problem when you start the app?

Thanks, I also need to add how many count in order to run. So just add -v 500 You can change the number if you want
