Screenshot tests

This project use Shot to do screenshot tests.

Reference screenshots are generated using emulator with Pixel4 device, API-31 and swiftshader_indirect gpu mode.

The AVD can be created with:

./avdmanager create avd --force -n test2 --abi 'default/x86_64' --package 'system-images;android-31;default;x86_64' --device 'pixel_4'

The emulator can be launched by command line:

emulator -avd test -no-snapshot-save -no-window -gpu swiftshader_indirect -noaudio -no-boot-anim -camera-back none

To use the emulator from the AVD manager, the device must be configured with: hw.gpu.mode = swiftshader_indirect in AVD config.ini
