Testing Your Android Development Environment

In this training video Tim Layton walks you through testing your installed and configured Android development environment before moving onto the programming lessons.



The "Android Programming in 10 Days" series helps developers learn the skills they need to write Android applications for mobile phones, tablets and devices. Android has never been more popular and with the release of API 14 "Ice Cream Sandwich" developers can now create applications for all Android devices in a single environment.

Android 4.0 brings a unified UI framework that lets developers create elegant, innovative apps for phones, tablets, and more. It includes all of the familiar Android 3.x interface elements and APIs — fragments, content loaders, Action Bar, rich notifications, resizable home screen widgets, and more — as well as new elements and APIs.

For developers, the unified UI framework in Android 4.0 means new UI tools, consistent design practices, simplified code and resources, and streamlined development across the range of Android-powered devices.
