Create a memory-backed disk in OSX. Useful for sending git filter-branch to it to speed things up.

# to mount
hdiutil attach -nomount ram://$(( 128 * 1024 * 2 )) # returns device with 128 MB (in 512k blocks)
diskutil erasevolume JHFS+ "tmp" /dev/disk1 # whatever the hdiutil command returns

# when done
diskutil unmount /dev/disk1
hdiutil detach /dev/disk1

Ruby on Windows Setup

Here are a few things you'll need to get ruby setup on your Windows machine.

Ruby Setup

Ruby 1.9.3 will work. Use the defaults, but choose to add all of the ruby executables to your path.

DevKit

DevKit is needed for ruby to be able to install native gems (compiled C++ code) to your system. Extract this into something like c:\DevKit and then run the following commands.

Update

The brazenhead project had the android.support.v4.jar within its libs folder, even though it was not using it. This conflicted with the android.suppor.v4 that the app it was instrumenting was using. Removing this file fixed my issue.

Problem

The way brazenhead is able to instrument any apk for testing models this Robotium Wiki Page. Basically, you need these things to blackbox text any apk:

• Test apk is signed with the same keystore as the apk you are testing
• The targetPackage property is the same as the package of the apk that you are testing

That's pretty much it. Then, to launch any activity, you basically do what that article describes:

RSpec::Matchers.define :go_away do
  match do |screen|
    begin
      RAutomation::WaitHelper.wait_until { !screen.present? }
    rescue
      raise "Expected #{screen.class} to go away but it is still present"
    end
  end
end
