Bring your own phones to Gradle Managed Devices

• 
  YurySenior Android Engineer

Gradle Managed Devices was introduced quite a while ago, but have you ever thought about using it not only for local emulators and Firebase Test Lab devices? Google actually provides an extensible API, so we can declare our own logic for device management. In this talk I will guide you through: - what Gradle Managed Devices are - how to run instrumented tests without Gradle and how they work under the hood - building your own Managed Devices step by step in an interactive way - how we can benefit from a company device farm This talk is not a direct call to action or a ready-to-use solution. It’s a fun exploration of what we can technically achieve with these obscure, hidden Android Gradle Plugin APIs.

Intended audience

People who - have heard about Gradle Managed Devices but never touched them - want to know more about instrumented tests - are interested in developing custom Gradle plugins - use or maintain a company device farm
