Deploy to Device - ZSShen/ProbeDroid GitHub Wiki

Migration Script

Let's turn on the target device for experiment. After boot up, we need to migrate the ProbeDroid engine and the instrumentation tool to the device.

  • Recall that the launcher is installed at:

    • PROJECT_ROOT/launcher/libs/x86/launcher
    • PROJECT_ROOT/launcher/libs/armeabi-v7a/launcher

  • And the core library is installed at:

    • PROJECT_ROOT/engine/libs/x86/libProbeDroid.so
    • PROJECT_ROOT/engine/libs/armeabi-v7a/libProbeDroid.so

  • Additionally, we need to create a directory PROJECT_ROOT/tools and copy the tools we plan to deploy to here.

    • PROJECT_ROOT/tools/StringInspector.apk
    • PROJECT_ROOT/tools/ComponentInspector.apk
    • and etc ...

This python script can help us complete the migration process

$ python auto.py --deploy --arch=ARCH --path=PATH_IN_DEVICE

  --arch  ARCH  (The target device architecture. Please specify arm or x86.)
  --path  PATH_IN_DEVICE  (The working directory to store our binary. /data/local/tmp for example.)

  python auto.py --deploy --arch=arm --path=/data/local/tmp
