1Unit tests for runtime resource overlay
2=======================================
3
4As of this writing, runtime resource overlay is only triggered for
5/system/framework/framework-res.apk. Because of this, installation of
6overlay packages require the Android platform be rebooted. However, the
7regular unit tests (triggered via development/testrunner/runtest.py)
8cannot handle reboots. As a workaround, this directory contains a shell
9script which will trigger the tests in a non-standard way.

11Once runtime resource overlay may be applied to applications, the tests
12in this directory should be moved to core/tests/coretests. Also, by
13applying runtime resource overlay to a dedicated test application, the
14test cases would not need to assume default values for non-overlaid
15resources.
