culebra: new unit tests facilities added

AndroidViewClient/culebra 7.0.2 was released recently. Besides a number of bug fixes it includes some new command line options mainly to help in the creation of unit tests.

$ culebra --help

usage: culebra [OPTION]... [serialno]

Options:

  -H, --help                       prints this help                             

  -V, --verbose                    verbose comments                             

  -v, --version

  -I, --ignore-secure-device

  -F, --force-view-server-use

  -S, --do-not-start-view-server

  -k, --do-not-ignore-uiautomator-killed don't ignore UiAutomator killed              

  -w, --window=WINDOW              use WINDOW content (default: -1, all windows)

  -i, --find-views-by-id=BOOL      whether to use findViewById() in script      

  -t, --find-views-with-text=BOOL  whether to use findViewWithText() in script  

  -d, --find-views-with-content-description=BOOL whether to use findViewWithContentDescription

  -r, --use-regexps                use regexps in matches                       

  -C, --verbose-comments

  -U, --unit-test-class            generates unit test class and script         

  -M, --unit-test-method=NAME      generates unit test method. Can be used with or without -U

  -j, --use-jar=BOOL               use jar and appropriate shebang to run script (deprecated)

  -D, --use-dictionary=BOOL        use a dictionary to store the Views found    

  -K, --dictionary-keys-from=VALUE dictionary keys from: id, text, content-description

  -R, --auto-regexps=LIST          auto regexps (i.e. clock), implies -r. help list options

  -a, --start-activity=COMPONENT   starts Activity before dump                  

  -o, --output=FILENAME            output filename                              

  -A, --interactive                interactive                                  

  -p, --append-to-sys-path         append environment variables values to sys.path

  -s, --save-screenshot=FILENAME   save screenshot to file                      

  -W, --save-view-screenshots=DIR  save View screenshots to files in directory  

These new options are:

-U, --unit-test-class this tells culebra to generate a script containing a unit test. If you just save the script and run it, the test containing in it will verify that the same Views are in the screen. This test case is a kind of logical screenshot where no bitmaps are involved.

-M, --unit-test-method=NAME this option has two different uses. If it's specified when --unit-test-case was also specified then the unit test case generated will have a test method called NAME. It's advisable to name the method testSomething, where Something should describe what you are testing. On the other hand, if --unit-test-case is not specified then only the test method is generated. This option is useful if you are generating test methods that you are planning to add to an existing class.
