Android library facilitates to do that in the following way: For Wi-Fi: WifiManager wifiman=(WifiManager)solo.getCurrentActivity().getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE); wifiman.setWifiEnabled(false); Passing false will disable Wi-Fi and true enables it. For Mobile Data: ConnectivityManager dataManager=(ConnectivityManager)solo.getCurrentActivity().getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE); Method dataMtd […]

Automation Front: Instrumentation/Robotium test fails after a number of test methods getting executed? Automation fails on its way throwing Out Of Memory exception? Yes , Symptoms indicate you to investigate […]
