The App

The purpose of this app is to showcase how to load data from an CSV file. As you can see, I also added the following functionality:

• If you start the app you first see a splashscreen, this will disappear if the data is loaded from the CSV file. (AsyncTask)
• The MainActivity screen loads the data from the CSV file into the Listview and plot the data in several CardViews.
• I added an About page with some background info about this app. Click on the menu button in the right upper corner and tap on about to access this page
• On this page there are two buttons, one will navigate outside the app to the github project of this app and the other one to my personal website.
• If you tap on one of the three cards you see a dialog with two buttons (Cancel and New Issue)
• If you click on the new issue button, you will navigate to the screen with Create New issue. In here you can add a new issue.
• We validate if there is any text typed, if not you get a notification (snackbar) with the question if you have any issues. If you click on the snackbar actionbutton yes, it will autofill the EditText.
• If you click on the button Submit button you navigate back to the MainActivity screen, you will see that the counter of issues will raise with +1 (e.g. 5 issues -> 6 issues)

But wait there is more...

I also took the liberty to add an example of an unittest, you can find it in the test director. Besides this unittest I also implemented an End-2-End testcase with the help of the frameworks Cucumber-jvm, Espresso and the Spoon library (gradle-plugin version)

• Cucumber-jvm is used to translate a feature file, which is written in Gherkin language, to the desired method to kick off a certain action (e.g. tap on a button)
• Espresso is the UI test automation framework of Google. I used this framework to "steer" the application
• Spoon is an opensource library which create awesome test reports which you can store in your jenkins jobs. It contains also screenshots and it can create a gif of the whole test.
• It has two nice reporting modes:
  1. Normal report
  2. TV Dashboard report

If you have any questions, please contact me through github :)
