How to record tests on robotium for Android test?

Question

I am using MonkeyTalk for Android app test. I have some basic idea about robotium. But unfortunately I don't know how to record and play back using Robotium. Is there any way? If yes how?

Now, Robotium have recording facility with eclipse. You need to install eclipse plugin for this. (http://recorder.robotium.com/updates)

I've been using Robotium but didnt find a direct way to record test execution. I use MyMobiler application to record test execution.

If you are running the test cases on a device then you can use MyMobiler application.

http://www.mymobiler.com/

What this application does is it shows you the display of device on the PC. You also have an option within MyMobiler application to record.

I have downloaded "MyMobiler_0.9.8.1.exe" and installed. I have set up Android environment within eclipse. I ran my app on Nexus S device. MyMobiler is showing the status as "USB Connected". Now, How & where can I record the tests? – Ripon Al Wasim Jul 30 '13 at 08:20
First follow the steps at http://www.mymobiler.com/android-setup-start.htm . Once you do that you'll get the android device display on the PC. On PC in MyMobiler screen, Click on Edit--> Video Record Start... – Rudolf Coutinho Jul 30 '13 at 09:03
