I have just installed Apportable and tried it out. I am trying to read the documentation but can't find any explanation how to start up generated code in Android SDK simulator? ...or is a device required for initial tests?

Could someone point me at the right direction please?

I haven't used apportable (looks like a new project for the weekend), but according to their docs (http://docs.apportable.com/cli.html#common-build-commands), if you run apportable build it will generate an APK file---the packaged application that gets installed on the device or emulator.

You can install the APK on the emulator using adb, a command line tool that is part of the Android SDK. So, first, install the Android SDK if you haven't already. Then, assuming your APK file is named sample.apk, run adb install sample.apk, and the app will be installed in your emulator.
