I am an android developer. I plan to implement my existing android application (which does voice to text) on Amazon Kindle Fire. I created a test device as per the amazon kindle help as i don't have kindle fire with me. I have a doubt that what happens if i click on microphone icon on my app with out connecting external mic (kindle does not have built-in mic as per specification). Does it lead to a crash? Do kindle handle this?

I agree with CommonsWare above that you really need to own the hardware to develop an app properly for that platform.
To assist a bit with other that are looking into this issue, it has been reported (and I have verified) that you can use cellphone headsets with the Fire and some apps to recognize the headset mic.

Are you developing natively or using a crossplatform IDE like Titanium or PhoneGap?

@ John Mark Mitchell No... I was using the Native SDK, I tried it with my 7" tab – ram_c Dec 04 '12 at 10:50
