Travis CI Android Tests: no connected devices

I think your problem is the sys-img-armeabi-v7a-android-22 image is not available yet on Travis CI.

Indeed if you run the following command on Travis CI: android list target, the output for android-22 shows no Tag/ABIs : no ABIs.

I would suggest you try running your tests on the sys-img-armeabi-v7a-android-21 in the meantime.

You can have a look at a sample Android project with unit tests I forked and ran successfully with your components but with sys-img-armeabi-v7a-android-21 image on Travis CI:

• Sample project
• Travis CI build log

Hope this helps!

Edit: android-22 image should be available shortly on Travis CI. See the following pull request.

Unfortunately i am not allowed to comment, as i just want to complete DominicJodoin's answer. Correct indentation and a longer ADB_INSTALL_TIMEOUT is necessary as DominicJodoin already stated.

In my opinion your Emulator is running but not ready to install an apk. With - adb wait-for-device you wait until the device connected. According to the Documentation this means:

Note that this command does not cause adb to wait until the entire system is fully booted. For that reason, you should not prepend it to other commands that require a fully booted system.

Try replacing this line with - android-wait-for-emulator in your travis.yml instead.

I wanted to use a more recent emulator. Unfortunately I wasn't able to make it work on android-26 or 27, but I was able to make it work on android-25. The ABI names were changed. Here's what works for me:
