MS Test Suite

Front end for the various MS test apps.

How to integrate a test app

There are four intent actions (in the category android.intent.category.DEFAULT) that should be caught by the test app's intent-filters:

• edu.umd.cmsc436.{...}.action.TRIAL
• edu.umd.cmsc436.{...}.action.PRACTICE
• edu.umd.cmsc436.{...}.action.HELP
• edu.umd.cmsc436.{...}.action.HISTORY

The possible values in the curly braces are:

• tap.hand
• tap.foot
• spiral
• balance
• level
• pop
• flex
• walk.outdoors
• walk.indoors
• symbol

For example, the intent to launch the Practice Mode of the Hand Tap app would have the action edu.umd.cmsc436.tap.hand.action.PRACTICE.

.PRACTICE and .HELP don't have any arguments or expect any results. Practice mode itself is relatively unstructured, and should let the patient practice as long as they want before exiting. Help mode should display instructions or a guide to using the specific test, and then switch to Practice mode.

.HISTORY has 1 argument:

• Patient ID, which is a string of the current patient's id

.TRIAL has 5 arguments:

• Appendage, which is a Sheets.TestType (from the sheets436 library)
• Trial Num, an integer, the current trial out of this appendage's number of trials, for display purposes
• Trial Out Of, an integer, the current appendage's number of trials, for display purposes
• Patient ID, a string, for storing raw data appropriately
• Difficulty, an integer greater than 0, the lower the easier

There are a few static methods to help with argument extraction as well:

• getAppendage(Intent)
• getTrialNum(Intent)
• getTrialOutOf(Intent)
• getPatientId(Intent)
• getDifficulty(Intent)

These will help with getting info out of intents delivered with the .TRIAL action.

.TRIAL also expects a single float result, the score for the trial. This can be done with the Activity#setResult(int, Intent) method, and the intent from the TrialMode.getResultIntent(float) helper static method. The int argument should be Activity.RESULT_OK if everything's okay, or Activity.RESULT_CANCELLED if the patient has exited early or there is some other error.

The helper library uses types from the sheets436 library, so make sure to include that as a dependency. There are also a few color resources defined to help with consistency:

• colorPrimary436, orange
• colorPrimaryDark436, a slightly darker orange (for the status bar, if present)
• colorAccent436, blue
• colorAccentLight436, a light blue
• colorBackground436, a light gray

These values were taken from colorcombos.com.

Please place APKs of your test apps in this folder with the filename of <test type>-<version>.apk, where <test type> is one of the same values as the possible actions ("tap", "spiral", "walk.indoors", etc.) and version is a whole number or a number with a single decimal point, that increases with new versions.
