Monkey Talk

Monkey Talk Installation :

1. Download the zip file here. This download contains the IDE, the Agents (which you will need for the next step), and sample applications.

2. Unzip it wherever you want, but remember where you put it because you'll need it later.

3. On OS X, move the entire MonkeyTalkIDE folder into your applications folder and double click on MonkeyTalk.app to run.

4. On Windows, move the entire MonkeyTalkIDE folder into your Program Files folder and double click on MonkeyTalk.exe to run. (Note: If you choose to put MonkeyTalkIDE in your Program Files folder, you will have to choose a different location for your workspace.)

For Android Applications:

Open your Android Project in Eclipse and follow these instructions.

1. Convert your Android project to AspectJ

2. MonkeyTalk-agent.jar can be found in the "agents" folder in the MonkeyTalk package you downloaded earlier, and can be downloaded here. The exact name of the jar might vary depending on the version, but it should always start with "MonkeyTalk-agent".

3. Create a "libs" folder in your Android project, if you don't already have one.

4. Copy the .jar into the libs folder

5. Right click on MonkeyTalk-agent.jar > AspectJ Tools > Add to Aspectpath.

6. Update your AndroidManifest.xml to include the following two permissions:

             android.permission.INTERNET ,

                       android.permission.GET_TASKS

7. Update the project properties (right-click on the project > Properties > Java Build Path), select the Order and Export tab, and check the checkbox next to the AspectJ Runtime Library to export it:

8.Deploy your application to an Android device or emulator.

  Copy the ant jar file from monkey talk folder in to “Apache-ant/lib” folder

2. Open your application's project in Xcode.
3. Duplicate your application's build target by right-clicking on it and selecting Duplicate from the menu. A new target will be created called YourApp copy.
   Rename YourApp copy to something like YourAppMonkey
   You may also want to rename the Scheme from the Manage Schemes window

    4.Add the downloaded MonkeyTalk lib to your project File > Add to “YourApp”... from the menu.

(When the dialog box appears, navigate to the directory where you unzipped the MonkeyTalk zip file, and select the MonkeyTalk iOS lib from pathToMonkeyTalkFolder/agents/iOS. )

On the Link Binaries With Libraries tab, you will need to add libsqlite3.dylib CFNetwork.framework and QuartzCore.framework and libstdc++.6.0.9.dylib (Xcode5 only)
if your application is not already using them. (These frameworks are required by the MonkeyTalk).

   7. On the Build Settings tab, scroll down to the Linking section and add to your Other Linker Flags:

                                   -all_load -lstdc++
