monkeyrunner - get currently active application?

Question

I'm using the android monkeyrunner to automatically run my application.

monkeyDevice.executeShellCommand("am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n " 
            + name + " -e test_id " + test_id, new NullOutputReceiver());

Is it possible to get the name of the active application that is on the emulator screen using monkeyrunner?

Answer 1

You can get the current focused window using:

hv = monkeyDevice.getHierarchyViewer()
windowName = hv.getFocusedWindowName()
