Open source android_device rule. This rule has an implicit dependency on unified_launcher, which is hosted in an external repository at https://github.com/google/android-testing-support-library and must be set up in the WORKSPACE file with repository name @android_test_support. A future change will introduce an Android tools set-up macro that will create workspace rules for all of the remote Android tools, including unified_launcher. Note that unified_launcher is not supported on Mac or Windows, so Bazel will only be able to successfully build the android_device rule on Linux. Instructions to set up unified_launcher for use with android_device: 1. Install xvfb 2. In your WORKSPACE add ``` android_sdk_repository(name = "androidsdk") # Also set $ANDROID_HOME git_repository( name = "android_test_support", remote = "https://github.com/google/android-testing-support-library", commit = "79725fed7a6884074fb3647a683869e7141ecf64", ) load( "@android_test_support//tools/android/emulator:unified_launcher.bzl", load_unified_launcher_deps = "load_workspace") load_unified_launcher_deps() ``` In your BUILD file, you can create an android_device rule for a system image that you have installed in your Android SDK as: ``` android_device( name = "my_device", cache = 256, default_properties = "@bazel_tools//tools/android/emulator:no_se_linux.properties", horizontal_resolution = 640, vertical_resolution = 800, screen_density = 133, ram = 2048, vm_heap = 256, system_image = "@androidsdk//:android-23_default_x86_files", ) ``` RELNOTES: Introduces experimental android_device rule for configuring and launching Android emulators.

{Fast, Correct} - Choose two
Bazel is a build tool that builds code quickly and reliably. It is used to build the majority of Google‘s software, and thus it has been designed to handle build problems present in Google’s development environment, including:
A massive, shared code repository, in which all software is built from source. Bazel has been built for speed, using both caching and parallelism to achieve this. Bazel is critical to Google's ability to continue to scale its software development practices as the company grows.
An emphasis on automated testing and releases. Bazel has been built for correctness and reproducibility, meaning that a build performed on a continuous build machine or in a release pipeline will generate bitwise-identical outputs to those generated on a developer's machine.
Language and platform diversity. Bazel's architecture is general enough to support many different programming languages within Google, and can be used to build both client and server software targeting multiple architectures from the same underlying codebase.
