ADB (Android Debug Bridge) is an extremely powerful command-line tool that allows communicating with a device. It allows from the most basic things like installing an app to more sophisticated ones like clearing a specific shared preference, tapping on a specific view, and so on. By chaining them, we can create powerful scripts that can automate our most common workflows like launching an app, logging in, and so on. Remembering all the ADB commands can be particularly challenging - or at least it is for me - hence I created "Simple ADB", an open-source tool written in Python that lets us effortlessly build powerful scripts.
In this talk, I want to quickly introduce you to ADB, and then walk you through my journey and the challenges in building this project, and how to unleash its potential.
