Simulation Dashboard

The exemplary game may be used in various conditions, often significantly different than your testing environment. For instance, the player can have a limited access to the Internet or switched off the location services. For this reason, you should try to test your project in many situations. Such a process can be simplified by the Simulation Dashboard tool. You can open it by choosing the Simulation Dashboard option from the Tools menu. Its window is shown in the following screenshot:

This tool makes it possible to simulate some specific network conditions, by choosing a proper network speed and signal strength. You can choose 2G, 3G, 4G, Wi-Fi, and No Network options as the speed, as well as Good, Average, and Poor as the Signal Strength. Thus, you can check how your application behaves if you need to download some data from the Internet using the slower network connection, or even whether the game responds correctly in case of no network access.

Apart from the network simulation, the Simulation Dashboard allows you to lock and unlock the screen just by choosing a suitable option from the Lock Screen group.

The last supported testing feature is named Reminders. Just after pressing the Trigger Reminder button, the reminder is shown in the emulator. Thus, you can easily check how your application reacts in such a situation.
