How to test "Simple Send SMS " app?

Hello,

This question might have been asked zillion times. And I have surfed quite a lot to find the answer. But here I am asking the same thing if someone has the answer :

How can I test "Sending an SMS application" using the emulator?

There's smsManager which provides the API to send SMS. But testing that if my SMS was sent successfully is difficult. Any idea how I can test my small application?

Please help!!!!!!!!!!

Regards!

Hello anditch,

unfortunately I currently have no time to try it on myself, but you can add Intents you want to receive on impotant points in the lifetime of the sms, like when sending failed or succeded. I don't know if this is already fully implemented by Google.

Syntax: [ Download ] [ Hide ]

Using java Syntax Highlighting

void sendTextMessage(String destination, String source, String text, Intent sentIntent, Intent deliveryIntent, Intent failedIntent)
 
        - Send a text based SMS.
Parsed in 0.029 seconds,  using GeSHi 1.0.8.4

That was a quick reply!! Thanks a lot!!

I would try using the intents and see if that helps.

Thanks and Regards,

Just to indicate that the destination address (first argument of the "sendTextMessage()" method) should contain a valid phone number otherwise you will get an "StringIndexOutOfBoundsException" exception.

Moreover, you need to leave the source address argument (the second argument) null; otherwise, you will get the same exception.

Hope this help those, that have been blocked just by me.

Cheers,
