The Android Developer Test is a simple test we give our prospective Android developers to see how they do given a coding task.
The premise is simple, create a simple app that performs a search on Rotten Tomatoes using the Search API for movies containing the word: “Android�.
The output should be a ListView that displays each matching movies details (title, year, runtime) on a page.
- You may use any method/external libraries you wish to connect to the REST service.
- The list of results needs to be clean and easy to read.
- Clone this repository to your Github account (don't fork it please)
- Create your android app source files, commit it and then push it to Github (please include a generated APK)
- Email us a link to your completed code
- You're done!
I created a simple activity with a field for the search and icon button to start the search. It wasn't specified in the overview that is why I initialized the search with the word Android. The search with the word Android returns 11 items. I used the default parameters for the Page and Page Limit, so if you do a search that returns more than 30 items the App test will only shows the first 30 items.
