dryrun

Try any android library hosted online directly from the command line

A dry run is a testing process where the effects of a possible failure are intentionally mitigated. For example, an aerospace company may conduct a "dry run" test of a jet's new pilot ejection seat while the jet is parked on the ground, rather than while it is in flight.

Goodies

Private repos can be tested too :smiley:

$ dryrun [email protected]:cesarferreira/android-helloworld.git

No need to cleanup after you test the library.
No need to wait for Android Studio to load.

Alternative scenario (if you don't use `dryrun`)

Find the github's repository url
Click the download zip
Extract the zip file
Open Android Studio
Import the project you just downloaded
Sync gradle
Run the project
Choose the device you want to run
Test all you want
Delete the project folder and the zip file when you don't want it anymore
