I wonder why this exists.
What is this code for. How would they even know its a monkey?!
I'm sure its a joke of sorts, or clever moniker if you want to be charitable, but unclear to me in any case
- r3trohack3r 3y agoA quick Kagi search revealed that this checks if the user is a simulated user in for stress tests: https://developer.android.com/studio/test/other-testing-tools/monkey https://developer.android.com/studio/test/other-testing-tool... My guess is that the name shares its etymology with other Monkey references in tech, like Chaos Monkey. Where a being that has no understanding of the purpose of anything in the environment is given access to the environment and allowed to wreak havoc as a form of resilience testing. This monkey appears to generate system events and user input events in a pseudo-random (deterministic) way to help with fuzzy-like testing of an app.
