The Google Android SDK is a toolset used by developers to write applications on Android-enabled devices.
The tools placed in Android SDK are given below:
- Android Emulator - Android Emulator is a software application that simulates Android devices on your computer so that you can test the application on a variety of devices and Android API levels without having each physical device.
- DDMS(Dalvik Debug Monitoring Services) - It is a debugging tool from the Android software development kit (SDK) which provides services like message formation, call spoofing, capturing screenshots, etc.
- ADB(Android Debug Bridge) - It is a command-line tool used to allow and control communication with the emulator instance.
- AAPT(Android Asset Packaging Tool) - It is a build tool that gives the ability to developers to view, create, and update ZIP-compatible archives (zip, jar, and apk).
