这些工具将提高您的Android生产率 (These tools will boost your Android productivity)
The main purpose of this post is to list and describe tools (mainly free ones), which allow you to boost your productivity, efficiency, and increase the hype among your product owners and managers.
这篇文章的主要目的是列出和描述工具(主要是免费工具)，这些工具可让您提高生产率，效率并增加产品所有者和经理之间的炒作。
To every single tool (or groups of tools) I will add annotations like: [FREE] or [FREE/PAID] or [PAID].
我将为每个工具(或工具组)添加注释，例如： [FREE]或[FREE / PAID]或[PAID] 。
Let’s not waste time!
不要浪费时间！
1. Android Tool for Mac [FREE] — when I discovered this tool, it just made my day. It is completely free and allows you to:
1.适用于Mac的Android工具 [免费]-当我发现此工具时，它就让我感到欣慰。 它是完全免费的，并允许您：
- Record screen videos, 录制屏幕视频，
- take screenshots, 截屏，
- install (sideload) APKs, 安装(侧载)APK，
- take bug reports, 记录错误报告，
- use common scripts. 使用常见的脚本。
You can see the main menu in the picture below. You can simply take a screenshot or start recording a video, by clicking on a proper icon.
您可以在下图中看到主菜单。 您只需单击适当的图标，即可截图或开始录制视频。
The tool offers also quite powerful preferences which you can see below:
该工具还提供了非常强大的首选项，您可以在下面看到：
What is really important to me is that it can also create a gif for you, besides mp4 format.
对我来说真正重要的是，除了mp4格式，它还可以为您创建gif 。
You can set the quality of videos and gifs and also adapt Android status bar to the needs of the video or screenshot.
您可以设置视频和gif的质量，还可以使Android 状态栏适应视频或屏幕截图的需求。
One of disadvantages is that the Android tool is available only for OSX / MacOS.
缺点之一是Android工具仅可用于OSX / MacOS 。
2. Vysor [FREE/PAID] — this is a Chrome app, compatible with all operating systems¹. It gives you a possibility to operate your physical device from your desktop.
2. Vysor [免费/付费] -这是一个Chrome应用，与所有操作系统兼容。¹ 它使您可以从台式机操作物理设备。
As per above gif, you can use a mouse pointer to click and scroll in the device. Your computer keyboard would also work.
按照上面的gif，您可以使用鼠标指针单击并滚动设备。 您的计算机键盘也可以使用。
There are two versions of the app:
该应用程序有两个版本：
Free — it offers mirroring and controlling your Android device and taking screenshots.
免费 -它提供镜像和控制您的Android设备并拍摄屏幕截图。
Pro — it gives you high quality mirroring, taking screen videos, fullscreen mode, going wireless and drag & drop functionality.
专业版 -它为您提供高质量的镜像，拍摄屏幕视频，全屏模式，无线连接和拖放功能。
Honestly speaking, the combination of the Android Tool for Mac and Vysor Free covers most of the use cases. You can do a live demo, you can take screen video and share it after, or record a gif. However, for the sake of having a really good quality of streaming / mirroring, I think it is worth it to go Pro, especially since it costs just $1.99/mo.
坦白地说， 适用于Mac的Android工具和Vysor Free的结合涵盖了大多数用例 。 您可以进行现场演示，也可以拍摄屏幕视频并在之后分享，或者录制gif。 但是，为了拥有非常好的流/镜像质量，我认为值得选择Pro，特别是因为它的成本仅为$ 1.99 / mo。
To sum up, use these two apps and make your demo perfect! It will make your stakeholders happy as well!
总结起来， 使用这两个应用程序，使您的演示完美！ 这也将使您的利益相关者感到高兴！
3. Genymotion [FREE/PAID] — I think everybody knows Genymotion. If not, this is a powerful Android emulator.
3. Genymotion [免费/付费] -我认为每个人都知道Genymotion。 如果没有，这是一个功能强大的Android模拟器。
Genymotion is an AOSP, ported to VirtualBox (by integrating its drivers). It is compiled directly in x86. So it can run directly on your CPU/GPU without any abstraction or translation. It makes a huge difference in term of performance.²
Genymotion是一个AOSP，已移植到VirtualBox(通过集成其驱动程序)。 它直接在x86中编译。 因此它可以直接在您的CPU / GPU上运行，而无需任何抽象或转换。 它在性能方面有很大的差异。²
The tool offers:
该工具提供：
Compatibility with Android SDK tools, Eclipse and Android Studio (there is also a plugin which I listed in my last article about Android Studio Tips & Tricks)
与Android SDK工具，Eclipse和Android Studio的兼容性(还有一个插件，我在上一篇有关Android Studio提示和技巧的文章中列出了)

In addition, you can install Google Services applications, like Goole Play Store and enjoy the full Android experience.

Unfortunately, every rose has its thorns and Genymotion is an extra-paid solution (just think about all these features, which I listed above). The cheapest plan costs 99€/year.
不幸的是，每朵玫瑰都有刺， Genymotion是一个额外的解决方案 (只需考虑一下我上面列出的所有这些功能)。 最便宜的计划每年收费99欧元。
Update 4th Feb 2017: Genymotion is also available for free, but for personal use only. You can download it here.
2017年2月4日更新： Genymotion也免费提供 ，但仅供个人使用。 您可以在此处下载。
Another [FREE] alternative is to use built-in Android emulator. Since 2015 it works pretty well, as it uses Google Intel x86 images. I like its smoothness, intuitiveness and that it is well-integrated with Android Studio.
另一种[FREE]替代方法是使用内置的Android仿真器 。 自2015年以来，它运行良好，因为它使用了Google Intel x86图像。 我喜欢它的流畅性，直观性以及它与Android Studio的完美集成。
