Robotium的测试类ActivityInstrumentationTestCase2是继承于Junit3的TestCase类，所以并没有提供Junit4的特性.如网上总结说的

  • 不能通过annotate的方式来识别子类的新特征，如不能实现@beforeclass，@afterclass等特征。只能通过写setup和teardown，
  • TestCase只能以test开头进行测试case书写。
那么有时我们并不想每次开始/完成一个case的时候都做一些重复的动作，也就是要实现Junit4的@beforeclass和@afterclass，该怎么办呢？
以SDK自带的Notepad测试用例作为例子，假如现在我们需要实现两个测试用例
  • testAddNoteCNTittle:创建一个中文标题的笔记
  • testAddNoteEngTitle:创建一个英文标题的笔记
根据实例提供的代码，在setup里面会初始化solo而在teardown里面会关闭所有打开的activities，也就是说每执行一个case都会重新初始化一次solo和关闭所有的activities： 
	@Override 	public void setUp() throws Exception { 		//setUp() is run before a test case is started.  		//This is where the solo object is created. 		super.setUp();  		this.activity = this.getActivity();  		this.solo = new Solo(getInstrumentation(), getActivity()); 	} 	 	@Override 	public void tearDown() throws Exception { 		//tearDown() is run after a test case has finished.  		//finishOpenedActivities() will finish all the activities that have been opened during the test execution. 		solo.finishOpenedActivities(); 	}
但事实上我们在这个脚本只是去创建两个Note，并不需要每执行完一个case都要去初始化solo和关闭所有activities。google后没有发现有现成的取代@beforeclass和@aferclass的方法。
以下本人的实现方法
