Check if Google Analytics Tracking is working

Question

I integrated the Google Analytics Tracker.

I used the following code to send a track for the welcome screen:

   Tracker tracker = ((AnalyticsSampleApp) this.getApplication()).getTracker(
            AnalyticsSampleApp.TrackerName.APP_TRACKER);

    // Enable Advertising Features.
    tracker.enableAdvertisingIdCollection(true);

    // Set screen name.
    tracker.setScreenName("Welcome Page.");

    // Send a screen view.
    tracker.send(new HitBuilders.AppViewBuilder().build());

How can I know if tracking is working.

Note: I don't have an access to the google analytics account.

Should it send messages to log cat? can see any related messages!

This is an old question, but right now getLogger() method is deprecated. Another way to check if analytics is working could be achieved using adb command.

To enable debug logging on a device run:

adb shell setprop log.tag.GAv4 DEBUG
adb logcat -s GAv4
