fake android account for testing

Question

I would like to have a fake android account I can use for testing adding/deleting/merging/referencing contacts. In my searches, I'm a little surprised something hasn't turned up. I am new to the android scene. How do people normally go about this?

Thank you.

Answer 1

You can use the android emulator that comes with the SDK, that is about it unless you are willing to use your own device.

I'm not sure if the android emulator allows access to contacts though.
