So I'm currently helping to develop an app and I've been asked to test it on as many devices (virtual/non virtual) as possible and then make it adjust it to as many different screen sizes and even tablets as possible.
Now I'm not sure where exactly to start because I don't know if Android Virtual Device Manager in Eclipse has every possible screen combination.
So, would setting up and running all of the 21 virtual devices in Eclipse do the job? Or is there something else I should try doing? Any kind of information would be helpful, thank you!

An emulator in mobile testing is a virtual device that allows you to test your app by emulating a real Android device. A device emulator mimics the hardware or OS of the device.
If you just purchased a second Android device, you can have the same apps on both devices. For example, you can put the same apps on your Android tablet as you have on your Android phone.
The software cannot emulate battery issues, network connectivity and other real-time data: GPS, sensors, gestures, touch force, etc. It cannot emulate the performance of an app in terms of incoming calls, SMS, etc.
If you need to test for specific devices, Samsung has a remote test lab, this way you can test real devices virtually and a large variety of devices.
Additionally, you can use the Amazon Device Farm which has Samsung phones as well as other Android, Fire, and iOS phones.

And another testing service with real and virtual devices that you can remotely control is testobject It is just for Android apps at the moment, but still a really nice tool to test with.
