ghost-pepper

Ghost Pepper is a tool to get automatically Monkey-based scenarios, ranked based code smells counting

Requirements

Ghost Pepper uses Python3.5 and Simiasque to work.
You have to install Simiasque on your phone for using Ghost-Pepper.

Ghost Pepper works on a verbose application, which can save in a log message each time a code smell is called.
Each log has to been formatted like this: "SMELL: MY.CODE.SMELL", as a debug log message.
If you don't have this verbose application, please to use Paprika, a Java application which can create a verbose APK to count each code smells called in the app.
You can request an access of Paprika sending an e-mail to Geoffrey Hecht.

How to use it?

1. Connect your phone to your computer.
2. Allow developer options in your phone.
3. Launch the program, sip a cocktail and get the list of monkey seeds that run a lot of code smells!
