Answer 1

This can be caused by several issues:

• Port forwarding between your host maschine and emulator is not configured ( read more on that). Run following command in order to fix that:

  adb forward tcp:[PORT_NUMBER_IN_USE] tcp:[PORT_NUMBER_IN_USE]

• The path to Android SDK in MonkeyTalk preferences is not set up correctly. You have to first install Android SDK and then specify path to it in MonkeyTalk. You should probably also check “Include Android Testing?” checkbox.

This tutorial for setting up Android agent in MonkeyTalk can also be useful to you.

Answer 2

while creating the MonkeyTalk project, it ask you for the instrumented APK. If it is accepting the APK means it is perfectly instrumented. Once it is done, make sure your phone connected to the system, better do

adb devices

If it is perfectly connected, your device should be visible in connect tab of MonekyTalk, select it, then open your Instrumented App on the phone, then the record button automatically appear in the MonkeyTalk. My suggestion is instead of using Emulator better to use Android device.
