Android Tools and Testing Fireside Chat
summary
IntelliJ becomes the base IDE and Android Studio integrates IntelliJ 15, faster emulator CPU and multi‑core support cuts boot times, and Instant Run runs from Studio (not Gradle) and already supports multidex projects; Jack and Jill remain experimental with Kotlin integration possible via Jill, not yet default; ADB throughput gets a new protocol to fix the tiny‑chunk/ACK bottleneck; performance tools expand line‑level CPU/memory/battery monitors and CI/reporting is planned; basic screen‑reader support exists in 2.0 preview (Instant Run works with multidex, ADB protocol fix, emulator multi‑core boot, screen reader on Windows).
