Breaking changes in Monkey configuration

Monkey task configuration is adjusted to make more sense. The following adjustments are needed if custom monkey configs are used.

This sample configuration

android {
    ...
    command {
        events 1000
        categories = ['android.intent.category.ONLY_ME']
    }
}

needs to be changed. There are 2 possible options:

• Wrap the parameters with a monkey closure. (Notice also that = after categories is not necessary anymore. Moreover, you now provide multiple categories as a comma separated list.)

android {
    ...
    command {
        monkey {
            events 1000
            categories 'android.intent.category.ONLY_ME'
        }
    }
}

• If you have a simple configuration, you can also prepend the fields with monkey.

android {
    ...
    command {
        monkey.events 1000
    }
}
