I'm looking a way to get current device's serial number in my integration tests.

Now, when calling

TelephonyManager manager = (TelephonyManager) getActivity().getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
String deviceId = manager.getDeviceId();

in my test method, I get java.lang.SecurityException: Requires READ_PHONE_STATE: Neither user 10227 nor current process has android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE.

I added <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE"/> in my test project AndroidManifest.xml, but that did not helped.

You should check whether Read_Phone_State permission is added in your application's AndroidManifest.xml or not.

like This::

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE"/>

If it is not there please add it, because your testcase can not have more privilege than your application.

    Then it is not possible to access current device's serial number in testcase. Because, your **testcase can not have more privilege than your application**. – kamal_prd Aug 13 '13 at 11:37
  • After adding above line, still i am getting an issue how to resolve it – karthik pamidimarri Feb 11 '15 at 17:45
  • @karthikpamidimarri have you checked if the permission is present in both the Manifest files (main application as well as test application) – kamal_prd Feb 13 '15 at 05:59
  • I also faced same issue with permission. Finally, For development I hard coded the String deviceId. But for Production I used getDeviceId(); It is working in simulator. – Thirumalvalavan Oct 21 '15 at 12:29
