How To Test BOOT_COMPLETED Broadcast Receiver

Question

I want to check the BROADCAST RECEIVER with Action BOOT_COMPLETED in the emulator.

This my code

public class AutoRunService extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
    if (intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED)) {
        Toast.makeText(UApplication.getInstance(), "Application is ready to open ", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

        myFunciton(context);

    }
}

public void myFunciton(Context context) {

}

}

<receiver
        android:name=".AutoRunService"
        android:enabled="true"
        android:exported="true">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
        </intent-filter>
    </receiver>

I'm using windows 10 and genymotion emulator. Is there any way to check that broadcast receiver in emulator ? How can i restart emulator to check that receiver ? is there any direct command?

Thanks in advance.

Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted. (10048) could not read ok from ADB Server * failed to start daemon * error: cannot connect to daemon – BekaKK Mar 22 '17 at 11:17
try with normal emulator – amodkanthe Mar 22 '17 at 11:32
What do you mean? @apk – BekaKK Mar 22 '17 at 11:36
use avd emulator n check else try on device – amodkanthe Mar 22 '17 at 11:37

Just put a debug log inside your onRecieve() callback as follows :

        public class AutoRunService extends BroadcastReceiver {
        @Override
        public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
            if (intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED)) {
             Log.d("Boot", "completed"); // log to make sure that boot completed action is received
            }
        }

And to restart the emulator, refer the following answer :
