Android ABI coverage and protection tests

Signing, migrations, supply-chain integrity and store delivery.

Build and distribution1 min readEditorial methods

Native protection components may ship different binaries for each architecture. Each ABI needs security and stability acceptance.

Evaluation approach

Inventory supported architectures from the final artifact. Detect absent or mismatched libraries in the build gate.

Application example

If a protection library cannot load on one device family, check whether the app silently continues without checks.

Limits and considerations

One architecture does not represent the Android population.

Handling a missing library

Define explicitly whether unchecked continuation is allowed. A controlled error rather than an unexplained crash also helps support identify the cause.

Checks and decisions

  • Inventory ABIs
  • Test load failures
  • Verify versions
