Step-by-step – Test your application

By default, the Nokia IDE for Java ME is set to automatically build your projects when needed, so you can proceed to running the app in the emulator.

Step 1 — Run your app in the emulator

To run the MIDlet in the emulator, on the Run menu click Run (or press CTRL-F11). The emulator opens and the application starts, as shown below.

Step 2 — Test your app

You can now test the app to confirm it behaves as you expected.

Once testing has finished, the app can be closed.

Now you can deploy the app to see it running on your Asha phone ›
