Test DPC

Test DPC for Android Enterprise testing

Test DPC is a sample Device Policy Controller for developers and QA teams working with Android’s enterprise management APIs. It lets you create and inspect managed profiles, test device-owner scenarios, and check how an app behaves when workplace policies are applied. This is a technical utility rather than a general-purpose phone app, so it suits people building, integrating, or testing managed Android software.

What you can test

• Managed profiles: Set up a separate work profile and examine profile boundaries, data separation, and cross-profile behavior.
• Device management: Explore device-owner controls and policies without building a complete enterprise mobility management system first.
• Managed configurations: Apply application restrictions to see how software responds to enterprise-provided settings.
• Security rules: Test controls such as screen-capture restrictions and password requirements, where supported by the device and Android version.

A practical reference tool

The interface is built for checking policy states quickly rather than for presentation. Its settings-style lists expose Android Enterprise controls in a direct, fairly dense layout. That makes Test DPC useful when comparing implementation behavior with the Android SDK, reproducing management conditions, or validating an app before deployment to managed devices. New developers may need familiarity with device policy concepts to understand the effect of each setting.

Before using it

Device-owner and security policies can affect the phone beyond the test app, especially when used on a personal primary device. Use a suitable test device or controlled environment, and understand the policy you are enabling before applying it.
