Test your Play Age Signals API (beta) integration

To verify your app's handling of various age signals and age sharing status, use the FakeAgeSignalsManager provided in the SDK testing artifact. FakeAgeSignalsManager lets you simulate API responses for unit and integration testing by replacing your production AgeSignalsManager instance.

To simulate different response types using the Play Age Signals API SDK version 0.0.4, see the following examples:

Example 1: Request access (user shared age)

Kotlin

val fakeAccessResult = AgeSignalsAccessResult.builder()
    .setAgeSignalsStatus(AgeSignalsStatus.SHARED) // or NOT_SHARED
    .build()

val manager = FakeAgeSignalsManager()
manager.setNextAgeSignalsAccessResult(fakeAccessResult)
manager.requestAgeSignalsAccess(
    AgeSignalsAccessRequest.builder()
        .setActivity(fakeActivity)
        .build()
)
    .addOnSuccessListener { /* handle success */ }

Java

AgeSignalsAccessResult fakeAccessResult = AgeSignalsAccessResult.builder()
    .setAgeSignalsStatus(AgeSignalsStatus.SHARED) // or NOT_SHARED
    .build();

FakeAgeSignalsManager manager = new FakeAgeSignalsManager();
manager.setNextAgeSignalsAccessResult(fakeAccessResult);
manager.requestAgeSignalsAccess(
        AgeSignalsAccessRequest.builder()
            .setActivity(fakeActivity)
            .build())
    .addOnSuccessListener(/* handle success */);

Example 2: Request access (user didn't share age)

Kotlin

val fakeAccessResult = AgeSignalsAccessResult.builder()
    .setAgeSignalsStatus(AgeSignalsStatus.NOT_SHARED)
    .build()

val manager = FakeAgeSignalsManager()
manager.setNextAgeSignalsAccessResult(fakeAccessResult)
manager.requestAgeSignalsAccess(
    AgeSignalsAccessRequest.builder()
        .setActivity(fakeActivity)
        .build()
)
    .addOnSuccessListener { /* handle success */ }

Java

AgeSignalsAccessResult fakeAccessResult = AgeSignalsAccessResult.builder()
    .setAgeSignalsStatus(AgeSignalsStatus.NOT_SHARED)
    .build();

FakeAgeSignalsManager manager = new FakeAgeSignalsManager();
manager.setNextAgeSignalsAccessResult(fakeAccessResult);
manager.requestAgeSignalsAccess(
        AgeSignalsAccessRequest.builder()
            .setActivity(fakeActivity)
            .build())
    .addOnSuccessListener(/* handle success */);

Example 3: Verified adult (18+ years)

Kotlin

val fakeVerifiedUser = AgeSignalsResult.builder()
    .setAgeRangeSource(AgeRangeSource.TIER_D)
    .setAgeLower(18)
    .build()

val manager = FakeAgeSignalsManager()
manager.setNextAgeSignalsResult(fakeVerifiedUser)
manager.checkAgeSignals(AgeSignalsRequest.builder().build())
    .addOnSuccessListener { /* handle success */ }

Java

AgeSignalsResult fakeVerifiedUser = AgeSignalsResult.builder()
    .setAgeRangeSource(AgeRangeSource.TIER_D)
    .setAgeLower(18)
    .build();

FakeAgeSignalsManager manager = new FakeAgeSignalsManager();
manager.setNextAgeSignalsResult(fakeVerifiedUser);
manager.checkAgeSignals(AgeSignalsRequest.builder().build())
    .addOnSuccessListener(/* handle success */);

Example 4: Supervised minor (13-15 years old)

Kotlin

val fakeSupervisedUser = AgeSignalsResult.builder()
    .setAgeRangeSource(AgeRangeSource.TIER_B)
    .setAgeLower(13)
    .setAgeUpper(15)
    .setInstallId("fake_install_id_123")
    .build()

val manager = FakeAgeSignalsManager()
manager.setNextAgeSignalsResult(fakeSupervisedUser)
manager.checkAgeSignals(AgeSignalsRequest.builder().build())
    .addOnSuccessListener { /* handle success */ }

Java

AgeSignalsResult fakeSupervisedUser = AgeSignalsResult.builder()
    .setAgeRangeSource(AgeRangeSource.TIER_B)
    .setAgeLower(13)
    .setAgeUpper(15)
    .setInstallId("fake_install_id_123")
    .build();

FakeAgeSignalsManager manager = new FakeAgeSignalsManager();
manager.setNextAgeSignalsResult(fakeSupervisedUser);
manager.checkAgeSignals(AgeSignalsRequest.builder().build())
    .addOnSuccessListener(/* handle success */);

Example 5: Supervised minor with pending significant change

Kotlin

val fakePendingChangeUser = AgeSignalsResult.builder()
    .setAgeRangeSource(AgeRangeSource.TIER_B)
    .setAgeLower(13)
    .setAgeUpper(15)
    .setSignificantChangeStatus(SignificantChangeStatus.PENDING)
    .setInstallId("fake_install_id_123")
    .build()

val manager = FakeAgeSignalsManager()
manager.setNextAgeSignalsResult(fakePendingChangeUser)
manager.checkAgeSignals(AgeSignalsRequest.builder().build())
    .addOnSuccessListener { /* handle success */ }

Java

AgeSignalsResult fakePendingChangeUser = AgeSignalsResult.builder()
    .setAgeRangeSource(AgeRangeSource.TIER_B)
    .setAgeLower(13)
    .setAgeUpper(15)
    .setSignificantChangeStatus(SignificantChangeStatus.PENDING)
    .setInstallId("fake_install_id_123")
    .build();

FakeAgeSignalsManager manager = new FakeAgeSignalsManager();
manager.setNextAgeSignalsResult(fakePendingChangeUser);
manager.checkAgeSignals(AgeSignalsRequest.builder().build())
    .addOnSuccessListener(/* handle success */);

Example 6: Supervised minor with approved significant change

Kotlin

val fakeApprovedChangeUser = AgeSignalsResult.builder()
    .setAgeRangeSource(AgeRangeSource.TIER_B)
    .setAgeLower(13)
    .setAgeUpper(15)
    .setSignificantChangeStatus(SignificantChangeStatus.APPROVED)
    .setSignificantChangeApprovalDate(Date(1777939200000L)) // e.g., 2026-05-01
    .setInstallId("fake_install_id_123")
    .build()

val manager = FakeAgeSignalsManager()
manager.setNextAgeSignalsResult(fakeApprovedChangeUser)
manager.checkAgeSignals(AgeSignalsRequest.builder().build())
    .addOnSuccessListener { /* handle success */ }

Java

AgeSignalsResult fakeApprovedChangeUser = AgeSignalsResult.builder()
    .setAgeRangeSource(AgeRangeSource.TIER_B)
    .setAgeLower(13)
    .setAgeUpper(15)
    .setSignificantChangeStatus(SignificantChangeStatus.APPROVED)
    .setSignificantChangeApprovalDate(new Date(1777939200000L)) // e.g., 2026-05-01
    .setInstallId("fake_install_id_123")
    .build();

FakeAgeSignalsManager manager = new FakeAgeSignalsManager();
manager.setNextAgeSignalsResult(fakeApprovedChangeUser);
manager.checkAgeSignals(AgeSignalsRequest.builder().build())
    .addOnSuccessListener(/* handle success */);

Example 7: Simulating API exceptions

Kotlin

val manager = FakeAgeSignalsManager()
manager.setNextAgeSignalsException(AgeSignalsException(AgeSignalsErrorCode.NETWORK_ERROR))
manager.checkAgeSignals(AgeSignalsRequest.builder().build())
    .addOnFailureListener { /* handle error */ }

Java

FakeAgeSignalsManager manager = new FakeAgeSignalsManager();
manager.setNextAgeSignalsException(new AgeSignalsException(AgeSignalsErrorCode.NETWORK_ERROR));
manager.checkAgeSignals(AgeSignalsRequest.builder().build())
    .addOnFailureListener(/* handle error */);
