Hi Fabrice,

Thanks for your email. You're right that currently there are no tests
for DeviceOrientation.

It's tricky to reliably test a sensor-based API like this using
automated tests because you can't make guarantees about the accuracy
of a given implementation. Our current approach is to provide a simple
test application which would be used to test the API manually [1].

I'd certainly be interested to see the tests that you would propose
for DeviceOrientation. Did you have a strategy in mind at this point?

Thanks,
Steve
