How to calculate power consumption of android app?

android, performance

Solution

Using adb tools you can view power consumption of each running app

adb shell dumpsys cpuinfo

sample output

Load: 1.12 / 1.07 / 1.01
CPU usage from 11344ms to 1613ms ago:
  10% 122/system_server: 5.8% user + 4.5% kernel / faults: 989 minor
  0% 233/com.htc.android.wallpaper: 0% user + 0% kernel / faults: 910 minor
  0.8% 271/com.htc.launcher: 0.8% user + 0% kernel / faults: 832 minor
  0% 40/panel_on/0: 0% user + 0% kernel
  0% 8/suspend: 0% user + 0% kernel
  0% 54/synaptics_wq: 0% user + 0% kernel
  0.2% 57/w1_bus_master1: 0% user + 0.2% kernel
  0% 253/com.android.phone: 0% user + 0% kernel / faults: 3 minor
  0% 13/kondemand/0: 0% user + 0% kernel
  0% 56/curcial_wq: 0% user + 0% kernel
  0% 2879/com.htc.bg: 0% user + 0% kernel / faults: 8 minor
  0% 2904/dhd_dpc: 0% user + 0% kernel
  0% 2906/com.google.android.apps.maps:NetworkLocationService: 0% user + 0% kern

Using batterystats you can view each app's battery usage and power consumption:

adb shell dumpsys batterystats

To list all available dumpsys tools:

adb shell dumpsys -l

To configure adb tools: http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html

Problem

Whether there is any formula ,Api or method for it? I want to test the power consumption of different apps.
