Android application dynamic analysis lab setup on windows

To perform the android application penetration testing we need a rooted android device. But it is not always safe to root our personal devices. So, I came with a solution and you to analyze the android application without an actual device. In the below, I explain the whole process of lab setup on windows.

Requirements:

1. ADB to install read this
2. Install Genymotion download from here (If you already have VirtualBox on your PC then go to without VirtualBox option).
3. Create an account on Genymotion.

Virtual Device setup on Genymotion:

First, we have to login into the Genymotion and then we are going to creating a virtual device with android version 7.1 API level 25 configuration. Because the Inspeckage is working perfectly on this version only.

By clicking the ‘+’ icon at the top right-side we get the below window. Do select the Google Nexus 5X device under the “7.1-API 25” category and click “Next” button
