How to install an apk on the emulator in Android Studio?

Question

How do you install an apk on the emulator in Android Studio from the terminal?

In Eclipse we did

/home/pcname/android-sdks/platform-tools/adb -s em         


        

Answer 1

Much easier is just to start your emulator, then go to sdk/platform-tools and use adb from there to install apk. Like:

adb install xxx.apk

It will install it on running emulator.
