This application connects to TestTrack (defect tracker) via a SOAP to REST bridge I created in order to pull the teams current Defects. TestTrack only supports SOAP and Android does not play very well with SOAP... hence the need for a converter.
Users with the highest number of defects are listed first. I used "Spring for Android" for the REST components. The view shown is using an ExpandableListAdapter. The two tabs on top were done using a TabHost.
I am using Jackson for all JSON processing. REST requests are done by using an AsyncTask in order to keep Android happy since it will crash with network latency issues that are not in the background.
Having already done many Swing applications, I am amused (and quite happy) at how similar an Android application (generally speaking) is to create as a Swing app.
