If you only wish to run pre-existing emulator instances (aka Android Virtual Devices, or AVDs), there are no further requirements - only these two components are required. If you install the Android SDK yourself, you must install at least two further components, via the Android SDK and AVD Manager: View manual SDK installation requirements. You can, however, disable automated installation via the 'Automatically install Android components when required' option on the main Jenkins configuration page. This means that no manual effort is required to start running Android emulators with Jenkins. The plugin will automatically download and install the Android SDK, if it's not already installed when a build starts. Jenkins version 2.32 or newer is required.

The build outcome can be automatically marked as unstable or failed in case a monkey-induced crash is detected.

This plugin lets you automate a number of Android-related tasks during a build: See also: Google Play Android Publisher Plugin.
