Out of tests, you can create a MotionEvent and use dispatchTouchEvent if you know and you can access the Activity or View .

MotionEvent e = MotionEvent.obtain(downTime, eventTime, MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN, x, y, metaState);
dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent);

The parameters are:

downTime: the moment in ms when the "user" touched the screen starting a flow of events
eventTime: the moment in ms when the event was generated
action: in this case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN, you can replace it
x: position x where the "user" touched
and: position and where the "user" touched
metaState: modifiers to the event (such as shift, ctrl etc.)

moments are obtained based on SystemClock.uptimeMillis() .

To get examples of these events you could do an @Override in a view or activity at dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent e) (do not forget to call super(e) ).
