I have about 700 tests to execute. When I run them all, there raised a crash
"Instrumentation run failed due to 'Process crashed.'" Check device logcat for details. Test running failed: Instrumentation run failed due to 'Process crashed.'
after some time of execution, about 10 minutes and ~360-370th executed test.
Logcat doesn't contain any information about this crash
It is applicable by running from Android Studio, from cmd (on PC and Mac). Device used - Samsung S3 on Android 4.1.1

One more to add: on previous released of my code this crash is not happen, but I can't find what exactly change gave a crash.
Please help me with this issue, I'm trying to understand it over two weeks.
I don't know if the problem is still actual for you, but I have encountered such problem myself. There was a bug in certain Android versions on Samsung devices: they didn't close file descriptors properly thus creating file descriptors leak. After 1028 descriptors are created - the process crashes.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=32470
To avoid this I had to cut on the usage of HandlerThreads in my tests, and re-use them where possible. But the better solution would be to change the device, probably.
