You will need the tools listed in Qt's and Qt Creator's manual.

Test	Result	Annotation
If you installed Creator as part of a Qt SDK, does Creator correctly detect the kits installed with itself? Remove Creator's settings from .config (Linux, Mac) or %appdata% (Windows). Start Creator. In "Tools" -> "Options…" -> "Devices" -> "Android", set the correct paths to a JDK, the Android SDK and the Android NDK. Click "Apply". In "Tools" -> "Options…"-> "Kits" -> "Kits", verify that Creator shows a Kit for each Qt for Android version you installed. Verify that each of these Kits has a valid Debugger, Compiler and Qt Version.		I was testing the standalone package.
If you installed Creator from a standalone package, does it add Kits when adding qmake? Remove Creator's settings from .config (Linux, Mac) or %appdata% (Windows). Start Creator. In "Tools" -> "Options…"-> "Devices" -> "Android", set the correct paths to the Android SDK and the Android NDK. Click "Apply". In "Tools" -> "Options…"-> "Kits" -> "Compilers", verify that Creator shows valid Compilers for Android. In "Tools" -> "Options…"-> "Kits" -> "Qt Versions", set up a qmake from a Qt for Android. Click "Apply". In "Tools" -> "Options…"-> "Kits" -> "Kits", verify that Creator added an auto-detected kit named "Android for ..." Verify that this Kit has a valid Debugger and Compiler and uses the Qt Version you set before.	yes	I had a hard time to setup my box to be able to test tis bullet point. Several gotchas crossed my why. Wrong JDK version Wrong Android NDK version Superfluous installation of gradle Superfluous installation of MinGW 4.8.0 The pages http://doc-snapshots.qt.io/qtcreator-4.8/creator-developing-android.html and http://doc-snapshots.qt.io/qt5-dev/androidgs.html differ in content and should be synced. I've created a bugreport here: QTCREATORBUG-21255 Freeze for several minutes after adding the Android NDK to the device page.
Can Creator compile an application using an Android kit? (If you didn't install Creator together with a Qt version for Android, you might have to add the path to make or mingw32-make to the PATH environment variable.)	yes
Can Creator run an application on an Android device?	yes
Do the previous tasks work for Qt Widgets Applications and Qt Quick Applications?	yes
QML errors: Create a hybrid QML/C++ project (Qt Quick Application). Add errors to the qml file. Save and close the file. Run this project on the device. Do error messages appear in Application Output and are these clickable when running the app? Do they open the "right" file and location in the desktop's source directory?	No. Sometimes it even crashes.	QTCREATORBUG-21256
While an application is running on an Android device, quit the application on the device. Does Creator notice this and reflect the changed state?	Yes.	This works in 'Run' mode only. Every attempt to do this with debug crashes Creator. QTCREATORBUG-21256
While an application is running on an Android device, click the "Stop" icon in the "Application Output" view. Does Creator terminate the application on the device?	Yes.	This works in 'Run' mode only. Every attempt to do this with debug crashes Creator. QTCREATORBUG-21256
Can Creator debug an application on an Android device?	No.	One the first attempt nothing happens and on the second attempt, it crashes. https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-21256
Set a breakpoint before debugging an application on an Android device. Does the execution of the program stop at the breakpoint?		Not tested further.
Set a breakpoint while debugging an application on an Android device. Does the execution of the program stop at the breakpoint?		Not tested further.
Do the previous tasks work for breakpoints in C++ code as well as in QML code?		Not tested further.
When stopped at a breakpoint, does Creator show valid data for Locals and Expressions?		Not tested further.
When stopped at a breakpoint, does Creator show a valid stack trace?		Not tested further.
Does the Debugger Log View show qDebug output from an Android device when debugging?		Not tested further.
Try the QML Profiler in the Debug mode for an app on the device. Does it collect data and does that data look sane?		Not tested further.
Does Creator handle disconnecting properly? Disconnect the Android device while: Running an application on the device Debugging an application on the device Having stopped at a breakpoint on the device Please verify that Creator neither crashes nor freezes. It can still be used locally and after reconnecting it can use the device again.
