It depends on what parts you want to test. If you need the android test framework classes for testing activities and services in a valid android context then i am not sure if you can make junit 4 work with it.
However, if you extract your app logic into android independant classes then you can test them by having junit 4 in the classpath before the android jar. I use this for testing with junit 4 and jmock 2 and mockito. What i had to do is provide some dummy implementation of Bundle and Intent. Otherwise you will see the Stub! Exception thrown by the android classes. (You have to write dummy implementations for all android classes that you cannot get around as dependencies. Your dummy implementations have to be placed in the classpath before the android jar, too, of course.) Easy to setup in intellij. A bit more work to get right on the command line with ant.
