Android - How to tap ListView item programmatically

mList.performItemClick(
    mList.getAdapter().getView(mActivePosition, null, null),
    mActivePosition,
    mList.getAdapter().getItemId(mActivePosition));

Where mActivePosition is your click position!

If you need it for testing purposes, then you can use Robotium ( http://code.google.com/p/robotium/ ).

You could also achieve what you want by calling the onClick method of the ClickController with the correct parameters.
