Instead of chaining a bunch of Unix commands to pry out the IP address of a random adapter, that may not be available on every distro, use the standard
adb reverse
command to forward a specific port from the Android phone (or emulator) to the host, where the test-webserver is running. This makes the test-script host-independent (should in theory run even on Windows now) and does not require the device at test (which could be a regular Android phone if not having an emulator running) to be connected to / reachable over the same network.
