## Improve unit tests
Unit tests are important, especially for a security-related application like OpenKeychain. We have a reasonable amount of unit tests which covers critical parts of our crypto code for a total of 25% coverage. Testing on Android has come a long way since last year though, so this task is about exploring those new possibilities and seriously improving that coverage, including UI and API test cases.

## Key Deletion UX/Revocation
**Brief explanation:** When deleting a key the user should be asked to revoke the key if it is a secret one instead of just deleting it. Deleting a secret key should be considered an expert option, the average user should not do. Furthermore, revocation certificates should be supported in general. As part of the key generation process and for revoking a key at a later point in time.
**Brief explanation:** When deleting a key the user should be asked to revoke the key if it is a secret one instead of just deleting it. Deleting a secret key should be considered an expert option the average user should not do. Furthermore, generation of revocation certificates should be supported both as part of the key generation process and for manually revoking a key at a later point in time.
**Expected results:** Better UX when deleting keys/Support for revocation certificates
