Method 1:
The class that provides the GPS coordinates from the phone's sensor should be behind an interface and the concrete class not referenced directly by the code being tested. It should be passed into the constructor or created via dependency injection.
Create a test object that implements the interface and use dependency injection/pass it in to the code being tested. The test object returns pre-determined test coordinates allowing you to test the location services logic.

Method 2:
Instead of using an interface, you could use a mocking framework and do the same thing.

Mocking is a good way to test, but the interface should allow us to mock the concrete class.

1) Take the smartphone at various places like (basement, on the roof, inside a room), to check the accuracy of location
2) Use the service when you are moving
3) You may try it at places like rivers, mountains to check if its working over there or not.
