Dynamic Library and Unit Testing - Module not found
Hi! I must be missing something. I am creating a MacOS dynamic library using Xcode. I have created the library as follows: File->New Project then choose macOS 'Library' in Frameworks and Libraries. I give the Product Name "TestLib". Framework: STL (C++ Library) Type: Dynamic This creates a default library project, with one exported class 'TestLib'. There's a method "HelloWorld". And this suffices for my issue. To be able to test my dynamic library, I want to use an XCtest target. So in the project settings, I select '+', and add a 'Unit Testing Bundle': Product name: TestLibTests Language: Swift Testing System: XCTest Project: TestLib Target to be tested: TestLib I press finish, and my test target is created. Now, I think I need to have a module map. So I Add New File From Template', and choose 'Module Map'. A 'module.modulemap' is created. In the module map file, I name the module 'TestLib', and header 'TestLib.h'. So far, everything makes sense, and no errors. But here it comes... When I want to make a testcase, I need to import the module. I first built the dylib library, to make sure it's built without errors and exists. Then I switch to the TestLibTests target and want to write my first test. Simply creating an object from the TestLib class. For that, I have to import the module, so I write 'import TestLib' after the 'import XCTest' at the top. And here is where I'm stuck. No matter what I do, Xcode just gives me the error 'No such module TestLib'. This should just work, right? I should be able to unit test my library. I have spent 2 days reading the internet and trying many suggestions, but I just can't get it to work. I am currently working with Xcode 26 beta. But I tried with Xcode 16.4 and that has the same issue. What am I missing?

Xcode unit test "Creating more than one Application"
When I try to make a unit test target for my macOS app that uses Objective-C, running tests fails, and the debugging log shows a message "Creating more than one Application". If, on the other hand, when I create the unit test target, I select "None" as the target to be tested, and then add all my sources to that target, my tests work. So, I can get my testing done, but I think I must be doing something wrong. By the way, along with the error message, there is a stack crawl: 0 CoreFoundation 0x00007ff8140410aa __exceptionPreprocess + 242 1 libobjc.A.dylib 0x00007ff813b660b7 objc_exception_throw + 48 2 Foundation 0x00007ff814f19bd8 -[NSCalendarDate initWithCoder:] + 0 3 AppKit 0x00007ff817030062 -[NSApplication init] + 1718 4 XCTestCore 0x000000010774b0df -[XCTestDriver _createTestBundlePrincipalClassInstance] + 82 5 XCTestCore 0x0000000107749338 -[XCTestDriver _runTests] + 111 6 XCTestCore 0x000000010770f194 _XCTestMain + 126 7 libXCTestBundleInject.dylib 0x0000000106e8982d __copy_helper_block_e8_32s + 0 8 CoreFoundation 0x00007ff813fc9a91 __CFRUNLOOP_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_A_BLOCK__ + 12 9 CoreFoundation 0x00007ff813fc99ca __CFRunLoopDoBlocks + 398 10 CoreFoundation 0x00007ff813fc883d __CFRunLoopRun + 898 11 CoreFoundation 0x00007ff813fc7e51 CFRunLoopRunSpecific + 560 12 HIToolbox 0x00007ff81da52f3d RunCurrentEventLoopInMode + 292 13 HIToolbox 0x00007ff81da52b84 ReceiveNextEventCommon + 199 14 HIToolbox 0x00007ff81da52aa8 _BlockUntilNextEventMatchingListInModeWithFilter + 64 15 AppKit 0x00007ff8170689d8 _DPSNextEvent + 858 16 AppKit 0x00007ff817067882 -[NSApplication(NSEvent) _nextEventMatchingEventMask:untilDate:inMode:dequeue:] + 1214 17 AppKit 0x00007ff817059ef7 -[NSApplication run] + 586 18 AppKit 0x00007ff81702e111 NSApplicationMain + 817 19 PlainCalc 0x00000001057d0a91 main + 65 20 dyld 0x00007ff813b93418 start + 1896

linking error file cannot be open()ed, errno=2
I have been learning from the Apple Developer tutorials and I got stuck on the ScoreKeeper chapter with Testing. Since my Macbook Pro 2017 can only use Xcode 15.2 as the highest level, I am having issues with it. I saw a forum post that a certain level of Swift and the tool chain would fix this. I attempted to install Swift 5.10.1 to then realize I only had Xcode 15.2 not 15.3, so I had to attempt to install Swift 5.9. Since neither option worked, I uninstalled Xcode and removed any extra files along with swift packages, minus my projects, to redownload and reinstall Xcode 15.2. Now I am having issues with building the scheme, and I get link error,s and they pertain to Swift 5.10.1, which I had not installed any Swift packages after the Xcode reinstallation. I have tried another previous project even a new one same error. This was 7/30/25, as of today 7/31 I tried to install Swift 5.9 thinking it would overwrite or "downgrade" the package, no such luck. The file path in the error stops at the /.../...RELEASE.pkg file and does not continue, which seems to be the issue of the error. How to I fix this issue, I had a working product 3 dyas ago

XCTest UI Tests Trigger Password Prompt on macOS Sequoia – How to Disable in CI?
Hi, we are using xctest UI tests integrated into a Jenkins CI pipeline. However, after upgrading the machine running automated tests to macOS Sequoia, we’re experiencing an issue: before each UI test, the system displays a popup asking for a password to allow XCTest to enable UI automation. Is there any known workaround for this, please? I’ve tried disabling SIP and modifying the TCC database, but nothing has worked so far. Thank you in advance. I’ve attached a screenshot of the popup.

code coverage broken 0% since Xcode 16.2
Hi, moving from Xcode 16.1 to 16.2, the code coverage percentage is still 0. The project is quite old, but it worked with 16.1. What I tried: converted the old tests to test plans in the settings, including all the various targets (for internal functionality contained in frameworks, each framework has its own test target). added the various code coverage flags to YES. added test hosts to the main targets. played with various settings found in dozens of guides. But nothing. The main app shows 0% coverage, even though the internal frameworks have their own coverage and the files within the main app are tested. On Xcode 16.1, the % appears, but from 16.2 onwards, it doesn't. Also tried with Xcode 26. Any ideas? Thanks

UI Automation not waiting on WatchOS?
On my MacBook Pro M4 with macOS 15.5 and Xcode 16.4, I have a simple SwiftUI-based WatchOS application consisting of a NavigationSplitView that displays a short List of items, and a detail view consisting of a TabView {...}.tabViewStyle(.verticalPage) that displays a fixed number of "pages" of detailed information about the selected list item. When I use XCTest UI Automation with XCUIApplication(), I am finding that I need to add a sleep(1) after every interaction, such as a .tap() or .swipeUp() before I can attempt any assertion such as XCTAssertGreaterThan(app.cells.count, 3) to ensure that the top level List of items is more than 3. All the added sleep(1) statements are making the tests very slow... It appears that the WatchOS implementation of UI Automation lacks the ability to wait until the UI event queue is idle. Am I the only one seeing this?

UI Tests with mock server
I'm using Xcode Cloud for release builds and unit tests, and it works fine. Recently, I added some XCUITests, but to run it the way I need I started to use this mock server. Basically, the idea is you define before each test what responses you want to get for specific requests. It works like a charm locally. But if I want to run it in Xcode Cloud, it looks like the server has failed to launch. The mock server is a separately launched binary file. I think this is because this permission I get when launch it locally. So, my question is how to allow this kind of permission in Xcode Cloud to make my UITests works correctly? You can find a detailed instruction how server is launched on a github page I provided.

Autogenerated UI Test Runner Blocked By Local Network Permission Prompt
I've recently updated one of our CI mac mini's to Sequoia in preparation for the transition to Tahoe later this year. Most things seemed to work just fine, however I see this dialog whenever the UI Tests try to run. This application BoostBrowerUITest-Runner is auto-generated by Xcode to launch your application and then run your UI Tests. We do not have any control over it, which is why this is most surprising. I've checked the codesigning identity with codesign -d -vvvv as well as looked at it's Info.plist and indeed the usage descriptions for everything are present (again, this is autogenerated, so I'm not surprised, but just wanted to confirm the string from the dialog was coming from this app) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>BuildMachineOSBuild</key> <string>22A380021</string> <key>CFBundleAllowMixedLocalizations</key> <true/> <key>CFBundleDevelopmentRegion</key> <string>en</string> <key>CFBundleExecutable</key> <string>BoostBrowserUITests-Runner</string> <key>CFBundleIdentifier</key> <string>company.thebrowser.Browser2UITests.xctrunner</string> <key>CFBundleInfoDictionaryVersion</key> <string>6.0</string> <key>CFBundleName</key> <string>BoostBrowserUITests-Runner</string> <key>CFBundlePackageType</key> <string>APPL</string> <key>CFBundleShortVersionString</key> <string>1.0</string> <key>CFBundleSignature</key> <string>????</string> <key>CFBundleSupportedPlatforms</key> <array> <string>MacOSX</string> </array> <key>CFBundleVersion</key> <string>1</string> <key>DTCompiler</key> <string>com.apple.compilers.llvm.clang.1_0</string> <key>DTPlatformBuild</key> <string>24A324</string> <key>DTPlatformName</key> <string>macosx</string> <key>DTPlatformVersion</key> <string>15.0</string> <key>DTSDKBuild</key> <string>24A324</string> <key>DTSDKName</key> <string>macosx15.0.internal</string> <key>DTXcode</key> <string>1620</string> <key>DTXcodeBuild</key> <string>16C5031c</string> <key>LSBackgroundOnly</key> <true/> <key>LSMinimumSystemVersion</key> <string>13.0</string> <key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key> <dict> <key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key> <true/> </dict> <key>NSAppleEventsUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSBluetoothAlwaysUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSCalendarsUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSContactsUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSDesktopFolderUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSDocumentsFolderUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSDownloadsFolderUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSFileProviderDomainUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSFileProviderPresenceUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSLocationUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSMotionUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSNetworkVolumesUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSRemindersUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSRemovableVolumesUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSSpeechRecognitionUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSSystemAdministrationUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>NSSystemExtensionUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> <key>OSBundleUsageDescription</key> <string>Access is necessary for automated testing.</string> </dict> </plist> Additionally, spctl --assess --type execute BoostBrowserUITests-Runner.app return an exit code of 0 so I assume that means it can launch just fine, and applications are allowed to be run from "anywhere" in System Settings. I've found the XCUIProtectedResource.localNetwork value, but it seems to only be accessible on iOS for some reason (FB17829325). I'm trying to figure out why this is happening on this machine so I can either fix our code or fix the machine. I have an Apple script that will allow it, but it's fiddly and I'd prefer to fix this the correct way either with the machine or with fixing our testing code.

Authentication in UI tests
Hello! I am writing UI tests for an app with OAuth authentication and want to avoid the login screen. I want each developer to store the password and username locally on their machines. The bash script will get the token. I need to access that token from my test target somehow. The idea was to write them to a temporary file that git ignores and access this file from the bundle. But I can't add the file from the build script to the target and make it accessible from the code.

SwiftMacros Not able to access of main project XCTest File.
I have developed a Swift macro called @CodableInit in the SwiftCodableMacro module, and I’m able to use it successfully in my main project. Here’s an example usage: import SwiftCodableMacro @CodableInit // This is for Codable macros public class ErrorMonitoringWebPlugin { public var identifier: UUID = UUID() // MARK: - Codable required public init(from decoder:Decoder) throws { let values = try decoder.container(keyedBy: CodingKeys.self) identifier = try values.decode(UUID.self, forKey: .identifier) } } However, when I try to write a unit test for the ErrorMonitoringWebPlugin class, I encounter an issue. Here's the test case: func testCodableSubjectIdentifierShouldEqualDecodedSubjectIdentifier() { self.measure { let encoder = JSONEncoder() let data = try? encoder.encode(subject) //Here I am getting this error Class 'JSONEncoder' requires that 'ErrorMonitoringWebPlugin' conform to 'Encodable' let decoder = JSONDecoder() let decodedSubject = try? decoder.decode(ErrorMonitoringWebPlugin.self, from: data!) XCTAssertEqual(subject.identifier, decodedSubject?.identifier) } } The compiler throws an error saying: Class 'JSONEncoder' requires that 'ErrorMonitoringWebPlugin' conform to 'Encodable' Even though the @CodableInit macro is supposed to generate conformance, it seems that this macro-generated code is not visible or active inside the test target. How can I ensure that the @CodableInit macro (from SwiftCodableMacro) is correctly applied and recognized within the XCTest target of my main project?

Xcode 16 | xcodebuild fails when providing -destination 'platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 16,arch=x86_64'
Hello. In the Xcode 15 we were using this command in the terminal to run our tests on the Rosetta Simulator: xcodebuild -workspace CoreLibraries.xcworkspace -scheme CoreLibraries -destination 'platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 15,arch=x86_64' test` In the Xcode 16 the same command doesn't work anymore. It produces the error: xcodebuild: error: Unable to find a device matching the provided destination specifier: { platform:iOS Simulator, arch:x86_64, OS:latest, name:iPhone 16 } Unsupported device specifier option. The device “iPhone 16” does not support the following options: arch Please supply only supported device specifier options. Running test directly from the Xcode UI using iPhone 16 (Rosetta) still works fine. Does anyone know how to modify the xcodebuild command to make it work again?

run XCUITest with an SKStoreReviewController
I'm building out a number of XCUITests. At one stage in my app, we present an SKStoreReviewController to ask the user if they'd like to review the app now. All I'd like to do is dismiss the view, by hitting the "Not Now" button. Normally, for other "system" views, I'd something like this: let springboard = XCUIApplication(bundleIdentifier: "com.apple.springboard") let notNowButton = springboard.buttons["Not Now"] And then I'd do an appropriate 'wait' and tap action. But for some reason, this isn't working. Looking for advice on how to properly handle this screen.

Tabbar UITest bug on tvOS
When running UITests on tvOS, tabBar viewIdentifiers (UIKit) are no longer appearing. When you run the test, accessibility identifiers for tabs are no longer locatable but all other identifiers appears except for the tabs in the tabBar. In the stack trace of the debugger, if I print application, I can see all existing viewIdentifiers except those that were set for the tabs (on tvOS only). If I force an action on the simulator after the app has launched and the view appeared ie move left or right, the identifiers appears (confirmed by stack trace) and the test will continue as expected. This was not an issue in the past (no code changes). I am not sure if this appeared after updating my mac to Sequoia. But for iOS, there is no issue. This bug only appears on tvOS and specifically the tabs. Issue persists on: Sequoia 15.4.1 Xcode 16.3

Xcode Not Displaying Code Coverage for Main App When Using Test Plan on iOS Simulator
I am encountering an issue where code coverage data is not showing for my main app in Xcode when running tests for the iOS simulator. However, code coverage is being reported correctly for some modules. Enable Code Coverage Support: YES Xcode 16.2 macOS: 15.3.1 Macbook Pro M1 14-inch, 2021 Despite these configurations, Xcode fails to show code coverage for the main app. Can anyone suggest what might be causing this issue and how to ensure code coverage is correctly reported for the main app during simulator builds?

No screenshot files in XCResult files using Xcode 16.1
Hello, I am using Xcode 16.1 (16B40) on MacOS Sequoia 15.1.0 using a Macbook pro M1 Max I am developing an app for iOS 17 and 18 using SwiftUI I created UITests to take the screenshots for the appStore on the simulator The tests run well and all of them are succeded The problem appears when I try to get the screenshot files from the xcresult files after the test. There is not any screenshot inside it. I found a data folder and a Info.plist file. In the data folder there are a lot of files with this pattern data.03zD4C6IGFFthK14NwA8mNvcwFHT16g6Tl40Tl1YmBC1bNh6d0YIcnWKyUaQPDXoa8fYo6C3Xcv8xvMtE3_NEXA== and other files with this pattern refs.03zD4C6IGFFthK14NwA8mNvcwFHT16g6Tl40Tl1YmBC1bNh6d0YIcnWKyUaQPDXoa8fYo6C3Xcv8xvMtE3_NEXA== Ok, I tryed to use fastlane to automatize the screenshots but the problem is still present. The xcresult files have not any png file. I had no problems doing this action (getting screenshots from a xcresult file) in previous versions of MacOS and Xcode in my current machine. I just updated my machine to MacOS Sequoia 15.1.1 and the problem is still present Honestly I don't know how to fix this situation. With Xcode 15 I had not any problem with that but I am not sure if Xcode 16.0 was runing without problems because I didn't need to use this functionality in those months Here is my code for a UITest: import XCTest final class ScreenshotsUITests: XCTestCase { let app = XCUIApplication() let device = "iPhone16" override func setUpWithError() throws { continueAfterFailure = true } override func tearDownWithError() throws {} @MainActor func testEnglishScreens() throws { let lang = "en" app.launchArguments.append("UITestMode") app.launchArguments += ["-AppleLanguages", "(en)"] app.launchArguments += ["-AppleLocale", "en_US"] app.launch() executeTestsForMenus(lang: lang, backLabel: "Back") executeTestForMatch(lang: lang) } @MainActor func testSpanishScreens() throws { let lang = "es" app.launchArguments.append("UITestMode") app.launchArguments += ["-AppleLanguages", "(es)"] app.launchArguments += ["-AppleLocale", "es_ES"] app.launch() executeTestsForMenus(lang: lang, backLabel: "Atrás") executeTestForMatch(lang: lang) } private func executeTestForMatch(lang: String) { let startButton = app.buttons["start-button"] startButton.tap() let key4 = app.buttons["key-4"] XCTAssertTrue(key4.waitForExistence(timeout: 30), "Key 4 in match screen is not found") key4.tap() let key2 = app.buttons["key-2"] XCTAssertTrue(key2.exists, "Key 2 in match screen is not found") key2.tap() makeScreenShot("playing", lang: lang) let closeButton = app.buttons["close-button"] XCTAssertTrue(closeButton.exists, "Close button in match screen is not found") closeButton.tap() } private func executeTestsForMenus(lang: String, backLabel: String) { let mainHeader = app.staticTexts["Math match"] XCTAssertTrue(mainHeader.exists, "Header in main screen is not found") makeScreenShot("mainMenu", lang: lang) let settingsButton = app.buttons["settings-button"] XCTAssertTrue(settingsButton.exists, "Settings button in main screen is not found") settingsButton.tap() makeScreenShot("Settings", lang: lang) let backButton = app.buttons[backLabel] XCTAssertTrue(backButton.exists, "Back button in match screen is not found") backButton.tap() let helpButton = app.buttons["help-button"] XCTAssertTrue(helpButton.exists, "Help button in main screen is not found") helpButton.tap() makeScreenShot("Help", lang: lang) backButton.tap() let scoreButton = app.buttons["score-button"] XCTAssertTrue(scoreButton.exists, "Scores button in main screen is not found") scoreButton.tap() makeScreenShot("Scores", lang: lang) backButton.tap() let playButton = app.buttons["play-button"] XCTAssertTrue(playButton.exists, "Play button in main screen is not found") playButton.tap() makeScreenShot("matchBuilder", lang: lang) let startButton = app.buttons["start-button"] XCTAssertTrue(startButton.exists, "Start button in match builder screen is not found") } private func makeScreenShot(_ name: String, lang: String) { takeScreenshot(app, named: "\(lang)-\(name)-\(device)") } } import XCTest extension XCTestCase { func takeScreenshot(_ app: XCUIApplication, named name: String, fullScreen: Bool = false) { let screenshot: XCUIScreenshot if fullScreen { screenshot = app.windows.firstMatch.screenshot() } else { screenshot = XCUIScreen.main.screenshot() } let screenshotAttachment = XCTAttachment( uniformTypeIdentifier: "public.png", name: "screenshot-\(name).png", payload: screenshot.pngRepresentation, userInfo: nil) screenshotAttachment.lifetime = .keepAlways add(screenshotAttachment) } } and here is the content of my testplan file: { "configurations" : [ { "id" : "35BC7C0B-9A5A-4027-9F30-36958C4C1AAF", "name" : "Test Scheme Action", "options" : { "preferredScreenCaptureFormat" : "screenshot", "testExecutionOrdering" : "random", "uiTestingScreenshotsLifetime" : "keepAlways", "userAttachmentLifetime" : "keepAlways" } } ], "defaultOptions" : { "targetForVariableExpansion" : { "containerPath" : "container:myAppProject.xcodeproj", "identifier" : "B27D1B022CA00314001A259B", "name" : "MyAppProject" } }, "testTargets" : [ { "parallelizable" : true, "target" : { "containerPath" : "container:MyAppProject.xcodeproj", "identifier" : "B27D1B122CA00315001A259B", "name" : "MyAppProjectTests" } }, { "parallelizable" : true, "target" : { "containerPath" : "container:MyAppProject.xcodeproj", "identifier" : "B27D1B1C2CA00315001A259B", "name" : "MyAppProjectUITests" } } ], "version" : 1 } I made tests with old projects in my machine and those projects have the same problem with screenshot files in the xcresult bundles I don't know if the problem is in my machine, my Xcode, MacOS or other ting. I don't know how to fix this problem Please, can anyone help me? Thanks in advance

Unexpected behaviour of hardware keyboard focus in UITests
Hello! I was faced with unexpected behavior of hardware keyboard focus in UITests. A clear description of the problem When running UITests on the iOS Simulator with both "Full Keyboard Access" and "Connect Hardware Keyboard" options enabled, there is a noticeable delay between keyboard actions for focus managing (like pressing Tab or arrow keys). The delay seems to increase with repeated input and suggests that events are being queued instead of processed immediately. I will describe why I have such an assumption later. A step-by-step set of instructions to reproduce the problem Launch the iOS Simulator. Enable both "Full Keyboard Access" and "Connect Hardware Keyboard" in the Simulator settings. Run a UITest on a target application (ideally an endless or long-running test). Once the app is launched, press the Tab key several times. Observe the delay in focus movement. Optionally, press the Tab or arrow keys rapidly, then stop the UITest. After stopping, you’ll see a burst of rapid focus changes. What results you expected We expected keyboard actions (like Tab) to be handled immediately and the UI focus to update smoothly during UITests. What results you saw There was a 4–10 (end more) second delay between pressing keys and seeing a response. All stacked keyboard events (used for managing focus) are performed all at once after stopping the UITest. The version of Xcode you are using Xcode: Version 16.3 (16E140) Simulator: iPhone 16 Pro (iOS 18.4 and 18.1) Simulator: iPad Pro 11-inch (M4) (iPadOS 17.5)

GroupBox breaks ability of XCTest to find popovers?
I'm using Xcode 14.3.1 on macOS 13.5, and I've managed to reproduce my issue in a trivial application. All the project settings are left at the defaults for a macOS project. It looks like using a GroupBox breaks the ability of XCTest to find popovers connected to buttons (I suspect any UI element) inside the GroupBox. The debug console output from the code below lists 15 descendants from my window with the outside-the-GroupBox popover open, and one of them is definitely a popover. With the inside-the-GroupBox popover open, my window only shows nine descendants, and no popover (the rest of the difference is the popover's contents). It's simple enough I don't see what I could be doing wrong: import SwiftUI @main struct GroupBox_Popover_DemoApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } } } struct ContentView: View { @State var outsidePopoverPresented: Bool = false @State var insidePopoverPresented: Bool = false var body: some View { VStack { Button("Outside GroupBox") { outsidePopoverPresented = true } .popover(isPresented: $outsidePopoverPresented, attachmentAnchor: .point(.leading), arrowEdge: .leading) { Popover(selected: .constant("Item A"), isPresented: $outsidePopoverPresented) } .padding() GroupBox { Button("Inside GroupBox") { insidePopoverPresented = true } .popover(isPresented: $insidePopoverPresented, attachmentAnchor: .point(.leading), arrowEdge: .leading) { Popover(selected: .constant("Item B"), isPresented: $insidePopoverPresented) } .padding() } } .padding() } } struct Popover: View { @Binding var selected: String @Binding var isPresented: Bool var body: some View { VStack(alignment: .leading) { Picker("", selection: $selected) { Text("Item A").tag("Item A") Text("Item B").tag("Item B") Text("Item C").tag("Item C") } .pickerStyle(.radioGroup) HStack { Spacer() Button("Cancel") { isPresented = false } } } .padding() .frame(width: 200) } } Then in my UI tests: import XCTest final class GroupBox_Popover_DemoUITests: XCTestCase { let mainWindow = XCUIApplication().windows override func setUpWithError() throws { continueAfterFailure = false XCUIApplication().launch() } func testPopovers() { let myDescendants = mainWindow.descendants(matching: .any) mainWindow.buttons["Outside GroupBox"].click() print("Window descendants with outside popover open:") print(myDescendants.debugDescription) mainWindow.popovers.buttons["Cancel"].click() mainWindow.buttons["Inside GroupBox"].click() print("Window descendants with inside popover open:") print(myDescendants.debugDescription) mainWindow.popovers.buttons["Cancel"].click() XCTAssert(true, "Test was able to hit cancel on both popovers.") } } Any ideas? Have I missed unchecking some "Ignore anything in a GroupBox" checkbox somewhere?
