I'm trying to close the UIFontPickerViewController in a UI test by tapping the close button in the navigation bar. In a default iOS app, I embed the default storyboard view controller in a navigation view controller, then in code I open the font picker like this: class ViewController: UIViewController, UIFontPickerViewControllerDelegate { override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) { let picker = UIFontPickerViewController(configuration: .init()) picker.delegate = self self.present(picker, animated: true) } func fontPickerViewControllerDidPickFont(_ viewController: UIFontPickerViewController) { } } And the UI test looks like this: final class problemUITests: XCTestCase { @MainActor func testExample() throws { let app = XCUIApplication() app.launch() sleep(2) let button = app.navigationBars.element(boundBy: 1).buttons.element(boundBy: 0) print(button.debugDescription) XCTAssert(button.waitForExistence(timeout: 2)) button.tap() } } When running the UI test, the XCTAssert always fails and the button.tap() also fails with an error message Failed to tap "chiudi" Button: No matches found for Element at index 1 from input {( NavigationBar )} "chiudi" means "close" in Italian, my macOS system language. It sounds to me like I correctly get the close button, but the messages Xcode prints make no sense to me. It's particularly confusing given that the output of the print statement shows that the button is there, but somehow fails to be tapped: Attributes: Button, 0x104f44660, {{701.0, 320.0}, {43.0, 44.0}}, label: 'chiudi' Element subtree: →Button, 0x104f44660, {{701.0, 320.0}, {43.0, 44.0}}, label: 'chiudi' Image, 0x104f44780, {{709.0, 327.5}, {30.0, 30.0}}, identifier: 'UICloseButtonBackground' Path to element: →Application, 0x104f35940, pid: 29803, label: 'problem' ↳Window (Main), 0x104f376a0, {{0.0, 0.0}, {1032.0, 1376.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f42e10, {{0.0, 0.0}, {1032.0, 1376.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f43100, {{0.0, 0.0}, {1032.0, 1376.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f43220, {{0.0, 0.0}, {1032.0, 1376.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f43340, {{0.0, 0.0}, {1032.0, 1376.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f43460, {{0.0, 0.0}, {1032.0, 1376.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f43580, {{0.0, 0.0}, {1032.0, 1376.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f436a0, {{0.0, 0.0}, {1032.0, 1376.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f437c0, {{0.0, 0.0}, {1032.0, 1376.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f438e0, {{0.0, 0.0}, {1032.0, 1376.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f43a00, {{0.0, 0.0}, {1032.0, 1376.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f43b20, {{0.0, 0.0}, {1032.0, 1376.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f43c40, {{276.0, 314.0}, {480.0, 748.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f43e80, {{276.0, 314.0}, {480.0, 748.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f43fa0, {{276.0, 314.0}, {480.0, 748.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f440c0, {{276.0, 314.0}, {480.0, 748.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f441e0, {{276.0, 314.0}, {480.0, 748.0}} ↳Other, 0x104f44300, {{276.0, 314.0}, {480.0, 748.0}} ↳NavigationBar, 0x104f44420, {{276.0, 314.0}, {480.0, 108.0}}, identifier: 'Scegli font' ↳Button, 0x104f44660, {{701.0, 320.0}, {43.0, 44.0}}, label: 'chiudi' Query chain: →Find: Target Application 'org.desairem.problem' Output: { Application, 0x104f781b0, pid: 29803, label: 'problem' } ↪︎Find: Descendants matching type NavigationBar Output: { NavigationBar, 0x10607c0d0, {{0.0, 24.0}, {1032.0, 50.0}}, identifier: 'UIFontPickerView' NavigationBar, 0x10607dab0, {{276.0, 314.0}, {480.0, 108.0}}, identifier: 'Scegli font' } ↪︎Find: Element at index 1 Output: { NavigationBar, 0x1064693a0, {{276.0, 314.0}, {480.0, 108.0}}, identifier: 'Scegli font' } ↪︎Find: Descendants matching type Button Output: { Button, 0x104f714a0, {{701.0, 320.0}, {43.0, 44.0}}, label: 'chiudi' Button, 0x104f71800, {{711.0, 378.0}, {17.0, 22.0}}, identifier: 'Dictate', label: 'Avvia dettatura' } ↪︎Find: Element at index 0 Output: { Button, 0x104f5d5e0, {{701.0, 320.0}, {43.0, 44.0}}, label: 'chiudi' }

We have widget snapshot tests using XCTest as shown below: func testHomeWidgetView() { let widgetView = HomeWidgetView( state: .done, text: "All done!" ).frame(width: 170, height: 170) assertSnapshot(matching: widgetView, as: .image) } } Is it possible to apply a tint to the widgets in snapshot tests like a user can from their home screen in iOS 18? We'd like to capture snapshots of our widget while tinted via the home screen.

A UI test case that checks for the existence of a SwiftUI Text element initialized with an empty string previously reliably passed in iOS 17. In iOS 18 the assertion reliably fails. I searched the iOS 18 developer release notes for anything possibly related to this but didn't find much. I'd like to point to a conclusive change in iOS handling before changing the test permantently. Can anyone confirm that this is indeed a change in iOS 18?

I get this error from time to time in UI tests when they are run on CI. Any ideas what might be causing this error?

Hello Developers, I regularly use Xcode Cloud to run unit tests, but since the release of Xcode 16, the testing process has become significantly slower. I am seeking advice on how to improve the situation. [ Details ] With Xcode 15.4, unit tests took about 1 hour to complete. However, since upgrading to Xcode 16, the tests have not finished even after 2 hours. The blog post linked below also mentions significant overhead in running unit tests on Xcode Cloud, even with Xcode 15.4: https://dwango.github.io/articles/2024-07_nicoiphone_xcode_cloud/#%E3%83%86%E3%82%B9%E3%83%88%E5%AE%9F%E8%A1%8C%E6%99%82%E9%96%93%E3%81%8C%E5%A2%97%E5%8A%A0%E3%81%97%E3%81%A6%E3%81%97%E3%81%BE%E3%81%86%E5%95%8F%E9%A1%8C According to the blog, while reviewing the xcodebuild-test-without-building.log, it was observed that the time from start to finish was about 4 minutes. However, the overall “Run xcodebuild test-without-building” process took 23 minutes, with around 20 minutes of apparent idle time. It seems that the idle time has increased even further with Xcode 16, resulting in more than twice the testing time. [ Question/Request ] Is there any way to reduce the overhead when running unit tests on Xcode Cloud, especially with the increased overhead in Xcode 16? Any advice or solutions for improving the performance would be greatly appreciated. Best regards,

When using Xcode's "Build for Testing", I have noticed the resulting MyApp.xctestrun file has an array of CodeCoverageBuildableInfos. This array has all of our built targets. They all have an Architectures array property. For all of our targets this is set to x86_64 when we build for Any iOS Simulator. This is irrespective of what we have "ARCHS" and "ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH" set to (in our case we only want arm64). We do have a number of local swift packages defined, each with their own test targets. We are using a test plan for these tests. This is causing issues when processing the resulting xcresult file since it is complaining that it can't find objects for the correct architecture when calculating code coverage. No object file for requested architecture No coverage data found. (Underlying Error: No object file for requested architecture)

Hello everyone, I’m having trouble configuring SKTestSession for StoreKit testing in my UI tests. Specifically, I’m encountering the ASDErrorDomain Code 505 error when trying to set the storefront and locale in my test configuration. Despite following the setup steps, I keep getting errors indicating that the storefront and locale cannot be set, and the transactions are not being processed correctly. Here are the error messages I’m seeing: [SKTestSession] Error saving configuration file: Error Domain=ASDErrorDomain Code=505 "(null)" [SKTestSession] Error setting storefront to JPN for com.company.product: Error Domain=ASDErrorDomain Code=505 "(null)" [SKTestSession] Error fetching the current storefront: Error Domain=ASDErrorDomain Code=505 "(null)" [SKTestSession] Error setting value to ja for identifier 4 for com.company.product: Error Domain=ASDErrorDomain Code=505 "(null)" [SKTestSession] Error fetching value for identifier 4 for com.company.product: Error Domain=ASDErrorDomain Code=505 "(null)" These errors suggest that SKTestSession is unable to save or apply the configuration properly, but I’m not sure why. I’ve tried various storefronts and locales, but the issue persists. I’m running this on Xcode 16.0 (16A242d) on macOS 14.7 and 15. Below is the code for the setUpSession function I’m using to configure the session: func setUpSession(configuration: String = "Configuration", storefront: String? = nil, localeIdentifier: String? = nil) throws -> SKTestSession { var session: SKTestSession! try XCTContext.runActivity(named: "Set up subscriptions for \"\(configuration)\" storefront: \"\(storefront ?? "")\" and locale: \"\(localeIdentifier ?? "")\"") { activity in session = try SKTestSession(configurationFileNamed: configuration) if let storefront { session.storefront = storefront } if let localeIdentifier { session.locale = Locale(identifier: localeIdentifier) } session.disableDialogs = true let info = XCTAttachment(string: "storefront: \(session.storefront)\nlocale: \(session.locale.identifier)\ntransactions: \(session.allTransactions().count)") info.name = "Session configuration" activity.add(info) XCTAssertEqual(session.storefront, storefront, "Failed to set storefront") XCTAssertEqual(session.locale.identifier, localeIdentifier, "Failed to set locale") } return session } What I’ve Tried: Ensuring that storefront and locale values are valid. Resetting StoreKit configuration in Xcode’s scheme settings. Deleting derived data and restarting Xcode. Testing with different values for storefront and locale. Has anyone encountered similar issues with ASDErrorDomain Code 505, or can anyone point out what might be causing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Apparently UI tests are unable to tap menu buttons but can tap regular buttons inside forms. Earlier today I was able to see in the Simulator that the UI test tries to tap the button by tapping the center of the containing form row, which works for regular buttons, but not for menu buttons. In fact, when trying in the SwiftUI preview in Xcode it seems that menu buttons have to be tapped exactly on top of them, while regular buttons can be tapped anywhere in the form row. (Now I’m not able to see touches performed by the UI test anymore in the Simulator for an unknown reason, even though I have “Show single touches” enabled in the Simulator settings.) How can I open a menu button in a UI test? The UI code: struct ContentView: View { @State private var label1 = "Menu 1" @State private var label2 = "Menu 2" var body: some View { NavigationStack { Form { LabeledContent("Menu 1") { Button(label1) { label1 = "Menu 1 tapped" } .accessibilityIdentifier("menu1") } LabeledContent("Menu 2") { Menu(label2) { Button("Button") { } .accessibilityIdentifier("button") } .accessibilityIdentifier("menu2") } } } } } #Preview { ContentView() } And the test: final class problemUITests: XCTestCase { func testExample() throws { // UI tests must launch the application that they test. let app = XCUIApplication() app.launch() app.collectionViews.element(boundBy: 0).buttons["menu1"].tap() app.collectionViews.element(boundBy: 0).buttons["menu2"].tap() app.collectionViews.element(boundBy: 0).buttons["button"].tap() } }

I am trying to browse an SSH Service from UI Test Target using NWBrowser let descriptor = NWBrowser.Descriptor.bonjour(type: "_superapp._tcp", domain: "local.") let browser = NWBrowser(for: descriptor, using: .tcp) browser.stateUpdateHandler = { newState in print("browser.stateUpdateHandler \(newState)") } I get failed(-65555: NoAuth) error nw_browser_fail_on_dns_error_locked [B1] DNSServiceBrowse failed: NoAuth(-65555) I have added _superapp._tcp in Bonjour Services for UI Test Target Info.plist. I have also added Local Network Permission in UI Test Target Info.plist. Everything works fine, when I call this Bonjour service from App Target. Doesn't work when I call this from UI Test Target.

Am trying to automate below drop down but iOS Accessibility inspector is unable to detect the element. Even we tried with Appium Inspector issue is same. Drop down: https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-native-element-dropdown We tried to debug the dropdown component. In that we can see the value is rendered properly from react. We have raised the issue with Appium, but they have given few suggestions in the Appium setting but it didn't solve. Now it's something that has to be done from XCTest Framework end. Appium issue git link: https://github.com/appium/appium/issues/14825

I have a + image in the UI from the following code struct QueryPlusButton: View { var body: some View { Button { } label: { Image(systemName: "plus") } } } However, I'm not able to query the + image in XCTest using any of the following queries let view = app.images["plus"] //let view = app.staticTexts["plus"] //let view = app.buttons["plus"] XCTAssertTrue(view.exists, "Plus button does not exist") The test fails. Is there a methodical way to determine what a query is for any UI element? Thank you.

Hello! When running tests on iOS 17, the build succeeds but does not run on iOS 16. It consistently gets stuck on 'Testing'. This issue does not occur on iOS 17.

When I run a XCTest test on an IOS Target device, the test runs but the simulator is not opened so I can follow the screens being displayed and the key strokes. And when I initiate a record for a test method, it just hangs and never runs or open a simulator. Is anyone else experiencing these same issues running XCTest? Is this legacy framework not working with XCode 16 by design?

I tried to use XCTest to test my own project that uses EndpointSecurity, but when I created the esClient I got an error:ES_NEW_CLIENT_RESULT_ERR_NOT_PRIVILEGED, indicating that it was not root. This makes it impossible for me to do coverage tests for the ESClient application. Is there any way I can implement this ESClient test? If so, how should I use it? The project is a macOS program, if I use gcov, but I find I can't get coverage. Using __gcov_flush will indicate that there is no symbol #if !TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES); NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0]; setenv("GCOV_PREFIX", [documentsDirectory cStringUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding], 1); setenv("GCOV_PREFIX_STRIP", "13", 1); #endif extern void __gcov_flush(void); __gcov_flush(); #endif

Is it a good idea to automate API calls used in my mobile APP in XCtests and check if response is in expected format. I want to test all the API calls used inside my app at one place rather than testing each feature which internally calls that API. This way I want to sure that my API's are working
