I am trying to change the Mac OS Apps to a new locale other than English using the following arguments in XCUITest:
app.launchArguments = [
"-inUITest",
"-AppleLanguages",
"(nl)",
"-AppleLocale",
"nl_NL"
]
But I get the following message on the console:
Launching macOS application via NSWorkspace while sandboxed. Launch arguments and environment variables may be dropped
The app loads in English itself.
Is there any other way I can change the language of such apps ?
I DONT mind changing the system language as well, but it needs to be done programatically. I tried writing a zsh script to do sudo languagesetup
but it requires a restart for the system language to change, which I can't do when my automation is running. If there is any other way please let me know.
EDIT: I open a third party app using the bundle Identifier, like this:
XCUIApplication(bundleIdentifier: "<app-bundle-name>")
