This post is from the WWDC26 CarPlay Q&A.
I'm looking for options concerning this matter, aiming to have automatized tests in a navigation app. I wasn't able to control either the iOS simulator's extended display nor the CarPlay Simulator (additional tools) via available CLI commands. I couldn’t scan for AX elements either. Closest thing I found is to control the macOS window, take screenshots and simulate user gestures using an agentic workflow. May I have missed something regarding already available tooling?
