My tests do not start executing, and always timeout every time I try to use an xcodebuild command.
The command that I used is the following:
xcodebuild -workspace App.xcworkspace -scheme 'AppName' -sdk iphonesimulator -configuration 'UI_Automation' CODE_SIGN_STYLE='Manual' CODE_SIGN_IDENTITY='iPhone Developer: John Smith (XXXXXXXX)' PROVISIONING_PROFILE_SPECIFIER='John Smith PP Name' DEVELOPMENT_TEAM='ABC Company Apple DEV' -destination 'platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 8,OS=11.2' -destination-timeout 600 -only-testing:AppUITests clean test
It goes through a process where the app is built, but then the tests do not start executing. As a matter of fact, the Simulator does not even start, and I get the following error.
Testing failed:
Timed out waiting for AX loaded notification If you believe this error represents a bug, please attach the log file at /var/folders/zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n0000000000000/T/com.apple.dt.XCTest/IDETestRunSession-60333F56-66CA-4C34-8460-3846DCF59C14/AppUITests-F74C4FDD-17EE-44AD-A2BA-DDB1BC0A1D7E/Session-AppUITests-2017-12-28_150211-qwlao1.log
Does anyone know how to fix this? I have been racking my brain around this for the past 2 weeks and can't figure it out.
xcode build command changed since xcode 9. So you have to change your build command.
Follow the mentioned steps:
First build the project. Command for build app is
xcodebuild build-for-testing -workspace "Your.xcworkspace" -scheme "UpgradeAll" -destination "platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPad Air,OS=11.0" -derivedDataPath "All"
Then execute the test command using this.
xcodebuild test-without-building -xctestrun "All/Build/Products/UpgradeAll_iphonesimulator11.0-x86_64.xctestrun" -destination "platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPad Air,OS=11.0" '-only-testing:YourTestbundleName' -derivedDataPath 'build/reports/bundleName' | tee xcodebuild.log | ios-sim start --devicetypeid "iPad-Air, 11.0"
