How do you set up XCUITest for your iOS app project?

Open a Project in XCode, then "File > New > Target". Choose a UI Testing Bundle Option. Fill in the required fields, click on Finish and let us look up at the test code all ready and generated by XCode.

Targets are the set of configuration settings that can define what to build. It could be module target, UnitTest target, UITest target or other targets. Check the list of targets from Project Root > Editor area.

To set up XCUITest for your iOS app project, start by ensuring you have Xcode installed. Create or open your iOS project in Xcode, then add a new test target by selecting "File" > "New" > "Target" and choosing "iOS Unit Testing Bundle." Xcode will set up the necessary test environment. Next, import the XCTest framework in your test files and use XCUITest classes to write UI test cases. You can access UI elements using XCUIElement and perform actions like tapping or entering text. Run your tests from Xcode’s test navigator and review results in the report navigator.

XCUITest is a tool for iOS UI testing that involves creating a test target, linking frameworks, and assigning accessibility identifiers. To write a test case, open the test class file and start with a simple test. Use the XCTest API to interact with your app's UI, and structure your test using setUp and tearDown methods. Use descriptive method names for each test case. Resources for XCUITest include Apple's documentation, tutorials, and videos. Start with basic tests and gradually increase complexity.

To record a test in Xcode, ensure your app is running on a simulator or connected device. Create a UI Testing Bundle target and open the generated test class file. Record the test method, enable recording, launch your app, start recording, and interact with the app. Review and edit the recorded test, verifying it accurately reflects your interaction. You can also manually edit the code or add assertions. Run the test using the "Test" function and observe the results. For better recording accuracy, use meaningful element names, organize tests logically, and use Xcode's UI Object Library to access frequently used elements.

To set up XCUITest for your iOS app project, start by creating a new Xcode UI Testing target in your Xcode project. This generates a new test target with a default test file. Write your UI tests in this file, using Xcode's UI recording feature or manually coding tests. You can interact with app elements using XCUIElement queries and actions. To run and debug a test, select the scheme for your app target and choose the UI Testing target. Press the play button or use the shortcut Cmd+U to run the tests. Xcode will launch the simulator or connect to a physical device, executing the tests and providing feedback in the test navigator. You can set breakpoints, inspect variables, and view test results in the Xcode console.

.xctestplan file extension contains test configuration and set of test case. We can create multiple test plan with different set of testcase and run when required. Xcodebuild build-for-testing command line option is the convenient way to run and execute the Testplan on CI pipeline
