How do I write UI tests with XCUITest?

UI testing in Swift using XCUITest allows developers to automate the testing of user interfaces in iOS applications. It helps ensure that the app behaves as expected from the user's perspective. Below is an example of how to set up and write a simple UI test using XCUITest in Swift.

To create a UI test, you need to use XCTest framework and write your test cases. Here’s an example of a basic UI test that verifies if a button tap works correctly:

// Import the XCTest framework import XCTest class MyAppUITests: XCTestCase { // Set up the application override func setUp() { super.setUp() // Continue after failure continueAfterFailure = false // Launch the app let app = XCUIApplication() app.launch() } // Example UI test func testButtonTap() { let app = XCUIApplication() // Assume there's a button with accessibility identifier "myButton" let myButton = app.buttons["myButton"] XCTAssertTrue(myButton.exists) myButton.tap() // Verify if the tap resulted in the expected outcome let resultLabel = app.staticTexts["resultLabel"] XCTAssertEqual(resultLabel.label, "Expected Result") } }
