I'm trying to automate the functional testing I have in my project. For this, I use Jenkins and run the test tasks using the post-receive git hook. The job is properly invoked, but before the tests are run, I need to erase the simulators in order to tests first time startup of the app. I do the following:
#!/bin/bash --login
# simulator we want
sim="iPhone 6"
# close the iOS simulator if open
echo "Trying to close iOS Simulator"
osascript -e 'tell app "iOS Simulator" to quit'
# find all booted devices
booted=( $(xcrun simctl list | sed -n 's/.*(\(.*\)) (Booted)/\1/p') )
if [ ${#booted[@]} != 0 ]; then
echo 'Found the following booted devices:'
for device in ${booted[@]}
do
echo $device
done
else
echo 'There are no booted devices, skipping'
fi
# shutdown all of them to be able to erase them
for device in ${booted[@]}
do
echo "Trying to shutdown $device"
xcrun simctl shutdown $device
echo "Done"
done
# sanity check, all devices should be shutdown
booted=( $(xcrun simctl list | sed -n 's/.*(\(.*\)) (Booted)/\1/p') )
if [ ${#booted[@]} != 0 ]; then
echo 'Even though we shut down all the devices, some devices are still booted:'
for device in ${booted[@]}
do
echo $device
done
exit 1
fi
# erase the device so we can test index page and tutorial
allDevices=( $(xcrun simctl list | sed -En 's/.* \((.*)\) \((Shutdown)\)/\1/p') )
for device in ${allDevices[@]}
do
echo "Erasing device $device"
xcrun simctl erase $device
echo
done
# sanity check, all devices should be shutdown
booted=( $(xcrun simctl list | sed -n 's/.*(\(.*\)) (Booted)/\1/p') )
if [ ${#booted[@]} != 0 ]; then
echo 'Even though we shut down all the devices, some devices are still booted:'
for device in ${booted[@]}
do
echo $device
done
exit 1
fi
echo device list:
echo $(xcrun simctl list)
dev=( $(xcrun simctl list | sed -En 's/'"$sim"' \((.*)\) \((Shutdown)\)/\1/p') )
echo Booting the device $dev
xcrun simctl boot $dev
# clean is not good enough, need to remove DerivedData contents manually
rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData
/usr/local/bin/xctool -workspace MyApp.xcworkspace -scheme MyApp_QA2 clean
xcodebuild -workspace MyApp.xcworkspace -scheme MyApp_QA2 -destination 'platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 6,OS=8.1' test | xcpretty -c -r html
When I run this, I get:
These lines are responsible for booting:
dev=( $(xcrun simctl list | sed -En 's/'"$sim"' \((.*)\) \((Shutdown)\)/\1/p') )
echo Booting the device $dev
xcrun simctl boot $dev
So, I comment them, but then the build fails with:
2015-03-10 09:56:13.036 xcodebuild[84840:4008451] [MT] iPhoneSimulator: Unable to connect to "com.apple.instruments.deviceservice.lockdown" (Error Domain=com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimError Code=146 "Unable to lookup in current state: Shutdown" UserInfo=0x7fbcb2f00af0 {NSLocalizedDescription=Unable to lookup in current state: Shutdown})
Looks to me like Xcode and simctl can't agree which one should be responsible for booting the correct sim. Any ideas?
