We need to install Xamarin Test Cloud Agent for the ATXamarin.iOS project.Īfter the package is added, we have to enter the following code block in the AppDelegate.cs class: #if ENABLE_TEST_CLOUDĪfter this, we can run Xamarin.UITest tests on the iOS simulator. But at this stage, there can be an error with the customization of Calabash components. We need the identifier of the iPhone 11 (iOS 13.3).Īfter we enter all the necessary data, we can run our tests. In order to get this identifier, we can use the following command: xcrun instruments -s devices Obviously, we have to specify the identifier of our simulator too. The path should be specified relative to the folder with our test. The configuration that I will consider here is debug and release and the platforms are simulator and device. Here I am just considering it for only two configurations and platforms, but you can make it as per your choice. To run Xamarin.UITest tests, we need to change the configuration of the AppInitializer.cs class.įor this, we have to take a path to the app in the AppBundle method. Xamarin.iOS provides very useful build options, that can be used with various configurations and platforms. The Mac is required for building as well as running the iOS simulator.
In our case, we will choose the simulator of the iPhone 11 (iOS 13.3). Yes, you must have a Mac to do Xamarin.iOS development. To install the application, we need to select the simulator (where the app will be installed and launched) and click on the Play button.
To launch the app on the Xamarin iOS platform, we need to change our development environment to the necessary configuration of ATXamarin.iOS. Open the project with Visual Studio for Mac.Īfter the project is built, we can install our Xamarin.Forms app on the Android device.Īnd then, we can run our Xamarin.UITest tests against the Android device. Since we have already created a cross-platform Xamarin.Forms app and a sample test of it with Xamarin.UITest in the previous blog, it’s very easy to take the project code to the macOS machine.

Select Android and iOS in the Targets section, and click the Install and Update (if any updates) button.Ĭreating a New Project on Visual Studio for MacĪfter the installation is completed, we will see a dialogue box with the options to open or create a new project. We can go to and download Visual Studio for Mac.Īfter downloading and installing the Visual Studio for Mac development environment, we will be prompted with options for installation. Let’s first set up the macOS environment by installing Visual Studio for Mac.

In the first blog of our Xamarin.UITest 101 series, we have covered how to set up the Xamarin development environment with Visual Studio on Windows 10, today we will set up a development environment for Apple’s macOS and go through running Xamarin.UITest tests on Android and iOS platforms.
