I'm having troubles while running XCUITests on iPhone and paired apple watch (simulators) simultaneously using terminal. I can do it by hitting "test button" for each of my uitests
targets separately, it works just fine, but I need to do it
1 - from command line
2 - simultaneously
However, I am able to run uitests from command line for the same iPhone simulator (that is paired with apple watch simulator) using
xcodebuild -workspace MyApp.xcworkspace -scheme 'MyApp' -destination 'name=iPhone 11' test
It works as expected- launches simulator and run tests The problem is: When I do the same for paired apple watch (it doesn't matter separately or simultaneously with this iPhone) tests for apple watch doesn't launch at all
xcodebuild -workspace MyApp.xcworkspace -scheme 'MyApp WatchKit App' -destination 'name=iPhone 11' test
Terminal says that:
The requested device could not be found because no available devices matched the request.
Available destinations for the "WatchTesterApp WatchKit App" scheme:
{ platform:iOS Simulator, id:2B6CA009-BF6B-4437-9E80-18D53EB003BA, OS:14.5, name:iPhone 11 }

Currently, I am struggling with the following issue and it's kind of big blocker for our project.
We need to run ui tests for apple watch test target in the iOS App with Watch App using terminal and we receive such error, which is quite frustrating
Command I use:
xcodebuild test -workspace WatchTesterApp.xcworkspace -scheme 'Watch' -destination 'id=F35DCC98-0F7D-460E-A49F-A446FD5FB4BE'
xcodebuild: error: Unable to find a destination matching the provided destination specifier:
{ id:F35DCC98-0F7D-460E-A49F-A446FD5FB4BE }
The requested device could not be found because no available devices matched the request.
Available destinations for the "Watch" scheme:
{ platform:iOS Simulator, id:F35DCC98-0F7D-460E-A49F-A446FD5FB4BE, OS:14.5, name:iPhone 12 Pro }
Ineligible destinations for the "Watch" scheme:
{ platform:iOS, id:dvtdevice-DVTiPhonePlaceholder-iphoneos:placeholder, name:Any iOS Device }
{ platform:watchOS, id:dvtdevice-DVTiOSDevicePlaceholder-watchos:placeholder, name:Any watchOS Device }
Destination is iPhone's simulator id which is paired with apple watch
Has anyone faced such issue?
Hi, guys
I am writing UI tests for Apple Watch using XCTest and I need to interact with Apple Watch Home Screen and with elements on it. I know that "com.apple.springboard" could be used to interact with iPhone's Home Screen, what about Apple Watch?
Thank you!
I am just looking for the native watchOS applications bundle ids.
For example:
for iPhone: "com.apple.news" and what is for Watch: ???
I tried "com.apple.news.watchkitapp" which doesn't work. Maybe someone know how to help me?
Hi,
Currently I'm working on Apple Watch ui testing using XCTest and I need to interact with Apple Watch's Home screen in order to perform different actions with complications. As I know from my iOS experience, Home Screen can be by using bundle id "com.apple.springboard". I need something similar but for watchOS.
Hi
I am working on the iPhone + Apple Watch development and I am facing this issue a few days in a row.
I know how to fix it - unpair and then pair Apple Watch again, but it is not a solution at all.
(Yes, I'm certain that my watch is paired)
Maybe someone knows how to fix it?
Hi guys,
I just want to make my pod available only for one build configuration in my project.
I assume I need to do this in the Podfile.
Is there a way to do so?
Thanks
I am struggling with the new issue (again) related to the UITesting on Apple Watch. Currently, I'm looking into the opportunity to deploy .app/.ipa file of UITests-Runner directly on Watch. So, I'm not taking about running tests (for which I can easily use XCODEBUILD) or deploying .app/.ipa file of my application itself on Apple Watch (which could be achieved via iOS-deploy), my current problem is to deploy tests runner into real Apple Watch. Any suggestions, thoughts here? Will appreciate any help.
Hi everyone,
I have questions about UITesting in Apple Watch once again.
Just discovered that apparently there is no API to press Side Button in XCUITest framework, is this correct?
If yes, if there is another way to show "dock" menu or "application stack" on the Apple Watch?
Thank for your help and cheers
Hi guys,
Basically, my question - Is there a way to tap on Apple Watch's complication in XCUITest?
Hey everyone,
I need a bundle id of 'Clock' app on Apple Watch to use during test writing using XCUITest.
Would appreciate any direct answers or suggestions how to get bundle id from Apple Watch.
Cheers :)
Hi guys,
Recently I updated my devices to the newest version and with this update I am having troubles to run xcodebuild commands when destination is my Apple Watch.
Have anyone experienced such problems? let me know
Hi
Since update to watchOS 9.1 I am having issues using xcodebuild commands on my real Apple Watch, It is just not visible, however, it is always visible from Xcode UI.
Sometimes, when I restart my iPhone it picks up the Apple Watch destination - it happens in rare cases, mostly I see this result.
xcodebuild -workspace MyApp.xcworkspace -scheme 'MyApp WatchKit App' -destination 'platform=watchOS,id=Watch's ID'
(null) needs to connect to determine its availability.
Check the connection between the device and its companion iPhone, and the connection between the iPhone and Xcode.
Both devices may also need to be restarted and unlocked.```
I need to run my tests bundle independently from Xcode. Previously, I used to deploy it and run as regular iOS application, it would execute test cases and display 'Automation running' label. I needed to execute tests some time after deploy and in different time of the day, so it is a problem for my team right now. So, UI Tests Runner app file does not launch and 'Automation Running' label is not displayed, is there any possible ways to run tests as it was or other ways to run tests not from Xcode.
Is it planned to add ability to run Xcode test bundles using devicectl tool? If it is possible now how to achieve it?
Is there any other ways to run tests bundle .app file using command line?
