Hello,

I'm trying to set the language and the region of my UI Testing target, and unfortunately it doesn't seem to work.

I've tried both ways, first:

Product | Scheme | Edit Scheme
Run | Options
- Application Language: French
- Application Region: France
Test | Arguments
Use the Run action's arguments and environment variables: Checked

And I try this other way:

Product | Scheme | Edit Scheme
Test | Arguments
- Use the Run action's arguments and environment variables: Unchecked
- Arguments passed at launch:
  - ```
  -AppleLanguages (French)
```
- ```
-AppleLocale fr_FR
```

Each way resulting in the UI Testing still happening in English. Moreover, when I hit the record button, the recording runs correctly in French...

So if I do something wrong, I would be happy to know!

Thanks in advance!

Is not via XCODE?

XCODE->Product->Scheme->Edit Scheme->Run (left menu)->Options (Tab)->Application Language = "English" (I could setup to "Portuguese (Brazil)", but I intend to use the language English.

XCODE->Product->Scheme->Edit Scheme->Run (left menu)->Options (Tab)->Application Region = "Brazil" (here I intend to use Brazillian's regional settings -> 1.200,43)

You can add arguments when you run the UITest Application

Like this:

XCUIApplication().launchArguments += [“-AppleLanguages”, “(fr)”]

XCUIApplication().launchArguments += [“-AppleLocale”, “fr_FR”]

XCUIApplication().launch()
