I have just installed Xcode 12.2 on my Mac Mini build machine. I am running in to the following errors when running unit tests on a simulator:

Code Block The version of the CoreSimulator framework installed on this Mac is out-of-date and not supported by this version of Xcode

Code Block CoreSimulator is out of date. Current version (732.17.0) is older than build version (732.18.0).

How can I update the version of CoreSimulator running on my Mac?

xcode updates your simulators when it is opened for the first time. did/have you opened the new version and were you prompted to "install additional components?" if so, click "install" let it install, then try rerunning your tests

I have faced this issue while trying Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile - a restart of both Xcode & Android Studio helped.
