In iOS Settings, Advanced tab

Put a tick in Use Native Instruments Library

Put a tick in Instruments Launch Timeout, add 900000 ms

Press Launch btn in Appium GUI app-after clicking the launch button, it becomes the stop button

Press Inspector btn in Appium GUI app-the magnifying glass icon in the image above. Click on it and automatically pull up the application to be tested in the simulator. At the same time, the following screen appears for positioning elements.

According to the above steps, after the configuration is complete, you can open the inspector interface, which is the first step in appium testing!

Through inspector, you can view the distribution of elements on different pages, and locate and find elements.

With small help:

1. The directory of the simulator is here:

/ Users/ the user name you are currently logged in / Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/

Your App is here by XCode Build:

/ Users/ the user name you are currently logged in / Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/YOURPROJECTNAME_SOMETHINGSOMETHING/Build/Products

2. How to display all file directories under mac (hide folders)

Copy or enter the following command (case sensitive) in Terminal:

"defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles YES"

After the configuration is completed, restart the Finder to take effect.
