Delay/Wait in a test case of Xcode UI testing
Additionally, you can just sleep:
sleep(10)Since the UITests run in another process, this works. I don’t know how advisable it is, but it works.
Asynchronous UI Testing was introduced in Xcode 7 Beta 4. To wait for a label with the text "Hello, world!" to appear you can do the following:
let app = XCUIApplication()app.launch()let label = app.staticTexts["Hello, world!"]let exists = NSPredicate(format: "exists == 1")expectationForPredicate(exists, evaluatedWithObject: label, handler: nil)waitForExpectationsWithTimeout(5, handler: nil)More details about UI Testing can be found on my blog.
iOS 11 / Xcode 9
<#yourElement#>.waitForExistence(timeout: 5)This is a great replacement for all the custom implementations on this site!
