Xcode Build Server failed. The devices configured for testing were not found


Found a solution provided by user @juce on github. Link to original response in Apple Developer Forum

Here' is a link to github post explained a details by @juke:

How to apply. Download or copy this script, and path existing file like this:

[sudo] cd /Library/Developer/XcodeServer/CurrentXcodeSymlink/Contents/Developer/usr/share/xcs/xcsd/classes    patch deviceClass.js /path/to/xcs-tweaks/xcs-devices-patch.diff

Then restart the simulator and possibly restart your machine (that was my case). Then check if it's working by:sudo xcrun xcscontrol --list-simulators

Big thanks @juke whoever you are :)


My problem with this was that I had set up the bot on an earlier version of Xcode (with only 11.2 simulators installed).

I upgraded the version of Xcode on the machine I use to run bots, which only had 11.4 simulators installed. Changing the simulators to these latest versions fixed it.
