Hypershard iOS

This is a step-by-step guide of using Hypershard for companies that are unable to use symbol table dumping on iOS.

Installation

  1. Clone Github repository using
    1. https - git clone https://github.com/dropbox/hypershard-ios.git
    2. SSH - git clone git@github.com:dropbox/hypershard-ios.git
    3. Github CLI - gh repo clone dropbox/hypershard-ios
  2. Install swift if you are not using macOS
    1. https://swift.org/download/#releases
  3. Open Terminal/cmd
  4. Change working directory to the path where you clone hypershard-ios
  5. Build hyper shard-ios with command swift build -c release
  6. It will build the binary into the .build folder
  7. The resulting binary will be placed in the .build/release/hypershard.

Running

  1. Open Terminal/cmd

  2. change the working directory to .build/release or add it to PATH

  3. To run hypershard make CLI invocation with the command:

hypershard TEST_TARGET_NAME ROOT_PATH

where

- `TEST_TARGET_NAME` - the name of the Xcode test target containing the UI tests
- `ROOT_PATH` - either a path where all the `XCUITest`s classes are stored, or the path of the Xcode project containing `TEST_TARGET_NAME`

for example based on Flank test project

./hypershard EarlGreyExample test_projects/ios/EarlGreyExample/EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests
  1. The output will be printed to console
{"path":"","phase":"XCUI test shard","env":{},"cmd":"","tests":["EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testThatThrows","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testBasicSelection","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testBasicSelectionAndAction","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testBasicSelectionAndAssert","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testBasicSelectionActionAssert","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testSelectionOnMultipleElements","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testCollectionMatchers","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testWithInRoot","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testWithCustomMatcher","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testTableCellOutOfScreen","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testCatchErrorOnFailure","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testCustomAction","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testWithCustomAssertion","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testWithCustomFailureHandler","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testLayout","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testWithCondition","EarlGreyExample.EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests.testWithGreyAssertions"]}
  1. If you would like to store the output to a file just add a path to the file with --path option

For example:

./hypershard EarlGreyExample test_projects/ios/EarlGreyExample/EarlGreyExampleSwiftTests --path results.json
