What happen when you run below command?

Hi @KazuCocoa,

Thanks for your response.

I am getting the below error :

Testing failed:
WebDriverAgentRunner:
WebDriverAgentRunner-Runner.app (1862) encountered an error (Failed to create a bundle instance representing '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/appium/node_modules/appium-webdriveragent/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/WebDriverAgentRunner-Runner.app/PlugIns/WebDriverAgentRunner.xctest'. Check that the bundle exists on disk.)

** TEST EXECUTE FAILED **

I can confirm the bundle does exist in the said location.

Digitals-Mac-mini:appium-webdriveragent digitalautomation$ cd build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/WebDriverAgentRunner-Runner.app/PlugIns/
Digitals-Mac-mini:PlugIns digitalautomation$ ls
WebDriverAgentRunner.xctest
Digitals-Mac-mini:PlugIns digitalautomation$

Also tried to build and test the WebDriverAgent.xcodeproj in Xcode but no luck. Getting the same error.

Thanks.

I guess your command failed to create proper files because of permission issue.
We recommend not to install appium as sudo, but I guess yours were installed as sudo. (since your module was in /usr/local/lib/node_modules/appium)

Make sure you have not installed Node or Appium with sudo, otherwise you'll run into problems).

Could you fix the permission for the appium directory?

Hi @KazuCocoa , Thanks for your response.

I used the below command to install appium:
npm install -g appium
For installing some of the dependencies (Ex: ios-deploy , ideviceinstaller) i used homebrew commands.

It seems you built npm (node) environment as root permission. So, npm install -g appium was also installed as root.
Common solutions are building node env without root or you can also change your local permission in /usr/local/lib/node_modules/appium. You can google both ways.

Hi @KazuCocoa ,

I have uninstalled appium and node from my system.
Then installed node : brew install node

Now, when I am trying to install appium, I am getting the below error:

npm install -g appium

Do you know what causes this NOENT error?

Thanks

Uninstalled node that was installed using brew and reinstalled using NodeJs installer. This error is resolved.
However, I am still getting the error when trying to build the test app:

Testing failed:
WebDriverAgentRunner:
