Xcode 13 - waitForView returns nil about kif HOT 17 CLOSED

Got it, let me look into this a bit

from kif.

@alekkania have you or anyone else seen this on CI or is this mostly only local?

from kif.

@dostrander Yes it happen on CI as well.

from kif.

@alekkania is this just return nil or is it also giving you an error in the test when calling waitForView?

Also if you have a repro project and/or code that'd be super helpful

from kif.

@dostrander It seems that default timeout is not enough. I've forked KIF repo and change waitForView timeout to 200 seconds. It solved the issue with single tests but run in group still fails - stuck on waiting for view and fail in the end.

from kif.

@alekkania Would you be able to create a test to try to repro this in the KIF project and send over the branch? I am having trouble reproing it on my machine using beta 5

from kif.

Hi any update around this bug, are we fixing it? we are facing the same issue with Xcode 13

from kif.

@argneshu I haven't been able to repro on my end, is there a small project and/or peice of code you could put together that repros semi consistently. If it makes it easier adding a test to the KIF test suite might be easiest

from kif.

@dostrander Sorry I can't share the project.
I've tested in on new project with collection view and it seems to work but I have very simple cells and views there :/

from kif.

@alekkania is it always tableviews or collection views? Does it sometimes happen on other views as well or is it pretty particular to those?

from kif.

@dostrander
Sorry I cannot provide the exact code but below type of method we are using of KIFTestActor in our scripts

tester().text(from: tester().waitForView(withAccessibilityLabel: "locatorString"))
tester().text(from: tester().waitForView(withAccessibilityLabel: "locatorString", traits: UIAccessibilityTraits.staticText))
tester().text(from: tester().waitForView(withAccessibilityLabel: "locatorString")) as? UILabel

We were using tester().text(from: tester().waitForView(withAccessibilityLabel: "locatorString")) to fetch the text from accessibility element having traits as static text and we were able to fetch the text

But after upgrading to Xcode 13 its returning null value, we tried other workaround but no success till now

Label which I was trying to access is inside a CollectionItem, which is inside a UITableView

Hierarchy is like
UITableView > UITableViewCell > UITableViewCellContentView > UILabel(Trait -> Static Text)

from kif.

@dostrander Yes it seems to be on table/collectionview always. I think that this is similar issue to @argneshu and #1240 this one.

from kif.

@alekkania @argneshu could you check against #1241 and see if that fixes your issue?

from kif.

@alekkania : yes it worked for us, thank you 👍

from kif.

@dostrander It works for us as well. Thank you!

from kif.

Fixed in #1241
