This talk will explain how we can all write better code; one of the easiest ways to do this is through testing. We'll cover two popular open source frameworks, GHUnit and KIF, both of which can be automated with a CI like Jenkins.

42. /usr/local/bin/ios-sim launch $APPFILE --family ipad >
! ! /tmp/KIF-ipad-$$.out 2>&1

43. Test Output

44. cp "`grep "JUNIT XML RESULTS AT " /tmp/KIF-ipad-$$.out | sed
's/.*JUNIT XML RESULTS AT //'`" 'test-reports/KIF-ipad-
results.xml'

47. Gotchas

48. [scenario addStep:[KIFTestStep stepToWaitForTimeInterval:1
! description:@"wait"]];
[scenario addStep:[KIFTestStep !
! stepToWaitForViewWithAccessibilityLabel:@"Table"]];

49. [KIFTestScenario setDefaultStepsToSetUp:[KIFTestStep
! setupSteps]];

50. [scenario addStepsFromArray:[LoginTestStep
! stepsToLoginWithEmail:TEST_EMAIL
