This is a read from the blog post by Julian James. iOS continuous integration builds can be setup with HockeyApp, OSX Mavericks, Server and XCode. These are installed first and Xcode remote repositories point to source control. BotRuns are stored in their own folder. Project scheme can be edited to include pre-action and post-action schemes.Bots can be specified with a schedule and a target. OCMock and OCHamcrest can be used for unit-testing. Archive post-action completion signals the availability of the latest build. Instruments can then be run with Javascript file to test the UI. Then when the bot is run, it could show the number of tests passed.
Javascript for UI automation can make use of the iOS UI automation library reference. This has an object model for all the UI elements and document navigation. Workflows are automated using the different methods on these objects and UIANavigationBar. The target is obtained with UIATarget, the application is referred to with UIAApplication, pages are available via UIAPageIndicator etc. A variety of controls are available via UIAButton, UIAElement, UIAPicker, UIAPickerWheel, UIAPopover, UIASearchBar, UIASecureTextField, UIATabBar, and UIAWebView. Organzation of UI elements can be used with UIATableCell, UIATableGroup and UIATableView to access the individual cells. UIATabGroup allows navigation between tabs.
