The UI tests are crashing because the NSFaceIDUsageDescription key hasn't been specified in the project's Info.plist (also it needs to be handled in the UI tests i.e. accepting the authorisation dialog).

I only realised this when writing UI tests for TABTestKit - I thought it may have something to do with the bridging header, but upon digging deeper into the stack trace, I noticed the text __CRASHING_DUE_TO_PRIVACY_VIOLATION__ and then it hit me - I forgot to include the NSFaceIDUsageDescription key! I checked this demo project and noticed it's missing it as well, so the UI tests will crash unless its fixed.

Surprisingly the tests pass in the end if you leave it for a minute: tearDown takes about 60 seconds and then the tests pass 🤔 Seems like a bug in Xcode, this shouldn't be happening!

Any idea if this is possible for macOS?

Thanks

i'm getting the error biometrics unavailable when i'm using the iphone 8 simulator.

In Xcode 10.1, XCUI can't find the cancel button when failing biometric authentication.

I've checked in Xcode 10.2 beta and it's working fine, plus there's a workaround where you can press the home button (even on an iPhone X simulator) to dismiss the prompt:

XCUIDevice.shared.press(.home)
