How to programmatically tap the "Cancel" button of a UISearchBar?

[dlo]

Hi all. First of all, thanks for your hard work on KIF. This library has been a godsend. :P

I'm trying to programmatically tap the "Cancel" button of a UISearchBar. I've tried cycling through its subviews to no avail, and hardcoding a point to tap just seems wrong. Is there a suggested / correct way to do this? Thanks!

If you tap view with accessibility label "Cancel" it works?

Unfortunately, that does not work.

1. what are you doing to see the error like XCTest? I get the KIF errors (like that) only in terminal...

hmm

I get them in the terminal too, but figured it'd be easier to understand what I'm seeing with this output.

[danielgomezrico]

but I don't get the errors in xcode, just in terminal, how can I enable that?

Not totally sure what your setup is...for me they show up automatically.

I'm using swift so maybe is because of that:

extension XCTestCase {

    var tester: KIFUITestActor { return tester() }

    func tester(_ file : String = __FILE__, _ line : Int = __LINE__) -> KIFUITestActor {
        return KIFUITestActor(inFile: file, atLine: line, delegate: self)
    }

    func system(_ file : String = __FILE__, _ line : Int = __LINE__) -> KIFSystemTestActor {
        return KIFSystemTestActor(inFile: file, atLine: line, delegate: self)
    }

}

It shows the error in tester(_ file...) -> KIFUITestActor return

Can you turn on the Accessibility Inspector in the simulator and see what the Cancel button's label is?

Sorry, I lost code access to that repo, but thanks for answering back then. :)
