Sorry, we need to better document this, but the ability to set env variables is not available for espresso/xcuitests. 🙏
@alexplischke based on the above foreach
loop, I still think there could be a backend change that would allow at least iOS env settings to be passed (as xcodebuild allows that locally). For the immediate term, I unfortunately might go with your suggestion, but on the long run this should be fixed in some way.
@renaud-vmg
Is this for Real or Virtual devices? We are working on supporting this for virtual as we speak. Real devices is harder due to the technology we use
Current behavior
The current behaviour of
--env SOME=THING
appears to not set environment variables "in" the device when launching a test (as is supported by xcodebuild-run tests). I can see USER, XPC_FLAGS, XPC_SERVICE_NAME and others, but additional--env
-provided values seems to be broken.Desired behavior
The expected behaviour is that using saucectl's
--env SOME=THING
cli option would set environment variables on the target as is being done by xcodebuild-driven testséConfig to reproduce
Run any iOS xcuiapplication-based tests that print out the whole environment. Example code to do that in a setup method:
