BrowserStack App Automate (XCUI)
Run your XCUI tests on BrowserStack App Automate. This step allows you to send test IPA's to the BrowserStack dashboard and run your test on it.
Prerequisites
Before running the BrowserStack App Automate (XCUI) step, you must complete certain prerequisites, as detailed in the table below:
| Prerequisite Workflow Step | Description |
|---|---|
| Xcodebuild for Testing | After the Xcodebuild for Testing step runs, the test IPA paths ($AC_TEST_IPA_PATH and $AC_UITESTS_RUNNER_PATH) will be created automatically. So that the BrowserStack component depends on these paths. |
In the build step, if there is no Xcodebuild Build for Testing step before BrowserStack, BrowserStack will throw an error and break the pipeline because it cannot find the paths that your step depends on.
Input Variables
The output(s) resulting from the operation of this component are as follows:
Please do not use sensitive variables such as Username, Password, API Key, or Personal Access Key directly within the step.

$AC_TEST_IPA_PATH | Full path of the IPA file. This path will automatically generate in Xcodebuild for Testing step. | Required |
$AC_UITESTS_RUNNER_PATH | Full path of the *-Runner.app. This path will automatically generate in Xcodebuild for Testing step. | Required |
$AC_BROWSERSTACK_PAYLOAD | $AC_BROWSERSTACK_APP_URL and $AC_BROWSERSTACK_TEST_URL will be auto generated. Please check the documentation for more details about the payload. | Optional |
