The importance of automated unit tests and continuous integration is a well known fact, but in mobile applications unit tests just aren't enough. This presentation shows the importance of UI tests on iOS applications, and demonstrates how to build complex automated UI tests using the modern frameworks, focusing with Apple's UIAutomation framework and Gorilla Logic's FoneMonkey framework.

43. Adding touch events #import "FoneMonkeyAPI.h" #import "MyView+FoneMonkey.h" @implementation MyView (FoneMonkey) - (NSString*) monkeyID { return self.myViewId ? self.myViewId : [super monkeyID]; } - (void) handleMonkeyTouchEvent:(NSSet*)touches withEvent:(UIEvent*)event { UITouch* touch = [touches anyObject]; if (touch.tapCount == 2) { [FoneMonkeyAPI record:self command:@"DoubleTouch" args:nil]; } else { [super handleMonkeyTouchEvent:touches withEvent:event]; } } @end

44. Adding control events - (UIControlEvents)monkeyEventsToHandle { return UIControlEventEditingDidEnd; } - (void) handleMonkeyEventFromSender:(id)sender forEvent:(UIEvent*)event { if (!self.editing && self.text != nil) { [FoneMonkeyAPI record:self command:FMCommandInputText args:[NSArray arrayWithObject:[self.text copy]]]; } else { [FoneMonkeyAPI continueRecording]; } }

45. Extending playback - (void) playbackMonkeyEvent:(FMCommandEvent*)event { if (event.command isEqualToString:@"Drag") { [self performDrag]; } else { [super playBackMonkeyEvent:event]; } }
