Apple Developer: About Unit Testing

Logic Tests

  1. Apple Developer: Setting Up Unit-Testing in a Project
  2. Download convert OCUnit command line output to JUnit XML: OCUnit2JUnit and put it in your project
  3. Setup Freestyle project in Jenkins
  4. Add Execute shell step:
    • chmod +x ./pathtoscript/ocunit2junit.rb
    • xcodebuild -target myTarget -configuration myConfig -sdk iphonesimulator clean build | ./pathtoscript/ocunit2junit.rb
  5. Add post build action Publish JUnit Test Results with location:
    • test-reports/*.xml

Application Tests

  1. Apple Developer: Setting Up Unit-Testing in a Project
  2. Download the patched RunPlatformUnitTests script and put in your project
  3. Open the Build Phases - Run Script setting and change script path to "${PROJECT_DIR}/pathtoscript/RunPlatformUnitTests"
    • Download convert OCUnit command line output to JUnit XML: OCUnit2JUnit and put it in your project
    • Setup Freestyle project in Jenkins
    • Add Execute shell step:
      • chmod +x ./pathtoscript/ocunit2junit.rb
      • xcodebuild -target myTarget -configuration myConfig -sdk iphonesimulator TEST_AFTER_BUILD=YES clean build | ./pathtoscript/ocunit2junit.rb

    Server-driven UI (SDUI): Meet Zalandos AppCraft and AirBnB Lona

    A short WTF: Joe Birch:  SERVER DRIVEN UI, PART 1: THE CONCEPT Zalando seems to follow the SDUI principle as well - defining a common design language and construct the screens on the backend while displaying them natively on the clients. They even go one step further; they implemented a mighty toolset to enable non-technical stakeholders to define their own native app screens Compass: Web tooling to create screens and bind data Beetroot: Backend service that combines the screen layout definition with the data Lapis/Golem: iOS/Android UI render engines Crazy cool! Good job, guys (when you do an open-source release?) To even move faster a Flutter based UI render engine implementation was great!

    Dark Theme (Dark Mode) in Android WebViews, WKWebViews and CSS

    So your apps just implemented a shiny new dark theme and it’s looking 👌 There are lots of benefits to having a dark theme in your application, and having it consistent throughout your application allows for a great user experience. But what happens when the the user runs into a WebView in your app? Support: if (WebViewFeature.isFeatureSupported(WebViewFeature.FORCE_DARK)) { ... } Set: WebSettingsCompat.setForceDark(webView.settings, WebSettingsCompat.FORCE_DARK_ON) Current setting: val forceDarkMode = WebSettingsCompat.getForceDark(webView.settings) Joe Birch Assuming your question is asking how to change the colors of the HTML content you are displaying in a WKWebView based on whether light or dark mode is in effect, there is nothing you do in your app's code. All changes need to be in the CSS being used by your HTML content. CSS dark mode via :root variables, explicit colors and @media query: :root {     color-scheme: light dark;         --h1-color: #333;

    KSCrash

    Another crash reporter? Why? Because all existing solutions fall short. PLCrashReporter comes very close, but not quite: It can't handle stack overflow crashes. It doesn't fill in all fields for its Apple crash reports. It can't symbolicate on the device. It only records enough information for an Apple crash report, though there is plenty of extra useful information to be gathered! As well, each crash reporter service, though most of them use PLCrashReporter at the core, has its own format and API. KSCrash is superior for the following reasons: It catches ALL crashes. Its pluggable server reporting architecture makes it easy to adapt to any API service (it already supports Hockey and Quincy and sending via email, with more to come!). It supports symbolicating on the device. It records more information about the system and crash than any other crash reporter. It is the only crash reporter capable of creating a 100% complete Apple crash report (including thre
