iOS Testing Automation FAQs

Question 1

What is the difference between expo-mcp and xc-mcp in this skill?

Accepted Answer

expo-mcp handles React Native-specific actions like finding elements by testID and capturing screenshots within the app, while xc-mcp manages the iOS simulator environment, including booting devices, installing .app bundles, and launching processes.

Question 2

Does this skill require specific code changes in my app?

Accepted Answer

Yes, for effective autonomous testing, all interactive elements in your React Native application should have unique testID props so the AI can reliably locate and interact with them.

Question 3

Do I need to have Metro running to use this skill?

Accepted Answer

Yes, autonomous testing via expo-mcp requires the Metro bundler to be active and started with the EXPO_UNSTABLE_MCP_SERVER=1 environment variable enabled.

Question 4

Which iOS simulators are supported?

Accepted Answer

Any simulator configured in your Xcode environment can be used, including various generations of iPhone SE, standard iPhones, and Pro Max models for responsive design testing.
