Code signing failed - Simulator only

Soo-hongSuh

Using the same provisioning profile, I can run the same set of tests on a device and on the test cloud.
But I get the error below running the same tests on a simulator.
The app deploys and runs fine on the simulator. I am thinking the code signing identity is incorrect but not sure why this would be just on the simulator.

IIRC when running on a simulator you don't need code signing when setting up your IApp, so you can just remove that part of the setup code on a simulator.

Soo-hongSuh

Thanks for your reply Jim,

I am using Xamarin.UITest version 2.0.0.1526-dev and I had not needed to specify code signing for both device and simulator. So this is my current setup that had worked for me.

app = ConfigureApp
    .iOS
    .StartApp ();

So yeah, not sure how it's attempting to code sign.

YarmolyukRuslan

I have identical problem. Any ideas?

Soo-hongSuh

@YarmolyukRuslan, in my case, the app has today widget attached and it seems to be failing trying to code sign the widget. Do you have extensions attached to your app?

To make sure, I am going to try detaching the today widget and see if code signing works with the app. Not sure why code signing is needed in the first place to run tests in the simulator.

Were you able to run tests on physical devices?

OlivierMatis

I have the same kind of problem since XCode 8.0. Anyone found a solution?

Dids

Same issue, anyone found a workaround/fix?

Soo-hongSuh

@OlivierMatis @Dids, do you have an iOS extension projects attached to the solution? In my case, I have a today extension project in the solution and unloading the project from the solution allowed me to run the tests.

I have to test the extension separately anyway so this is not a big deal but I have to reattach the project to the solution before I publish the app.

Dids

@Soo-hongSuh I do have a watch app/watch app extension, which does indeed seem to be the root cause of this. Submitted a bug about this a couple of days ago, and at least the Xamarin team is now aware of it.

NealCuliner

@Dids do you have a bugzilla reference? We have a Safari Extension and have the same issue. Any help is appreciated:

Dids

@NealCuliner Yes and no. My specific ticket was closed, but they have an internal one open about it. Here's the closed one: https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=48276

OlivierMatis

Thanks @Soo-hongSuh, it is indeed the case ! It works now I removed the extension project and tests are running.

Cheers

Olivier

Glenn.Wilson

We are aware of this issue. I do not have an ETA for a resolution and suggest the work around described above (unload the extension project).

i_NateCook

@Glenn.Wilson the workaround of unloading the extension project is causing another bug for us, for ARMv7 architectures specifically. See the following bugzilla: https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=51226

Dids

Anyone have anything new on this? Still seeing it, and unfortunately unloading a project isn't possible from the command line, so I'm dead in water with running my tests in a CI.

Lewis_t

@Glenn.Wilson Is there any update on this? The workaround of unloading the project does work for us in development scenarios but it is a poor solution as i cannot include any ui automation in ci builds.
