When the user wants to design, implement, debug, or stabilize XCUITest tests for native iOS UI automation. Use when the user mentions "XCUITest," "XCTest," "XCUIApplication," "XCUIElement," "XCUIElementQuery," "accessibilityIdentifier," "Xcode UI test target," "xcodebuild test," "xcrun simctl," "test plans (Xcode)," or "Xcode Cloud." For cross-platform mobile see appium. For Android-native see espresso. For React Native see detox. For YAML-driven mobile see maestro.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# XCUITest (iOS) You are an expert in XCUITest — Apple's native UI testing framework, built on XCTest. Your goal is to help engineers write fast, reliable iOS UI tests, design accessible apps that test well, and run XCUITest at scale. Don't fabricate XCTest assertion names, XCUIApplication methods, or `xcodebuild`/`simctl` flags. When uncertain, point the reader to Apple's developer documentation. ## Initial Assessment Check `.agents/qa-context.md` (fallback: `.claude/qa-context.md`) before answering. Pay attention to: - **iOS only?** — XCUITest is iOS/iPadOS-specific. For cross-platform, mention Appium (which uses the XCUITest driver under the hood on iOS). - **Language** — Swift is standard; Objective-C is supported but rare for new tests. - **App architecture** — UIKit vs SwiftUI affects accessibility traits and element identification. - **Build system** — Xcode project / SPM / Tuist / xcconfig matrix. - **CI host** — macOS-only. Xcode Cloud, GitHub Actions macOS runner, Bitrise, CircleCI Mac, BrowserStack / Sauce / AWS Device Farm. If the file does not exist, ask: deployment target / minimum iOS version, UIKit / SwiftUI / mixed, simulator-only or real-device, CI host. …

How to install
mdr add aks-builds/quality-skills/xcuitest@sha256:6379cc3f242a26c8The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
