ios-sim

Supports Node 6 and greater, and Xcode 9.4 and greater -- since version 8.x.

The ios-sim tool is a command-line utility that launches an iOS application on the iOS Simulator. This allows for niceties such as automated testing without having to open Xcode.

Features

• Choose the device family to simulate, i.e. iPhone or iPad. Run using showdevicetypes option to see available device types, and pass it in as the devicetypeid parameter.

See the --help option for more info.
