# Feature Request: Add officially supported steps that enable users to build their UI Test and deploy their UI tests to Xamarin Test Cloud when their app is written in Xcode and the UI Tests are written in C#/Xamarin.UITest

Below is the Workflow that I put together with great help from @godrei and @bradumbaugh!

Scripts

Build UITest

#!/bin/bash
# fail if any commands fails
set -e
# debug log
set -x

# write your script here
SOLUTION_FILE=`find . -name YOUR_UITEST_SOLUTION_FILENAME.sln`

"/Applications/Xamarin Studio.app/Contents/MacOS/mdtool" "build" $SOLUTION_FILE "-c:Debug" "-p:YOUR_UITEST_PROJECT_NAME"

envman add --key ASSEMBLY_DIR --value "/Users/vagrant/git/FOLDER_PATH_TO_YOUR_UITEST_PROJECT/bin/Debug"

Submit to XTC

#!/bin/bash
# fail if any commands fails
set -e
# debug log
set -x

# write your script here
MONO="/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/Current/Commands/mono" 
TEST_CLOUD=`find . -name test-cloud.exe`
UITestDll=`find . -name Xamarin.UITest.dll`

cp -f $UITestDll $ASSEMBLY_DIR

$MONO $TEST_CLOUD submit $BITRISE_IPA_PATH $TestCloudAPIKey --series "master" --locale "en_US" --user $TestCloudUserName --assembly-dir $ASSEMBLY_DIR --devices $TestCloudDeviceKey --async-json

Edit: Added step inside of "Submit to XTC’ to copy Xamarin.UITest.dll into the Assembly Directory

Update: I added the following code to the “Submit to XTC” step, above, to ensure that the Xamarin.UITest.dll is in the Assembly Directory.

UITestDll=`find . -name Xamarin.UITest.dll`

cp -f $UITestDll $ASSEMBLY_DIR
