The app is built with DIRECTORY_SERVICE_LINK set to the test directory's
short address (sed in the workflow). The smoke test types "ci seed", taps
"Search in Directory", accepts the first-search consent alert with "Search",
and expects the Directory results with #ci_group (Join group) and
#ci_channel (Join channel), retrying once if the search fails.
The steps now use scripts/ci/ios-sim/ui, which wraps AXe (tap by label or
value, type, wait, screenshot, compact accessibility tree) for scripts and
for an agent on the runner. Later steps get SIM_UDID and UI_OUT.
This run tests: the onboarding and typing steps on the new helper, the
consent alert, and the directory results in the app.
A new backend job builds simplex-chat and simplex-directory-service with the
server-capable configuration. The app job starts a chat relay and a directory
on the preset servers, registers and approves a group and a channel from a CLI
peer, and checks that a service request for "ci seed" finds both, before the
app is built. The app still uses the production directory link; the smoke
test is unchanged.
The cabal store cache now uses setup-haskell's store path, with a key prefix
per job, so rebuilds after Haskell changes reuse built dependencies.
This run tests: backend build, relay and directory start, registration and
approval over the preset servers, the service request, and that M2 still
passes.
Run 38448094338 reached the chat list and typed into the search field, which showed "Ci smoke" and the Search in Directory row, but the check looked for "ci smoke": the keyboard capitalizes the first letter. SwiftUI text fields expose no accessibility label, only the placeholder as the value of an empty field, so the fields are now tapped by value.
This run tests the smoke test end to end, with the core library restored from cache.
Adds the ios-sim workflow, triggered only by pushes to f/ci-ios-sim and by workflow_dispatch.
The core job builds lib:simplex-chat with cabal using the flake's iOS settings (swift JSON, client library, static roll-up archive, threaded RTS, CommonCrypto), packages it as the Hydra zip, and patches it for the simulator with scripts/ios/prepare.sh and mac2ios. The app job builds "SimpleX (iOS)" for the arm64 simulator against it and drives onboarding, the chat list and the search field with AXe, saving screenshots and accessibility trees.
This first run tests the whole pipeline, mainly whether the core library builds and links.
