Swift2 UI Test - Wait for Element to Appear

Question

I want to have a test pause and wait for an element to appear on screen before proceeding.

I don\'t see a good way to create an expectation for this and wait using

Answer 1

For Xcode 8.3 and later you can wait for expectation with a new class - XCTWaiter, an example test looks like this:

func testExample() {
  let element = // ...
  let predicate = NSPredicate(format: "exists == true")
  let expectation = XCTNSPredicateExpectation(predicate: predicate, object: element)

  let result = XCTWaiter().wait(for: [expectation], timeout: 1)
  XCTAssertEqual(.completed, result)
}
