Update to @ravisekahrp's answer for newer Swift:

extension XCUIElement {
    func isVisible() -> Bool {
        if !self.exists || !self.isHittable || self.frame.isEmpty {
            return false
        }

        return XCUIApplication().windows.element(boundBy: 0).frame.contains(self.frame)
    }
}

extension XCTestCase {
    func scrollToElement(_ element: XCUIElement) {
        while !element.isVisible() {
            let app = XCUIApplication()
            let startCoord = app.tables.element.coordinate(withNormalizedOffset: CGVector(dx: 0.5, dy: 0.5))
            let endCoord = startCoord.withOffset(CGVector(dx: 0.0, dy: -262))
            startCoord.press(forDuration: 0.01, thenDragTo: endCoord)
        }
    }
}
