问题
I'm trying to set up our iOS XCUITests to run on AWS Device Farm, but it seems no matter how I build and upload them, the tests will not run. They execute and pass when run locally in XCode, but do not run on AWS Device Farm.
I've set up the absolute simplest app I can manage to try to isolate this issue. It consists of a single View with a single Label, and a UI Test which verifies that the label exists.
Here is the error that appears in AWS Device Farm's interface.
Digging into the log files reveals this (in the "Application Output" log file):

Which to me looks like the MyAppUITests-Runner.app application hasn't included a configuration file which allows it to target the correct application. So I suspect it's something to do with the process I am using to build and upload the application and its UI Tests.
The process I am using to generate the Application ipa file is:
- In Xcode, click Product > Archive
- Select the Archive in the Organizer window and click the Export button
- Select "Save for Ad Hoc Deployment" and click next
- Select "use local signing assets" for provisioning
- Select "Export one app for all compatible devices"
- "Include manifest for over-the-air installation" is UN-checked
- "Rebuild from bitcode" is checked
- Export the ipa to a folder on desktop
The process I use to generate the UITests ipa file is (following instructions from http://docs.aws.amazon.com/devicefarm/latest/developerguide/test-types-ios-xctest-ui.html):
- In Xcode, Select "Generic iOS Device" as the build target
- Click Product > Build For > Testing
- Open the XCode Derived Data folder for the project, go to Build > Intermediates > Debug-iphoneos. This contains 2 files: MyTestApp.app and MyTestAppUITests-Runner.app
- Create a new directory called "Payload" on desktop
- Copy the MyTestAppUITests-Runner.app file into the Payload directory
- Right click Payload and select "Compress 'Payload'"
- Rename the generated Payload.zip file to mytestapp-uitests.ipa
I have also tried including both MyTestApp.app and MyTestAppUITests-Runner.app into the mytestapp-uitests.ipa file, but this doesn't work either.
To run the tests in Device Farm:
- In my testing project, click "Create a new run"
- Select Android/iOS
- Upload the MyTestApp.ipa file generated earlier (from Exporting the Archive) and click Next
- Select "XCTest UI" from the list, and upload the mytestapp-uitests.ipa file
- Select device pool which consists of iPad Air 2, iPad Air, and iPad 2 all running iOS 9.2.1
- Leave Device State at default settings
- Click Start Run
Note that if I use the same application ipa file and run the built-in Fuzz tests, these work with no problems -- I can see the screenshots with my test app with its single label.
I can't see anything obvious which I'm missing. What do I need to do to make this work?

I work for the AWS Device Farm team. Your analysis quoted below is on the right path.
Which to me looks like the MyAppUITests-Runner.app application hasn't included a configuration file which allows it to target the correct application. So I suspect it's something to do with the process I am using to build and upload the application and its UI Tests.
We are currently fixing an issue where the tests are not picked up if the .xctestconfiguration file is missing from the .ipa.
A workaround for this issue until it is fixed to get you running is to run your tests locally which will generate .xctestconfiguration file under your .app/Plugins folder
Before packaging for upload to device farm just make sure that the xctestconfiguration file is present under the .app bundle
The Fuzz tests will work because it does not use your test code. It takes just takes your app and runs a custom fuzz test against it.
Another note about the location of *-Runner.app is you should be able to find it under the Products folder from Xcode but as long as you can get to it things should be fine.
Update This issue has been fixed since the original time of the post and there is no longer a need to have a xctestconfiguration file in your tests runner.

I have the similar issue. I dig little bit more, it seems the below might be the reason for test to get failed.
"Could not receive XCTest bundle ready message from testmanagerd, error code -7”
It seems the setup and teardown methods are by default run and hence passed. I am not sure about it. But, I will try to get more information from the logs.
回答3:
An easier solution to this is to change the location of the Derived data folder - (Under Xcode Preferneces -> Locations.
eg I put it in my User folder ( similar to my documents)
this error went away immediately after battling unsucessfully for hours. ( looks like an Xcode bug)
